Very nice!
I've grown fond of the Birdshead grips and you have a fine showing there.
As of a couple of weeks ago I added another to my Ruger stable. I have a polished stainless .45 Colt BH and wanted to add a CCH to my humble collection of Vaqueros and New Vaqueros. A Ruger collector helped make it happen, so I now have my CCH Vaquero like your #3.

Thanks for sharing.

I have a new Ruger single six and would like to have a birdshead grip installed and the barrel shortened from 5 1/2" to 4 3/4" and sight reinstalled.
My Ruger is a new stainless with fixed sights 22lr/22mag 5 1/2" barrel.
Where can I have this done?

I think I got my grip frame from Midway and my local gunsmith did the barrel chop (Thanks Jim). The Bisley hammer came from Midway. I did the hammer and grip frame fitting.

I really like the case coloring,outstanding !
I have never shot one with the birds head grips, they are mainly for one handed shooting i assume ?

I love the birdshead , they fit me perfect . These are not target loads , they are loaded for SASS/CAS fps and test fire . The factory NEVER offered the BH in these cal .
