Really nice guns Bill. I've been shooting the original larger frame fixed sight Vaqueros for years. Bought my first one about 95' then a couple more a year or two later later. I bought them thinking I would like to do some Cowboy Action stuff but changed my mind after going to a couple shoots. Shooting is always a good time where ever it's done and I liked the concept with the shooting stages and all, but the fashion show part ( guy dressed up like the Lone Ranger complete with grey tights) and the anemic loadings and then calling it "real", well, it just wasn't my cup of tea. In the last couple years I've picked up a couple adjustable sight revolvers, a Bisley Blackhawk and a Ruger RH and I gotta tell ya, I can just plain shoot them better. Has nothing to do with my eyesight either, they're just easier to hit with. I like the adjustable sights so much better I'm thinking about sending my Bisley Vaquero to someone like Bowen or Stroh and have them install a set on it as well. I think the 4 5/8" Bisley, high polish stainless with blued adjustable sights would not only look great but be a great packin gun. By the way these are all 45 colt. The only 44mag I had was a 3 screw SBH 7 1/2incher that I had for decades but couldn't hit the state of Washington with. Gave it to my son. The conclusion for me is, if it's a "workin" gun, it really needs adjustable sights.
