Have exactly what you described to a "Tee".....28" Fox "B" with no cracks or broken wood (checkered Walnut), has extractors only (you pull).....not "ejectors" as Deerstalkers. Solid, tight gun with orange Pachmayr recoil pad. It's bluing and case hardening is worn a bit from use, handling & age...

That "Made in the USA" label on the box and the boot itself sure is pretty !

Not shooting a firearm I owned would make for a sad life for me.............I also I believe in marriage consummation too.

Check that cylinder gap, lots of powder residue showing on the pistol and scope. Very nice, I think the drill/tap enhances the value especially with that barrel length.......just my opinion though.

That's the #1 reason I bought the NV, just plain got tired of fighting the old system everytime I went to reload. I have a few Colt SA's and the NV's falls in line with them......no changing of old habits :wink:

Thanks for the PM and pictures :wink:

If your rebluing/refinishing you'll not get to enjoy the full enjoyment of owning it....cost-wise it will be prohibited unless you do it as a profession, if not touch it up yourself and enjoy it. Let the next generation of owners restore it at their expense. I was taught "If you want pretty...

There's a old poker players saying about playing a hand "think long-think wrong"...........don't think long on that pistol [wink]

Am interested in the Desantis, send pictures to PM for me. Thanks

Oh well my luck, don't understand the PM problems though, your the second person telling me this ?? On the brighter-side I guess I am saving money :lol:

I've never seen a 7 1/2" barrel on a Vaquero so I'd say it is somewhat rare, how rare I'm not sure. With all of the original components and not knowing the true graders condition I'm guessing $650 on the low end, a plus is it's S/S which can be polished by hand to removed minor scratches. As...

I've owned many different type "Non Tactical" firearms in my day, pretty ones, ugly ones, expensive ones, cheap ones but will say this is about the prettiest firearm my eyes have ever seen, sadly I own too many now and trying to downsize a bit myself. Again...very beautiful, good luck.

Tip: Sell them to a U.S serviceman or several servicemen stationed in Germany, any other way will be a huge headache for the widow, yourself and the buyer here in the States.

Along with my 4 5/8 Blackhawk .357, I have a New Model Vaquero .357 in 4 5/8, also a Uberti Regulator .357 in 5 1/2" and a Uberti El Patron .45 in 6 1/2".........to me the shorter 4 5/8" barrels are ideal for carry when walking or driving with a crossdraw........hassle/tangle free and very...

My favorite too :mrgreen: ....357 with a 4 5/8 barrel length.....you did good :wink:
