Yep, I’m still on a Cowboy Action Shooting kick. Pictured above is one of the new Ruger Vaqueros (chambered in .45 Long Colt) I borrowed for my first SASS match in a lovely leather holster (also borrowed). There was a great variety of gear sported at that event, but I found my eye gravitating to some particularly pretty leather work that is often rejected in the self defense community in favor of more concealable utilitarian holsters. Perhaps it’s the girl in me, but I must admit that I enjoyed the spectacle of good looking guns and equally nice looking gear (not to mention the great costumes) at my first cowboy action match nearly as much as the shooting.
