Default The definition of balance:

this specimen is a Ruger Vaquero .45 colt with 4 5/8" BBL, it sports a set of official Ruger ivory polymer grips, has Bill Oglesby's patented lockwork, a 3# trigger pull, and will shoot a 2.5" group offhand at 50 yds. It just 'feels right'.

Not to mention it looks right as well. Great looking revolver and you can't go wrong with a Ruger.

Not to put too fine apoint on it, but I think even General George S. Patton would've been proud to carry that piece of iron. Very nice sir, that's a keeper.
