Hi all
I am currantly planning on Building a New Vaquero Montado in 45LC for CC and am open for any views good or bad and some sugestions for a good gunsmith to make my Ruger run like A well Lubed Machine. I plan on getting it Engraved with at least %75 Coverage. If any of you have had your SA Engraved regardless of Make post some pics so all can see. I know a few Smiths myself and have taked to many over the Phone and all have about a $1500 price take for the Coverage that I am looking for. Is that a good Price? I have never got any of my Firearms Engraved so don't really know. I would like to send the Montado to Smiths & Engravers in Texas but that is not set in stone. I know that almost all Smiths can do an action job but I want to know if anyone knows of a Smith thats Bread and Butter is SA Rugers or Old Army style Revolvers.
