I am looking at getting a Vaquero in 45 colt to pair with a 45 colt rifle. The question is for general purpose large bore SA, would you go with the 4 5/8" barrel or 5.5" and why?
I like the look of both, the 4 5/8" seems to be more "gunfighter" sized, but are you giving up any performance? This will be paired with an El Paso Saddlery cowboy rig.
Thanks.
