Yep!  Absolutely the worst ever made.  I bought two NMV's and, to punish myself for such an idiotic move, bought two more!

Absolutely!!  I first purchased a OMV Sheriffs Mod in 45LC 3- 3/4" bbl. shiny stainless.  I hated that one so much that I just had to torture myself with a New Ruger Vaquero in the same cal. and finish.  Woe is me!

Them Rugers are habit-formin. You buy one, you gotta have another. I'm up to a Baker's Dozen, some semi-auto and some single action.

     There's a new guy on another board I was talkin to yesterday cause he didn't think there were any more good American made cowboy guns in an obtainable price range with quality and customer service.  He's lookin at Rugers now :D  I must really hate that guy ta steer him in such a poor direction. ;D

I don't mean to out-do the Colonel, But I'll kick it to $80 for the RNVs.  ;D

Seriously, as you may all know, I am the mod at USFA CSS and have always been a big proponent of USFAs, but since I switched over to RNVs for my match guns, they have become my favorites. I just love everything about them, and think Col. Teddy would have, also.
Anyhow...

ya'll have a safe and Merry Christmas!

But they can be worse with just a little ingenuity.  I have a 7.5 in .45 that I really tore up, changed the ejector housing and rear sight to steel, added a Super TG, trigger and hammer.  Finally I ground on the innards to a perfect let off.  Now it's a real tank, getting rid of that aluminum cheapened it right up.

Christmas is over, New Year is here and I can't wait to get back to trying to wear out this brace of ROA's  with 7.5" barrels so I can buy a pair of those cheapo short barrelled ones with fixed sights, God but they is UGLY!!!
