Default New shootin irons

Howdy Pards

Well, after a few months of design and work, they are finished.

These are New Ruger Vaqueros in 357/38 that started out at 5.5" guns.

The guns were given to my Pard Cowboy Gunsmith and the work started.
First the sights were removed, then they were cut to 3.5", the actions were not only tuned, but they were short stoked, front sight was reattached and sighted in as cut as needed at the range. Custom Brass caps were than attached to the front sights with a special epoxy (supplied by the make of the sight caps) and let dry fro 48 hrs.
They were then trimmed to the front sight.
Two sets of Real Sambar stag grips were added and we were ready to Almost go.
I than had the hammers jeweled, the Cylinder, pins, cylinder rod, ejector rod and shroud were all fail-zeroed.

The guns are fast, smoooooth and not bad looking......

Here they are:








Well that is my story and I am sticking to it

until next time

The biggest pain in the a** you'll probably ever have to deal with watches you from the mirror every morning.

Good judgment comes from experience, and most of that comes from bad judgment.

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging.
