Overview
The Ruger Vaquero Bird's Head in .45 ACP is a single-action revolver on the Vaquero platform, chambered for the rimless .45 ACP cartridge. The Bird's Head grip frame offers a rounded, more compact grip profile. The blued finish provides a classic appearance. Barrel length and cylinder capacity are not confirmed from available data; the .45 ACP chambering typically requires moon clips for reliable extraction.
