Grampie's 50th Anniversary Present

[Grampie not Grumpie]

For our 50th wedding anniversary this past August my wife gave me Ruger Vaquero (old model 1999) .45 Colt. with a holster and belt. Posted below is the picture. I had mentioned earlier in the summer that I had seen it in the local pawn shop but didn't think I would use the holster and belt and the owner wouldn't split them up. Well she supprised me to say the least.

When she went to look at it she asked the shop owner (a friend) why I would want a gun like I already had. He replied, "How many rings do you have?" :lol:

Grampie not Grumpie,

Congratulations on your 50th. My wife and I are a few months shy of our 30th. She's the best thing that has ever happened to me. I'm sure you feel the same about your lady. Sounds to me like she's a keeper. Enjoy the next 50... Barry

Very nice looks like a Wyoming drop belt and a Cheyenne holster.
Got the same rigs in left hand and right hand myself by 5 1/2" Vaquero is blue but my Bisley Visquero is stainless. Got about 9 years till our 50th maybe I'll get something like that too. (Course she say's she liable to kill me before then.) :lol:
