What is your favorite CAS pistol and why?

[Big Hext Finnigan]

Describe your favorite pistol.. why do you like it so..
If you're an other, then tell us all what it is..

I'm trying something, you get 2 votes.. we'll see how it works.

[Big Hext Finnigan]

FYI, you have to vote for both at the same time.  I'm stuck with just one vote. Sooo sad. Haw!

[Sidekick]

I voted for Ruger because they are the best but seriously I like them for their toughness and dependibility.

[Doc Shapiro]

Ruger.  With Eagle Gunfighter Grips they point real well for me.  I don't have to search for the sights.

Ruger 4-5/8" Vaquero and a Ruger 4-5/8" Bisley Vaquero. Both blued in .44 magnum. I had them both before I got into the sport and they do double duty as ranch/hunting guns. Can't beat them for strength, reliability and affordability!

[D. R. Greysun]

Roogers! Cause thats what I got.  I bought my first Rooger back in '74 it wearn't a CAS pistola though. A nice little SS Security Six .357. I came with a 4" barrel an' I had it changed to 6". Shot bullseye and silhouette fer more a few years. Next "76 come the Super Blackhawk 44 Mag. 7 1/2" Blue. I carried it around on every hunt fer ever. I did the slihouette thing with it too! When I went half blind an' plum crazy I put'm away fer 'bout 15 years. A few years back my buddy was getin' outta the gun business an says last call. I aways wanted a '94 Win. as a companion piece fer the Blackhawk. So now I got 2 cowboy guns. Well, 3 really cause I already had this '94 Win Musket NRA thingy! Next thing I know I'm holding a Bisley and it stuck to ma hand. Well, hoot I got 2 hands, had ta have 2 Bisley's 44 Mag Vaquero's 5 1/2" a course. Then along come a SXS and for I know it a brace a '58's NMA Sheriff's. Leather, Duds, Ammo and such, I had forgotten how much I like to reload, ma boolet bags weights near 80#. I can hardly get up in the PU. An I still got brass ta load! Geez, I think I'm outta control! But lovin' it.  Yeee Haaaaa!

I like the Colt's becaus they have the look, the feel
the heretage of the Cowboy idea.
If i'd want strength i'd by a Freadom Arm's
The Remington C&B for their dependibility because
i never had a malfunctin with my -58

[Qball]

Forgot to mention that they should be shoot with BlackPowder ofcours!

[Capt. Hamp Cox]

Rugers for durability/reliability/price.

Colt clones for traditional looks, and they just feel better in my hands.

[Foothills Drifter]

Howdy......
Ruger.........accurate and bullet proof. I have 2 SS and 2 blued, all 5 1/2"  45 colt.

Good shootin......

I voted for Other.. cause I just enjoy shooting my Rems so much right now.  They are better pistols than I deserve... and no, you can't have them

I also plan to like my new Opentops in 45 Schofield.. so Other gets some reinforcement.

But I would have voted for Ruger as well.  I've got a pair of RVBs and I never, ever worry about how they will shoot and if they will work.  They just don't have the panache' of the Rems, or Opentops, or even Replicas..

Adios,

[Bill Mc Call]

Definitively my Rems '58, go feeling, never had a single problem with them, most of the time used C&B but sometimes with a convertion cylinder( do I have to mention the brand? well, it's only two initials  )

[Nashville Frank]

To me it`s Rugers only because of the durability and price. That also goes for my off-topic big-game rifle.

My first singleaction was a SuperBlackhawk. Before CAS, the fun part was heavy loads. When I started with CAS I used my Super for a while, then changed to a Schofield. But my hands ain`t to big, so i didn`t like the grip for duelistshooting. Then I changed to 5\5 Vaqueros, and hopefully that will be my last trade.

Once in a while I shoot cap & ball, and then I find the Remington 1858 very reliable and accurate.

[Silver Creek Slim]

I am shooting Ruger Bisley Vaqueros as my main guns.  I like the grip and the lower hammer for shooting duelist. I was shooting 1875 Remingtons mainly until I got the RBV's. The Remingtons point  well and fun to shoot but I was having problems shooting BP with them so I got the RBV's.

[Cuts Crooked]

My 75 Remingtons, because they are the best design ever made!

[J.D.Cayhill]

It's all good. But Ruger has been the gateway for more shooters getting into CAS than all others combined. The vast majority are very shootable out of the box and a set of Wolff springs makes them very smooth. I love the way my Schofields shoot, but I want to be buried with my RV's.

[Irish Red O'Toole]

These are my favorites:

[Paper Chaser]

Pair of the Great Western II Californians, 38/357,5 1/2 barrel:

[Will Ketchum]

Hext, I have and like them all   but you said "favorite"  so I picked "other" since my favotites are my Smith & Wesson New Models.

I shoot my best groups with my Vaqueros.

Like my Colt Clones pretty well and shoot them on occasion.  But my favorites are hands down the Smiths.  Now if someone would just make a clone

I've been a fan of the Colt SAA since I began watching westerns as a kid.  I still think they're the best.  Between my wife and I we now have eight of them.  But...just got a USFA
