Off and on I get the idea of buying a 5 1/2" Ruger Vaquero. I doubt I'll ever shoot CAS, but SAAs and their clones are just cool.
 
Holy MOly... I'll have to find the time to take pictures of all my CAS guns.

Love that Trapdoor. How well does it shoot?

I think I read that the sights are set for 300 yards because it shoots high at 100. So once I compensate for that, it's a tack driver.

It's pretty heavy so it takes up the recoil of the .45-70 just fine. You could shoot it all day without much of a problem. NOT like Goose's .45-70 which weighs in at about a pound and a half and will tear right thru your shoulder. [smile]

There's something 'special' about shooting it. It's like nothing I've got.

Well here is the aforementioned firearm. I don't know if it qualifies as a Cowboy action Gun, but it is a single shot .45-70 and my favorite gun. H&R Buffalo Rifle.

That looks like some nice leather. What brand is it?

http://www.sanpedrosaddlery.com/ For the holsters it's his Tombstone line, which is budget, but not cheap. The belt is just one of his regular cartridge belts. Entire cost was approx $200.

He is sloooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwww, but it is guaranteed for life no matter how bit or small you waste line becomes. He will modify at no charge.

I think it absolutely qualifies. Great looking rifle. I've been considering a rifle in .45-70. The Pedersoli Springfield Trapdoor looks very cool.

I thought I'd dredge up this old thread. I was taking some photos this weekend and realized that I really didn't have any decent ones of the cowboy guns.

Spartan Coach Gun (12 gauge) and Ruger Vaquero (.44-40)

I think the Uberti rifles have some of the nicest wood I've seen on any rifle.

Thanks for looking,

Chris
