So this happened the other day.

Been interested in getting a single action revolver some day. I ran across a used Ruger Vaquero Bisley in .357 with a holster. The used cases were full and I know the revolvers and especially single action tend to move a little slower at that LGS so I was able to get what I thought was a good deal.

Man, do we ever have good and similar tastes for our S/A revolvers. ;) I have a pair of identical 45 Colt S/A revolvers, just different finishes and grips. I found a holster, which of course fits both. Your stainless revolver and leather holster matches my rig (see the pics) really closely. Good choice.👍

Congrats on your .357 Bisley. You chose a very nice gun. ~~PT7

Nice! Now get out and shoot it. That should confirm you got a good deal!

Had that very same model at one time, but found I preferred the standard plow grip on my single actions. Helpful hint: Do put a dab of paint on the silver front sight before you go out and shoot. That silver is a bugger to see. Enjoy.
