I understand there are a few birdshead lovers out there.
Looks pretty cool.

Mee too..didn't like the 'traditional' "Bird's Head" I tried in a 357/38 Uberti DID like the somewhat different 'Thunderer' grip..bought that one.
Thats a cool rig.
Can confirm, in .45. Cocking left handed is quicker in dry fire, but on the range, it kicks high enough I'm not sure it makes a real difference.CDFingers wrote: You can hook your ring finger in there at the bottom of the grip and it's stable enough to cock the weapon while bringing the trigger finger into proper position. Barrel should be five or shorter to get the maximum efficacy of this design.
Yes, yes you do. That Vaquero's a beaut. I've been skeptical about the appearance of the synthetic birdsheads on the Wranglers, but walnut would look good. Still holding out for the Bearcat shopkeeper, hahahaha.SubRosa wrote: It feels pretty good. I love birdshead grip guns, and got one of the first ones out.
"Charcoal" matte finish, walnut grips, and it shoots much better than my first Wrangler.
A nice mate to my .45ACP Vaquero birdshead.
I need to get some pix on here.

Very few rounds thru it, I should have the original box/papers here somewhere.
I wonder if is on the California list?

My Blackhawk does as well. Even though I reload both .45 ACP and .45 Colt, I don’t think I have ever shot .45 ACP out of it. Definitely helps the resale value, and it would be good if I didn’t load .45 Colt. .45 Colt is expensive from the factory - if you can even find it!CDFingers wrote:My old model Vaquero with the plow handle has both cylinders. Kind of neat to shoot each out of the same gun. I'd use .45LC on saber toothed wildebeests.

I don’t think it’s going to matter with a .22. Should be a pop-gun & easy to control with a birds head grip shape. Anyways I haven’t seen one online or out in the wild for sale yet. Ruger always hypes everything to the max before it’s available in quantity, to generate demand.CDFingers wrote:Referring to the Bird's Head grip, my habit with the plow handle is to let it roll in my hand as per design. I would like to mess with a Bird's Head to see if I could do the same thing. Were it not for the need for a new frame to be gunsmithed onto my Vaquero, I'd've done it so I could get that experience.
