Elated to get my first TGW revolver! Lightly customized, this recent production Ruger Bisley Model 470 has the 2-tone ranch hand blast, trigger tune and accuracy package and beautiful fitted wood grips. I might upgrade the sights later to Bowen/Garza, but that's about all I would touch. Now to load up some good 45 Colt loads... Really nice, without being over done! Sometimes less is more. That said, I think the sight upgrade mentioned, would be money well spent. |

I called Bobby on this one, but ended up choosing the 3 3/4 vaquero with mammoth ivory. It's a great gun. You picked a good one.

Perfectly understated is what I’d call that revolver. I don’t like flashy, and plain doesn’t elicit much interest either. IMO, your .45 is just about perfect, and it’s a Bisley !  |

The fitment of everything on that Bisley looks fantastic. Wood to metal fit is flawless and you can't even see the bottom seam above the trigger guard.

 I picked this vaquero. 45 colt. Mammoth ivory grips. It had action work but I had Bobby do the complete accuracy package. It really likes my Tank loads of 20g 2400 with MP 270 swc, Lee 255 rf, Noe 255 swc. It handles lighter loads great as well. I've bought 7 or more guns off the TGW site. Great to do business with a TX based smith. |
