Should I be ashamed to admit I like this?????

It doesn't matter regardless cuz I still like it anyway.

I totally dig the aged finish. It reminds me of a Big Bore Gary Reeder 'BACKPACKER' custom I saw in a magazine a few years back.

.45 Long Colt
Droooool.......

'cept I'm not all that keen for a Beretta stamped revolver!

Ashamed? HELL NO! Birdshead grips on a Vaquero or Rodeo would be and awesome setup. Come to really dark side known as single action six shooters.

Didn't beretta buy uberti?..............

I could live without the grips . . . LOL

Probably shoots nice, but them grips . . . . LOL

It's the short barrel and finish that strikes me.

And...edit to my OP - It reminds me of the Gary Reeder 'BACKPACKER'

Of course this.....with a similar finish job wold look sharp as well.......and it'd be a Ruger (I'm fond of Ruger wheelies!)

Funny you posted this today. When I came into to surf the net, I mean work, I was eyeing up something like this for a next purchase. Maybe even something like a Ruger Blackhawk in 45 Colt.

Prolly about 2 years ago I passed up a 3" US Firearms 45 Colt for $600. With a birdshead grip it would've been really neat. The only thing I didn't like was the lack of an ejector rod.

High on my list though is a 3 1/2 -4 inch with birdshead grip and an ejector rod in 45 or 44 Special. I just want it to say Colt, Ruger or US Firearms on the frame.
