I'm looking for a single holster belt rig for a ruger vacquero that will hold my pistol on the right hand side, butt forward. Any idea where I can get something like this? It will be mainly for fun but I'd still like quality as well so I don't mind spending a couple hundred bucks.
Need recommendations for cowboy single holster rig

I'd just type in Custom Western Holsters and see what pop's up. There are so many guys making Holsters that you are bound to find a style that fits what you want.
Finding a personalised Holster is like Comedy, all about timing...
It seems that builders just up and change designs on a whim. They'll have a design pop in their heads and just build it!
Personally I carry my 4 5/8" New Model Vaquero in a cusom Sholder holster that I got through a dealer on the net. They were closing out some exhisting stocks of Custom 1880's holsters and I saw mine. I got it for only $59 believe it or not!!! It's a simple design with only a border cut of two lines and a center pattern.
The main thing was I didn't want any front, across the chest, straps. This way the holser dosen't give itself or the fact that you are armed, away! I looked around once I decided on a sholder rig and the 1880's style holsters were famous for not showing their straps.
I wanted a full coverage, butt forward rig with no bullet loops.
Don't be afraid to look through the Closeout sections of websites. Many big manufacturers have a sale section to their sites.

Buy a left hand buskedero rig, then turn the whole thing backwards....viola!or, if you don't like 'drop'' holsters just buy a belt and left hand holster set, and pull the holster around to your right.

El Paso saddlery makes a very nice product. I have
some of their holsters and belts, and they are top notch.

If you can't find what you want on the internet, contact a local or nearby leather store. They can tell you who the good local holstermakers are. I bet there is a craftsman making good stuff close to you who would be happy to make exactly what you want. I have 4 pairs of holsters for CAS competition. Two pair were made by nationally known makers, the other two pair were from local guys. They all work fine.
Ask Jim Harrison, http://www.harrisonleather.com/ He'll make anything you want. He also has good holsters for most of the BP guns.
