    Double action, or another single action?

    .357 Vaquero all the way:) If it's purely for range fun, you can't beat a fixed sight single action, if for nothing else than cool factor. If you can get away from .357 as a requirement I'd go with a .45 ACP-LC convertible 5.5" Vaquero, I have one and it's a blast to shoot .45 ACP through a...

    Ahhhhhh...my new Ruger Vaquero birdshead...

    My blued .45 ACP Birdshead arrived with a bent front sight blade and rust damage on the butt....... I was wondering why it was hitting to the left the first time out......then saw the blade was bent to the right.....I have yet to attempt to knock it straight. I was planning to have it hard...

    Can I shoot this Security Six? Would You?

    Did these guns receive a little better fit and finish, to ensure they live up to the name stamped on them:) It wouldn't be cool to have a "Police Marksmen's Association" Security Six that wasn't a tack driver

    GP100 in 38 Special

    Are you sure it was a 6" and not one of the Davidson's 4" .38 adjustable sight models? I am 99.9% sure no 6" GP100 chambered for .38 Special was ever made, if it was in fact a 6" RUN don't walk back there and buy it.......because it's the first one ever spotted.

    Revolvers at Cabela's

    Support your local small gun shops, and keep the money in your own local economy.....Id rather put the money in my neighbors pocket and have a gun shop owner that actually knows me, rather than support some multi billion dollar faceless conglomerate who hires revolving door $8 an hour employees...

    Ruger GPNY Info needed

    I just won an NY-1 S&W 64 on GunBroker, I seem to accidently by starting an NYPD collection:) I also have a P89 DAO that was an unfired over run for the NYPD. I didn't pay a "premium" for any, I got my GPNY from a guy selling his guns to fund his daughters wedding, I don't think I paid more...

    Ruger GPNY Info needed

    I have one, a 4" that has been carried a lot:) These were an approved sidearm for new NYPD recruits at one time, I don't know exact years but I believe 1988-1992, they were authorized at the same time as the 64-5 NY-1's. It seems S&W was the more dominant choice so not many Rugers were...

    Ruger LCRX

    Is the hammer difficult to cock without changing your grip like an SP101?

    Is there a collector value to a Speed Six with

    Yes! 3" Speed Sixes are rare, someone would probably pay $700+ for it. Lets see a pic!

    It doesn't look right with the large Lett grip, IMO....

    grip frame on a 4" Redhawk

    The only thing I would change about my 4" Redhawk is the lack of the replaceable plunger front sight. The red insert pinned on sight looks like an afterthought.
