Does anyone sell a Ruger SBH hammer already configured for a Vaquero owner that wishes to remove their transfer bar? - Asking for a friend ;)

Not that I've seen.  It would also require a trigger to work with a half cock notch, to be able to load, to keep the firing pin out of the way of the cartridge rims.  Power Custom makes a trigger/hammer kit, but it is in the regular Blackhawk profile AND still utilizes the transfer bar.  This would be the closest I've seen and you could weld up the hammer and take the transfer bar out.

At the price of a "kit" like this, there are smith's out there that do the work for about the same amount of money.

 

Probably limited demand, cost and maximum liability are keeping a drop in kit from becoming a thing.

I bought the kit Fireball is referring to so I would have go-rounds...…..I'm a trigger puller. So all I had to do was fill the void in the hammer and take out the transfer bars. So it works for sure but like he said you may not save any money going that route.

 

I did it since I already had them in the guns for years.

Good folks to deal with.

it says the spring and plunger is sold separately--can you just use the original ones?

Yes you can-That's what I did when I installed the half-cock conversion in my .44 OMV.

I have never had any issues in the 15+ years they have been installed.
