Hi All,

Looking for a bit of input on what may be my next purchase. My LGS has a used 4 5/8" 45 Colt BH (blued) as well as an "old" Vaquero in 44 mag with CCH frame and a 5 1/2" barrel for the same price. I would estimate them both at probably 90%. I have a 44 Special Flat top new new model Blackhawk and a Lipsey's SBH in 44 mag at present but nothing in 45 Colt. I do not handload, unfortunately. All things being equal, which would you advise?

Thanks in advance!
