SA Cowboy guns
I have been thinking of picking up a SA revolver to play around with... Just plinking, showing off, etc... I would like one with a case hardened receiver... Could you guys give me some options??? I am familiar with the Ruger Vaquero and Taurus Gaucho... I don't mind spending money if it means a substantial upgrade... Someone mentioned to me that Berretta is making a real nice one this year?

Here is my favorite company building them.... http://www.usfirearms.com/ They have a Rodeo version that is used in the SAA alot. The US Firearms are as close as you can get these days to the originial colts.

RE: SA Cowboy guns
just got the rodeo for x mas in 44 special..........its worth it. i own rugers also and even though the old model vaqueros are stronger they dont compare in the finish dept....and im speaking of the rodeo not their fancier versions. in lock up, metal work, and bore and throat diameters the usfa is a superior gun if you want a replica thats as close to a colt as you're going to get. mine is spot on in every way and it shoots like a house on fire. just remember a true s.a.a. has different lockwork than a ruger and their are differences in the operation you need to be mindfull of.
