    It sure was hard to pass up some of the UNFIRED Colt SSA 45 Colts he had sitting there. I was tempted to come home, grab a bunch of stuff from the safe and do some serious trading.

    I know it was commemorative stuff, but it sure would be nice to own for the future!

    I have one in 44 Winchester. The early (pre 2005) ones are larger and heavier.

    I have two 45 Colt NEW VAQUEROS that are more like the original 1873.

    Can never have too many.

    I have a Colt and a Great Western, both 45 Colt, and they get shot a lot. I'd like to find a used Vaquero to go with them.

    Need some shells in that belt, otherwise perfect.

    I have never held the "birds head", I think it is called before. In fact never saw one in a store ever.
