Let me see your Vaquero

[DDubya]

Here are my CAS guns, a pair of .44 Special Vaqueros with 4 5/8" barrels and consecutive serial numbers.

Put together from parts. 44 Magnum ejectorless.

That is a beaut REP! All it needs to be perfect is a SBH hammer or maybe a Bisley...

Hey Doug, Do you have to have one of the good gunsmiths convert a Vaquero to this Montado version???

My gun started life as a New Vaquero/Montado. Alan Harton fit the birdshead grip, the S&W adjustable rear sight and Alan's custom front sight base and patridge post. He also gave me a buttery smooth action job with a light, crisp trigger. The Colt style crescent moon ejector rod buttonwas also added, as well as the black powder chamfer.

Alan is considered one of the best gunsmiths around. I wouldn't trust just anyone with work Alan did for me, especially the rear sight addition.

WOW! What an assortment of beautiful shootin' irons. And, the photos are superb. Art gallery quality. Thanks to all for sharing.

I've got six Ruger Single Actions revolvers but only one, just acquired, Vaquero. It's a Montado .357 pictured here with a Super Blackhawk .44 Magnum.

Forgive the pedestrian arrainged, poor quality photo which pales in comparison to others here.

357 original model. 4 5/8" bbl. CCH frame. really want a 9mm cylinder for it now!

The pig sticker is from Louie Lloyd out of Byram, MS. we have 3 of his knives and they are TOP shelf!!

Next Vaquero is gonna need to be a 4 5/8" 44 special. Then maybe a 45 convertible.

I cant say. They were supposed to be unfired when I bought them. One is questionable, the other just has the powder mark around the face of 1 chamber as it left the factory.
These were "investments" as I knew just how rare they were and thought they would make good trading fodder in the future. 8)

I have the buckeyes and the 10mm shoot like champs. The 40 should do the same.
