I ware a Ruger Vaquero 45 LC with a seven and a half inch barrel, my rig was custom made for me as was my belts, one belt has 50 loops for horse back riding, camping, hiking or prospecting, the other has 12 loops for around town. I do tho dress, think talk, eat and sleep Cowboy! My firearm fits my hand vary well and just feels right, I ware boots and a cowboy hat most of the time and I get more thumbs up then down, matter of fact I have had on more then one occasion parents stop me so there kids can see what a Cowboy looks like, or to take my picture, but I do live in Az. The way I look at it is, if I can`t stop a bad guy with six shots, it should slow him down enough to reload, if the next six don`t work, either he can`t be stopped or I need a lot more range time, either way i`m a dead man!
