Howdy, ladies and gents. Recon you can count me in as an official like RAT. Got me two of em, a Vaquero with 4 5/8ths barrel and a New Vaquero with a 5 1/2 barrel. Love em both. Hard to beat a Ruger for out of the box shootability and long term reliability. Always on the lookout for a new one if the price is right. I'm guessin that with the New Vaqueros the prices on the old models will get more and more "right". Glad to be here and in such august company.
