I just got home from Kiesler's Gun Shop. I wanted to have a look at the Marlin lever action my wife has ordered me for our anniversary and she wanted to look at a "mottled" finish (case hardened finish) Vaquero. I looked at the Marlins and was satisfied. I looked over at her and she had stopped in front of the show case with the 1873 Colt Peacemakers in it. I asked to see a couple with the case hardened finish and I was simply amazed. The new (or "old") Peacemakers just might be the finest revolvers I've ever held. Every single one that I picked up was the same~~perfect lock-up and truly butter smooth action that put the Vaqueros to shame. This is one fine revolver! She settled on the 3.5 inch barrel .38/.357 model. She's thinking about it, but I told her to pick...and then I stood back. That's the best way to insure that your wife is going to get a pistol with which, she's going to be happy.
I just wanted to know if anyone has one of these beauties and of course, if you're happy with it. This is a fine, FINE pistol. (I guess you can tell ~I'm impressed! )
