Rifleman Review: Taurus Deputy

This video explores the iconic association between cowboys and Colt revolvers, ultimately concluding that while a Colt is classic, any single-action revolver can evoke the cowboy spirit. The presenter, Hickok45, demonstrates various single-action firearms, including a Colt Single Action Army, a Halls Western Marshall, and a Ruger Vaquero, highlighting their historical significance and practical use in cowboy-style shooting. The core message emphasizes that the 'cowboy' persona is more about the mindset and the type of firearm (single-action) than a specific brand.

This review of the Ruger Vaquero highlights its robust construction, durability, and suitability for recreational shooting and cowboy action. While praised for its strength and reliability, the review points out a thicker-than-ideal barrel, a high hammer, and basic bluing as potential drawbacks. The firearm's transfer bar safety mechanism allows for safe carrying with a full cylinder, differentiating it from traditional Colt Single Action Army designs. The reviewer suggests a 9mm version with a thinner barrel and improved aesthetics would be highly desirable.
