Dee Mak Jack, SASS #55905 24 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 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 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doc roy l. pain 513 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 357’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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Johnny Meadows,SASS#28485L 390 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Ruger Vaquero's and New Model Vaquero's with 4 5/8" barrels are probably the most used gun in Cowboy action. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Caladisi kid 6 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Just check the Ruger website for serial number listing the date of production, no production #'s though, easy peasy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Marauder SASS #13056 1,126 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 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 . . . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
