    1st Post! Hi All

    Hi everyone,

    Just joined Calguns last night. I kept seeing this forum through various Google searches when I was researching my first pistol. I figured this would be a good place to "hang my hat" since we California residents have "different" gun laws than our surrounding states.

    I'm a novice shooter who shot my friends' guns periodically to learn the basics. I finally bought my first pistol to progress my skills and improve my technique. I picked a used Ruger Vaquero in .357 as my first pistol. She's beautiful and simple. She will fire whatever you put in the cylinder. Here are some pics:









    I must say, I think I'm addicted. I've put 350 rounds through her and I'm already saving/planning my next purchase haha.

        Welcome to the site, great for us California people.


        Nice looking pistol, I used to have a Smith & Wesson model 66 stainless, but, don't have it anymore, wish I did.

                          Very nice man... Just be careful... Once you go 1911, you don't go back, unless its for more 1911s...
