    Great commercial for a Microsoft Surface laptop....too bad it covered 90% of the pictures of the Freedom Arms!!! Good luck with your sale. Looks like an awesome set of grips to "something."

    WTT FTBH Bisley

    OR...just a thought...maybe someone here on the forum might want to trade you THEIR standard grip frame, hammer and trigger for YOUR Bisley gripframe, hammer and trigger. That way you get to keep your gun - the way YOU want it, and someone else gets to convert their gun to the way THEY want it...

    Does anybody use the Ruger branded Mitch Rosen holster

    Buckshot... For leather - Milt Sparks Inside Waistband - Summer Special II; Glaco Concealable. For kydex - Veeder LiteTuck Inside Waistband...the BEST option for me. Best of luck. Like most of us...I have a box or two FULL of previous contenders! hahahaha

    Light weight SA

    Wow...what an awesome revolver!! You said "light weight SSA." Any idea what it actually weighs? I'm trying to cobble together a light weight SSA of my own too...but cant afford to go the custom route. So far I'm down to 2lbs 3 1/4 oz...(the revolver - not me!)... Ruger Vaquero SS 45 Colt 4...

    What does your's ACTUALLY weigh??

    PriseDeFer.. Absolutely I will report back with my decision...what-ever-that-may-be. Actually, yesterday I went to a gun show hoping to handle a few New Vaqueros...HA...VERY FEW AND FAR BETWEEN. None in SS with a 4 5/8 barrel...let alone a convertible model. Either EVERYBODY wants the 5 1/5...

    What does your's ACTUALLY weigh??

    CaptBullets.. Thank you so much for taking the time to respond and weighting your New Vaqueros...that is exactly the information I was needing to make my decision on "my Perfect Packin' Pistol!" I'm really leaning toward buying a New Vaquero Stainless 4 5/8 45LC/ACP Convertible...if I can find...

    What does your's ACTUALLY weigh??

    HI all again... First I want the thank all those who commented on my dilemma/search for "my" Perfect Packin' Pistol. I have narrowed it down to a 45LC/ACP Convertible...4 5/8 bbl...bright stainless steel...and as "light weight" as possible. I want to thank all those who mentioned other...

    What does your's ACTUALLY weigh??

    Jeepnik...great advice. I think I will do just that! Once you learn how to shoot one of these things, you can actually do pretty good with it at "across-the-room" distances. Of course, that is, IF you see something "across-the-room" that needs shootin'!!! Just sayin'.

    What does your's ACTUALLY weigh??

    Jeepnik...Hahahahahaha...funny you should bring one of these up! Back in the day, I, too, carried one of these exact 22 Mag "Single Actions" ( :D ) with me constantly...I used to wear a Navy Watchcap all the time with this rolled/folded up in the front rolls of the cap. Maybe not for...

    What does your's ACTUALLY weigh??

    m657...Thank you for mentioning that and you are ABSOLUTELY correct. However, since I'll be shooting either 45LC or 45ACP out of the same gun, I thought that the total weight LOADED would be irrevelent. No matter what I end up selecting, I would be adding the same amount of ammo weight to the...

    What does your's ACTUALLY weigh??

    Hi all... Lately, I've been trying to decide on an "always with me" Ruger Single Action. I'm looking for the lightest single action I can get...however, nothing other than a regular plow handled grip frame 4 5/8 bbl 45LC/45ACP Convertible need apply. I have noticed, on-line, a New Vaquero...

    I've got somebody's gun...

    Hey Single-Sixer... Nice lookin' shooter you have there...I'm envious! I, too, will have one just like it...IF I ever run across one! But in the mean time, care to share your "bucket load?" I have several .44 Specials and always looking for another load that - perhaps - shoots better than...
