I picked up , or at least ordered, a new birdshead Vaquero in 44 magnum today. Yep. Looks like Rugers done a limited run of large frame birdshead 3 1/2" stainless Vaqueros in 44 mag. The small frame guns are nice and I have a few already but not everyone is a Colt SAA fan and I prefer the big Blackhawck grip and cylinder . Ive been trying to find a 45 Colt old model Vaquero SS birdhead for years because I usually load at 44 mag levels. . This is even better. Weird thing is they marked then New Vaquero and used the big frame.
