I stand corrected. When I was shopping for a new vaquero they were only available in full blue (or stainless). Was not aware they were originally available in the case color finish. Carry on.

I don't believe such a gun exists. Old model vaquero's were offered with the fake case hardened frame, but new models do not have that option as far as I know.

I don't think they are saying they can't come up with the money, but rather that they feel they aren't getting anything in return for the money.

If I could afford it I would pick it up just to add it to the collection, but I wouldn't depend on it as a main match gun. Maybe run it once in a while for fun.

In my experience, decent cowboy ammo around here (Black Hills etc) is about $30-32 for a box of 50 rounds, or about $.60-65 per round. You can find reloads (I shoot Georgia Arms (http://www.georgia-arms.com) reloads myself) for $250 per 1000 rounds or $.25 per round. Huge difference.

I don't understand why people think you need a gunsmith to make non-Ruger guns work. I have been shooting Cimarron/Ubertis hard for quite a while and they are out of the box stock and the only problem I have ever had was a broken bolt/sear spring which is a quick 5 minute repair.

$395+ shipping per gun. I think shipping was $25.

There were only 60 in this run? I was thinking there were more.

Mine are serial numbers 8 & 9

Got mine today too. Why does Sass make it so hard to post pictures????

Not listed on the EMF site as far as I know. You can call and check if they have any left. They posted on Facebook a few days ago that they had six left.

Mine are supposed to arrive tomorrow. I will post puctures.

Excellent. Thank you.

Just out of curiosity, where can you get those fluted cylinders for an 1851?

Just got an email from EMF. The Schaeffer revolvers are arriving at EMF later this week. They are shipping them to customers next Tuesday (1 week from today). If you are on the pre order list you can call and place an order NOW. I just ordered myself a pair (they said you will get consecutive serial numbers). Can't wait!!

Some absolutely gorgeous iron in this here thread.

I believe they are 6 shot. Send EMF an email to get on the list. Also they are Navy grips.

About .08, by my math. In all seriousness, yes it's like the difference between .45 and .357. The .44 would be more authentic, as all 1860 Armys would have been .44. 1861 Navy's would have been .36.

Just got a confirmation from EMF that I am on the list. Now I just gotta come up with the money...

That pic is the original. The engraving on the replica is different, at least going by pictures in the final issue of GOTOW. The replica is still a gorgeous revolver.

I really want one (or two)!

Lot of good information theee. Just wanted to clear up one minor mistake you made regarding the Stoegers. The Stoeger "Supreme" has nothing to do with number of triggers. The "Supreme" Model means it has a higher grade wood stock (actually quite a bit nicer than non supreme but still nowhere near the quality of say an SKB) and better finish options such as the nickel finish you mentioned above. You can get a "Supreme" in all blue, all "nickel" (actually stainless steel), or nickel receiver/blue barrels.
