Has anyone on here just fell in love with a firearm that was completely impractical for the use which they were needing it? I was looking for a gun to use gold panning and camping. Both of which can be wet and dirty. I love stainless guns and that is usually all I will buy. It stands to reason that a stainless double action revolver would be the best choice. What do I choose. A single action revolver with a "color case blued" finish (Ruger Birds Head Vaquero .45colt). It was kind of like going out shopping for a leather jacket and coming back with silk shirt. Every since I have been making excuses to myself why I did this and almost regretted it until I finally shot it yesterday. Talk about a creme-puff. I have never shot a weapon that felt better. Pretty darn accurate and comfortable enough for a one handed shoot. My first experience with a .45colt. I think I will have to change my favorite caliber from .357mag to .45colt.

Anyone else ever do this?
