About Ruger Vaquero
Original Old West Single-Action Look, Size and Feel. Since its introduction in 1993, the Ruger Vaquero has dominated the cowboy action shooting world and earned its reputation for rugged reliability due to its strength and mechanical superiority. It is often referred to as "the gun that won the New West" because of its widespread popularity among single-action shooters and cowboy action competitors. The Ruger Vaquero combines the original Old West single-action look and feel with new features. The mid-size steel frame and cylinder are scaled-down to the same size as the original 1955 Ruger Blackhawk, closely resembling the classic single-action revolvers of the late 1800's.

Detailed Review
The Ruger Vaquero is a single-action revolver design that was introduced by Sturm, Ruger in 1993. This gun is modeled after the legendary single-action revolvers that were used by cowboys and lawmen during the 19th century. The Vaquero is available in several different calibers including .357 Magnum, .44 Magnum, and .45 Long Colt. The barrel length can vary from 4.62 inches to 7.5 inches depending on the model. One of the most unique features of the Vaquero is its traditional western-style design. The gun features a blued or stainless steel finish and comes with a western-style grip that is comfortable and easy to handle. The gun also has fixed sights that are adjustable for windage and elevation. The Vaquero has a transfer bar safety system that prevents the hammer from contacting the firing pin unless the trigger is pulled. This safety feature makes the gun safer to use and helps prevent accidental discharges. Another great feature of the Vaquero is its accuracy. The gun is designed to be very accurate at short ranges, making it an ideal choice for cowboy action shooting competitions or hunting small game. Overall, the Ruger Vaquero is a classic revolver design that combines performance, reliability, and style. It is a great choice for anyone looking for a traditional western-style gun that is both fun to shoot and highly functional.

Love the .45 LC, nice offering from Ruger. I have done some mods to it to meet my aesthetic needs, but a solid piece.

This has become my favorite gun to shoot. Still accurate shooting outdoors at 75', and cleans up nicely. Love the 45 LC round. Eagerly plotting my next purchase from Buds - product arrived quickly and without issue.
