Manufacturer: Ruger Type: Revolver/Single Action Model: Vaquero Caliber: .357 Mag Barrel Length: 4.5" Optics: N/A ATF Form 4473 Required: Yes Log: 2606 Serial Number (S/N): 512-52450 Reference Number (Ref #): N/A The Ruger Vaquero, a single action revolver introduced by Sturm, Ruger & Co. in 1993, draws inspiration from the classic Colt Single Action Army, tailored for cowboy action shooting and traditional revolver enthusiasts. Chambered in .357 Mag, among other calibers, the Vaquero combines Old West aesthetics with Ruger’s modern durability, featuring a robust frame and reliable action. Designed as a safer, more affordable alternative to vintage designs, it has become a favorite for sport shooters and collectors alike. This example, serial number 51252450, features a 4.5" barrel chambered in .357 Mag, offering a balance of maneuverability and power for range or field use. It includes fixed sights, a blued steel finish, and a hardwood grip, typical of the original Vaquero design, weighing approximately 40 ounces and measuring about 10.25" overall. The single action mechanism requires manual cocking before each shot, paired with Ruger’s transfer bar safety for secure carry. It comes with a case and lock for storage and protection. In good condition, this Ruger Vaquero shows moderate wear consistent with use, yet functions properly with a sound cylinder and action. Manufactured in 2006, based on the "512" prefix per Ruger’s serial numbering records for the Vaquero, it reflects a mid-run production of the model. With its case and lock included, this revolver offers a practical and authentic package for shooters or collectors seeking a classic .357 Mag single action.
