BUFF7MM
☠Buff➐㎣☠
I just picked up a New Vaquero today in 45 ACP and noticed the caliber marked on it is 45 CAL.
This gun was not sold as a convertible 45LC/45ACP as you can see by the box and model number below.
I searched around looking for other model 5154‘s on the internet to see how others are marked and I found one on gunbroker with a serial number fairly close to mine, but it shows shipped in 2013, and it is marked 45 ACP. (see below)
I’ve also see some stainless models that were only marked with 45ACP also. I guess my question is has Ruger recently just been marking these with just 45 CAL or was my firearm going to be a convertible and they just decided to just do the 45 ACP cylinder and call it a day so to speak? Not a big deal to me but I find it odd that a 45 ACP only gun would not be marked as such.
