May I go packin' with the Rat Pack???
Two Vaqueros SS w/4 5/8 barrels in .45 L.C.
One New Model Single Six in SS w/ adjustable sights.
I here by and publicly profess that I Doc Workday am a DIRTY RAT ;D
And so, D.R. Greysun ambles up to the RATS Hole, bearing with him over 30 years of wisdom in shooting Rugers. The secret password is whispered into his ear, along with the number 138.
Welcome!!

Are you a Ruger shooter? Do you think that Rugers Are the Toughest Sixguns? Do you want to be one of the noble RATS?
Then put your request here, and if you shoot the Holy Black through those tank-like firearms, say so and become a DIRTY RAT!
Welcome!

Howdy Sierrra Slim Jim! I'd be glad to help but it doesn't look like you are having any problems! If you click on the "quote" button, it'll include the text of the message you are viewing in your reply. If you don't want to quote, just click on the reply button!
In the meantime, do you shoot and love your Rugers?
:D
I presently own and love 2 Vaqueros of the .357 variety....stainless with buffalo horn grips from Eagle grips....no photos, but trust me....they are quite nice....also had lighter springs installed so I could actually shoot the darn things.
AnnieLee
Howdy, Ima! Just one quick question: Do you shoot and love your Rugers?
Of course I do, I wouldn't ask to be called a RAT if I didn't! ;D
Now do I get a number?
Sign me up, I love my Rugers. ;)
Annie Lee,
Thanks for the invite Darlin'. I guess they were so upset over there at the SASS Wire about my PWDFR Posse, they suspended me! They claimed it was for other infractions, but it never happened until the PWDFR posts. Anywho, I'll do as ya suggested & post on here where I should have stayed the whole time!
Much obliged,
Badlands.
Parson Oneless and Badlands Walker, I understand your concerns, but this is a forum to praise and discuss our wonderful Rugers. Please keep the other conversation to PMs?
Yep, I'm tsking...

Howdy Badlands,
I heard what happened to you at SASS from Slim Silver. Sounds like that moderator overthere is acting heavy handed. That's a shame since I thought we were all supposed to live by the Cowboy Way. Sounds like he lost his way, especially when anyone posts anything about you and it goes away in about 60 seconds.

West Longer here and I would like to be a RAT.
I picked up my second Ruger 45LC 5.5 Stainless with Ivoy grips to match my other Ruger which has a 4.58 barrel.
I sure like how they handle my WartHog loads. Cant wait till my next shoot too show them off. ;D
So can I be a RAT. Can I? Can I? Can I? ;D
AnnieLee,
I would be much appreciative if you could add me to the list.
Thanks,

My first six-shooter was/is a Ruger single six Bisley in .22 caliber stainless 4 5/8" barrel my second was/is a Vaquero OS (Old Style) .45 cal stainless 5 1/2" barrel jest like Roy and/or Gene, my third is a .45 Cal Blued Bisley 4 5/8 " barrel I am also the proud owner of a Winchester model '94 "Trails End" in .45 Cal. Yessir, I'm almost thar all I need now is a period shotgun and a place to shoot---I'm not really looking I'm not really looking for a shotgun now as I have to "recover" the money spent on the '94 before seeking my final gun

I'm from central Florida, and I shoot S.A.S.S. with the Hatbill Gang in Titusville, Fl.
I wanna be a RATS.
I also shoot Black Powder blanks at balloons from horseback with CFCMSA.
So I guess that would make me a Dirty Blankity Blank Rat.

SSM:well i have always been straight shootin marki... just not my wire name... now it is... maybe you could tell people how to make a badge... but you can email me at straightshootinmarki@yahoo.com
Same person, huh? Hard to tell when the aliases get swapped. :o
Is that your official SASS alias? ???
I'll getcha changed.
No badges. Annie Lee Independent & I pondered long & hard on this when we started the RATS outit. We reckoned since there are no dues---then no badges. I have actually looked into badges & had a sample made up. It is pretty cool, but I have got no approval from Ruger yet if'n they would allow us to use the EAGLE like I done.
If we did start a RATS badge system, we would attach our own self-purchased (from Ruger products) EAGLE seal.
PM me your email & I'll attach a pic of the sample badge.

Thanks, Scouts are usually out front and alone so when we do come into camp to report it feels good to be with friends.

Firstly, the SASS logo is not goofy and since you have obviously not shot a SASS Ruger with a Montado Hammer you should not pass judgement on these fine cowboy guns. Secondly Bisley's are an easy shootin Six if you have short thumbs or shoot one handed.
And, pairs of Ruger SASS Vaqueros don't sell for 1600 bucks anyway so you should expect to be in the 1000 range. I shoot Bisley's in 357 & 45 and single six Bird Heads in 32 but i have not found any other of my fellow cowboy's iron's to be sub standard or any of their grip logos to be goofy.
:)
My OMV cost 500 used. The fresh off the line NMV was only 450. I chose the old one but that is because everyone has their own preference. I have big hands so it fits like a glove for me. That's me, some may prefer thinner grips and shorter hammers, that is them. When you purchase an extension of your hand do what feels right.
And welcome Mr. Fingers. I really don't have an opinion on the logo but I do love Rugers.

I put your handle on the RATS Roll this morning.

I love rugers in any configuration. I have 10/22s, Mark I pistols, Blackhawks, single sixes and vaqueros. I will only shoot Ruger sixguns because I want them to last.
I would like to be Rat(s)
Happiness is a warm Ruger.
Maj SH Long, your 25 miles east of me, I'm in Freeport.
I shoot with the Good Guys Posse north of Winnebego, tho I think most of them come down from Bristol. I was just at your fine range as a guest last month and it is a really nice range. I will try to get down there and look you up.
CW:
Look at the badge thread to find the badge order form.
It's usually the first or second one on the RATS forum.
I sent you a PM and an email also.

I am Now a "Two Gun Ruger owner" as I took Possession of a Used .32 H&R Magnum Ruger Single six complete with a Belt Mount Holster.
This Used up all the 'Discretionary funds' in the Month so I will not be able to try it out until possibly next Month.
This "Possession took place September 20th due to the Shop being closed between the 16th and the 20th due to multiple sick shop personnel
Just in time for my Birthday Anniversary on Sept. 21st, my 74th.
Also, my "R.A.T.S. Reserve" Badge Arrived and it looks GREAT! I am Planning to Purchase a Badge Wallet to carry it in, hopefully one that I can hang off my belt or a Pocket to display the Badge when appropriate.
So Far A Good Birthday for me.
Best Regards,
