Dee Mak Jack, SASS #55905 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 I have a set of 357 vaquero's with 45/8 barrels. How can I find out how many of this particular model were made.. Must be kinda rare as I have not seen many of them at shoots. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doc roy l. pain Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 357’s vaqueros are extremely common at sass matches. Might even be the most shot revolvers in the game. Unless yours were a special run or variation by some distributors they are readily available to purchase. Might be helpful if you mentioned whether original model or new. A couple pics would help. I’m sure with the first few digits of the serial numbers someone on this site could give you more info on build date and numbers produced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Meadows,SASS#28485L Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Ruger Vaquero's and New Model Vaquero's with 4 5/8" barrels are probably the most used gun in Cowboy action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caladisi kid Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Just check the Ruger website for serial number listing the date of production, no production #'s though, easy peasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marauder SASS #13056 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 The Vaqueros with 45/8 barrels have 5.625 inch barrels as I recall. Slightly longer than the 5 and 1/2 inch barrels. 45 Divided by 8 . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
