This is a great pistol. Buds did an awesome job as usual. Got it very quickly. This pistol is built like a tank. Very accurate. Thank you buds.

Ruger Vaquero 357 magnum is a beautiful old fashion cowboy revolver. I will always buy weapons from Bud Gun Shop. I wish they could find a way to count your debit card as cash so customer can get the cash discount. Highly recommend this gun and Bud Gun Shop.

Absolute Perfection! I have always loved Ruger revolvers, but the stainless Vaqueros are simply the perfect mating of appearance and function. Doing business with Buds on the guns was an absolute pleasure. Thank you Ruger and Thank you Buds!

I love this gun. Single action revolvers are the best. Bud's service was excellent, as always.

I would highly recommend the Ruger Vaquero 357 magnum. It is a great alternative to a Colt SAA that is safer to use, much cheaper to purchase but is very well built. It also has a great trigger and is very accurate.

It is Ruger Vaquero..one of best Revolvers in production..heavy, action is smooth, came flawless, I little bit of clean and ready to action, shots accurate..depending how many rounds of caffeine you have.. but definitely one of those weapons that are passed from generation to generation. Came in a plastic box.. no big deal..but You should buy a display case to show it off.

Buds Gun Shop promptly transferred the Ruger Vaquero 357 to my local gun shop. The Vaquero is an excellent looking gun and was received in exceptional condition. The gun functions falsely out of the box. I am looking to purchase the Vaquero in the 45 version to add to my collection and will certainly shop at Buds. Thank you for a very satisfying purchase of a great gun.

Some may not like the bright finish of the Ruger Vaquero, but I do. Fit and finish is terrific. I do like the size of the old Vaquero frame a bit better; my .44 magnum just feels right to me. Nevertheless, the Ruger Vaquero is a substantial piece of steel and will last life times. Some may ask why someone would buy an SA revolver and I say, "Why not?" The demand elongated the wait time for the revolver, but the wait was worth it. The Bud's experience is an easy one.

Nice old school single action revolver. Fun to shoot and because of the added safety features easier for friends to shoot than my SAA Taylors & Company Smokewagon 45LC replica. It along with my Henry Big Boy in 357 completes my medium caliber Cowboy action collection. It looks just like the Colt SAA replica which is what I wanted. Quality is high, everything fits precisely and it shoots right on target. I just may need another one in the blued version. Highly recommend.

The Ruger Vaquero has a very nice fit and finish and shoots right on target! All as expected with a Ruger revolver, good quality!

If you’re an old wheel gun kinda guy (or girl) then this gun is a must have for your arsenal. They don’t come better looking, and you’ll be driving tacks @ 30 yards. Don’t hesitate on this gun.

A truly beautiful firearm and another great transaction with Buds. Solid, smooth action, rugged and hits to point of aim with 38 powered rounds. Cylinder spins like butter - a testament to the exceptional quality and tight tolerances. Initially hurt to write the check, but well worth it with no regret. I have a few high quality semi-autos, but there is just something about this Vaquero that just draws me to it.

This is my first single action revolver. Although I have only taken it to the range twice I love it. The gun seemed a little heavy at first but when you shoot it you will appreciate the weight because there is little kick when shooting 38 special ammo. Then gun seems to be built like a tank and I do not anticipate having anything but fun with it.

Buds does it again! The Vaquero is rock solid and was perfect. What else can you say about a legendary pistol. Buds was phenomenal as always. Probably the smoothest fastest transaction I've ever had. Even for them is was stellar. Don't shop anywhere else bud Bud's. Also thanks for your support of Hickok45. Best reviewer on the web!

I‘m in love with this gun. By far the best option in the Ruger catalog. Very stylish and shoots like a dream. Actually managed to conceal this pistol quite well despite its size. The gun seems to be balanced in a way that makes it feel like there‘s less gun there than there really is. I recommend finding someone who will let you try it out first though. It‘s entirely possible that my positive experience concealing this weapon is an anomaly. Regardless, it shoots too good not to own. Would be fine just to shoot at the range or hunt with.

I have purchased the Ruger Vaquero in the .357/.38 caliber. It shot so smooth. The gun is heavy and this helps to lessen the recoil when shooting. This makes the gun great to shoot in SASS competitions because the light recoil allows you get back on target quickly. Love my Rugers.

Excellent revolver. It came in perfect shape and Bud’s shipped next day. A+

The Vaquero arrived in perfect condition and shoots modern FMJ .38 spcl & .357 Mag with ease. It is a pleasure to shoot with the heavy weight. I’ve used it in a couple small local competitions and the gun has run flawlessly in the Washington Desert. For the price it’s an outstanding gun. I’d recommend it, and I’d recommend Bud’s Guns.
