Birdshead Vaquero I just picked up

[ian03]

Some of you have seen this in my other thread but I feel like making a new thread over here to show this off. It's a 4 5/8ths .357 Birdshead Vaquero. I like it just the way it is, however if any of you have pics of a similar gun with white/ivory grips, I'd love to check it out, thanks.

That's nice! Those birdshead guns are my favorite Vaqueros.

I saw your other post,, and I will say a lot of us would love to have such a nice rare Ruger. You did extremely well!

Well to be honest I am far from a collector I just wanted a shooter. I'll pass it on to one of you guys one day I'm sure.

Anybody ever bought grips from Cowboy-Emporium.com??

I just found these on their site and was hoping I could see them on a gun before I bought them.

Here's my NM Blackhawk with brass and Sambar Stag. I fitted the Brass Grip Frame and had Charles Spresser of Tenn. fit the Stag.

I haven't been to Riley's for a while, but had I seen that first it would be headed south of there.

Nice looking Vaquero.

Sorry but mine has black grips too. Only difference is that mine is a S6 in 32 H&R mag.
