You cats are killin' me with all these Birdshead Vaqueros pics'............


........... makes me regret trading away the two .45's I had! :roll:

Back around '03 when I bought my Vaquero, I had the choice of a birdshead, or several others. For my uses, the birdshead just won't work. Barrel was too short, and I didn't like the feel.

But now I wish I'd bought a couple of those, too. They sell pretty easy, and at decent prices. Seems like back then the gunshop I frequent had a hard time selling them.

Oh, to keep this post on topic, I still have the Vaquero I bought back then, and it still shoots great. No problems whatsoever, although I've done a fair bit of alterations to it to suit my fancy.

I love the SBH hammers , they are on all my Ruger SA . The lower and wider thumb rest is great for hunting or target work , but the wide thumb rest is not good on slip hammering or one handed shooting , that is why I narrow the ones on my race guns . I had bisley on all my guns and change them to the SBH . The angle is a very slight different and the SBH cock easier for me
