They also made some Sheriffs in .45C with Birdshead grips.  I had a stainless one about 2 yrs. ago but let it get away.

Frank,I did grab it.Its nice to have another Older Vaquero. ;)If I find any of the Older Models in the gun shop from here out I'm going to buy them in 45 and 44.I think Ruger should never have quit making them,and they are holding there value very well.

True but the large framed ones are more often than not being called "old model" to distinguish them from the newer smaller framed ones.

I'd love to have a 2" New Vaquero SS in .45 Colt.  I know all it takes is money.  ;)

Dave, great, congratulations You'll enjoy it.
