As much as I like my Rugers I have to admit they are not correct but then again we have people in NCOWS wearing hats shaped wrong, boots that are not correct, gunleather that is stitched with nylon thread on modern sewing machines, Cheyenne style holsters without toe plugs when the originals almost always had it, etc,etc,etc. I will always notice the gun leather because I do leathercraft but the point is we remember it's all for fun. Even the new clothes we buy are probably made from different materials and dyes used in the thread.
I was glad to see them make the new Vaquero, at least it's closer.
