Long Hunter is now offering the Ruger New Vaquero revolver. The Ruger New Vaquero is an entirely
new, fixed-sight single action revolver destined to exceed even the legendary performance of the original Ruger
Vaquero. It closely resembles the look and feel of classic single action revolvers of the 1800's, but with the
most modern internal mechanism and Ruger reliability.That action is then premium tuned in the U.S. by our own in
house, skilled gunsmith complete with lightened trigger and hammer springs, and no creep trigger pull - see below
for particulars.
Long Hunter offers the New Vaquero in three finishes: "Color-Case" Blued, Gloss Stainless Steel, and
Bead Blasted Stainless (at an extra charge). Ruger's
proprietary "color case" finish replicates the mottled "case hardening" found on older guns
to harden their softer steels, which is not necessary with the modern, tough steels used in all Ruger revolvers.
Stainless Steel New Vaqueros feature a high-gloss finish, simulating the attractive, but relatively fragile, nickel-plating
found on many original revolvers. The Bead Blasted Stainless Steel New Vaqueros feature a satin finish.
The Long Hunter Ruger New Vaquero features:
- Calibers: 357 Mag/38 Special, 45 Long Colt
- Barrel Lengths: 4 5/8", 5 1/2", 7 1/2"
- Mid-size steel frame and cylinder scaled
- Simulated Hard Rubber Grips
- Patented Ruger transfer bar safety mechanism and loading gate interlock, which provides an unparalleled
measure of security against accidental discharge. Extensively redesigned to offer the original "Old West"
single action look, size and feel. Blade front and notch rear sights.
- Patented Ruger reverse indexing cylinder pawl allows for easy loading and unloading.
- Traditional beveled cylinder for ease in holstering.
- Larger crescent-shaped ejector rod head in traditional form.
- Longer hammer spur
