The Short Spur Ruger Vaquero Limited Edition
Ever since I saw movies like Tombstone and played video games like Fallout: New Vegas, I had always wanted one of those classic, fire spittin', gunslinger revolvers complete with the perfect balance for spins and tricks and quick draw capabilities. I didn't get a chance to get my hands on such a revolver though until about last year when one of these showed up at my local gun store. I immediately put it on layaway, but this time I insisted on putting as much cash monthly as I could get away with in order to get it into my possession sooner than normal. Don't have "The Big Iron" yet, but I vow I will get one as soon as I can. Even if I have to kidnap a virgin woman and feed her to a Eldritch Outer God to get it. xD
The Short Spur Ruger Vaquero Limited Edition also came in .357 magnum and I admit if this gun had been, I would have likely been more on the fence on getting it. I know the New Vegas revolver was in .357 magnum, but .45 Long Colt just feels more.... right, more authentic.
Did a few spins and a trick as soon as I got it home. I could perform the Road Agent's spin quite well, as well as a few back spins, but several forward spins will take a bit of practice, I lose momentum after the first couple of spins. xD

Yeap, not shaming or lookin' down on anyone who gets these kinda revolvers in .357 Mag. It's overall cheaper, more convenient and just as effective. I'm just a sucker for more iconic American calibers.
When people are asked (Especially foreign.) "what's the most famous American handgun cartridge?" Most people will at least say 45, likely not specifying which 45, but usually at least half are thinking the M1911/M1911A1 with the other half the Single Action Army. xD
