what's with the yellow?

GregM · 01-20-2010, 12:03 PM

Just a protective plastic disk they put in there. I haven't taken it out yet

no rear sights?

GregM · 01-21-2010, 06:11 AM

Yep, but they are not adjustable

The difference....

The real difference is on the barrel. This is a Vaquero, not a New Model Vaquero, so normally the "Bible" is on the side of the barrel and detracts from the looks (IMO). It's what always held me back from buying this gun. I saw this one on Gun Broker and noticed the lack of stuff on the barrel so I wrote and inquired and had him take a close up of the barrel and sure enough the writing is on the bottom of the barrel like a NM Vaquero. I bought it when I saw that picture.
I had been looking at Cimarron Thunderers in stainless but really want a Ruger the whole time. Plus the Vaquero is much cheaper
