I have never owned a single action revolver. Have had a yearning for one for a LOOOONG time. Trouble is, I'm not sure which direction to go...
Ruger or something else?
Vaquero or blackhawk or redhawk? SAA clone?
Stainless or blue?
Bisley grips?
Adjustable sights?
About the only thing I have decided on is to go for a barrel length less than or equal to six inches, and caliber 45 Colt.
This gun would see most use at the range for plinking, and as a trail gun when I go fishing. It would also serve as the back-up to my primary handgun, which is aColt 1911 in 45ACP.
Pitfalls to avoid and gun recommendations will be most appreciated.
I want to keep the purchase price right around $400.
Please help me make a good choice.
Thanks.
