GOYcover1-web-sm.jpg
Item Number F091006SET

Since its introduction to the firearm market in 1993, the Ruger Vaquero has been a leader in the sport of cowboy action shooting. In the past sixteen years, Sturm, Ruger & Company has referred to it as “the gun that won the new west.” They now introduce the completely custom NRA “2009 Gun of the Year” Matched Set.

Each revolver in the set is made in America and characterized by 5 ½” blued barrels with gold roll marks, a color case finish on the frames, and Hogue® – simulated ivory grips. The gold roll mark on the right side of each barrel reads “NRA ‘2009 Gun of the Year’ Matched Set.” NRA custom serialization of each set read as: NRAR-0001 and NRAL-0001 sequentially through 1,125. Every exclusive set includes a custom Sturm, Ruger, & Company commemorative red double revolver hard plastic case, which is exclusive to Friends of NRA events. Also included, is an NRA/Sturm, Ruger, & Company certificate of authenticity.

Came up address not found on the link.... :-[

The Vaquero is a benchmark. Great pistol.
Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

Fixed it while you were trying.

I'd blame my heritage, but I don't want to bring M'ette's husband's background into question on my account  :(

That is what I was told in our tele-conference this noon, but I haven't seen it in print yet.
