Ruger Old Model Vaquero / Custom Grips

[girphoto]

Well howdy pard's

after shooting short sherif models (3.5") I have decide to go to Old Model Vaqueros 357 Cal. in the 4 5/8" Color Case Hardened.


The guns also have custom grips checkered by my friend Tim at Old Laser Graphics.

When you get old eyes, you need every advantage tat you can get.
A lot of cowboy shooters add a Brass Clip to their front sight with a glue that is like iron when out dries.
The gun then goes to the range with a portable Dermel and is cut to size and shape.
The rear sight is then opened with the same Dremel and a different bit to accommodate the wider front sight.

All SASS legal and easier to see. Some shooters have their front sight GOLD plated but I prefer the clip and glue type.

Thanks for the nice comments, the gun shoots great and I have another on the way to make a pair of 4 5/8.
Both guns will then be Short stroked for faster shooting and the second, third , fourth and fifth shots.
