Well, blued it is............................... Ruger Vaquero .357 with a 5.5" barrel.................should be here in a week or so. I know the 357/38 isn't a classic cowboy action caliber, but it's cheaper to feed than a 44-40 or 45 colt and it's my first single action. My pair of stainless .357 Vaqueros ![[Linked Image]](https://s17.postimg.cc/7v21nl73z/5881839_E-1121-498_F-8_A22-1488_C5_FDF490.jpg) free photo hosting![[Linked Image]](https://s17.postimg.cc/6392so0lr/8_D61_B546-_FBF9-4558-8843-_E4_B964_CF4_B9_D.jpg) Those are sweet! How about posting the photo of the birds head with the elk grips again. I went to show it to my wife yesterday, yes, I'm already working on a second one, and the photo isn't loading.
Sig Sauer, to hell and back reliable.
Whatever suits you just tickles me plum to death.
Can I refill your eggnog for you? Get you something to eat? Drive you out to the middle of nowhere and leave you for dead?

I shot .38 special out of both. Since the BH had adjustable sights, I had to shoot in the "modern" class. Everyone started shooting Vaqueros and Colt SAAs with fixed sights and I ended up being the only one shooting a modern gun and it wasn't fun winning my class every month since I was the only one in it. Shoulda stepped down prob woulda beat everybody's ass anyway and felt better bout it

Shoulda stepped down prob woulda beat everybody's ass anyway and felt better bout it At the time I couldn't afford a new revolver. So I talked them into letting me shoot the traditional class with my Colt Navy replica black powder revolver....I won . A few of them complained about it and the next month told me I'd have to shoot the BP class. Again, I woulda been the only one shooting, so I bought a Uberti in .357. Back then the matches were set up so you only needed 1 revolver. When they went to two, I quit shooting because I was recently divorced and broke.

Very nice don't know what it is about the birds head, but I have an itch for one of those also.
Do not regret growing older, it's a privilege denied to many!
