This week Rodney continues his attempts to enter the world of Cowboy Action Shooting, going through several of the things he has learned as he looks to choose the firearms he will be using. One of the most important areas to consider here turns out to be the financial costs associated with the sport.
Thanks for watching. New videos post every Thursday!

My wife and I joined SASS a long time ago...our member numbers are just over 29,000. We were on a budget, so had to share a set of guns. Ended up with a Rossi '92 rifle (which I polished up internally), Ruger Bisley Vaqueros, and a Stoeger Coach Gun. Still some of the most reasonably-priced choices for a beginner, and ours are still perfectly functional and competitive a quarter century and hundreds of thousands of rounds later. We no longer compete, mainly because all the "gamers" sucked a lot of the fun out of the sport. Are short-stroke kits, bucket holsters, tactical shotgun mods, massive front sight beads, special shotshell bandoliers, and mousephart loads really "spirit of the game"? Do they bear much resemblance to the old west time frame?

I love the Bisley Grip too, unfortunately, its hard to find a Ruger Bisley with the Shorter length 4.25" barrel. 38 special does make the most "All Around" sence, but if You can find the 32 H&R Mag. "Cowboy" lever Carbine and a couple Ruger Single-Six 32 H&R Mag pistols, the 32 S&W Long Caliber would be Perfect to Shoot "Round after Round" & add a Good Double Barrel Coach Gun, & that would be a Pretty Sweet Set-Up!

I'd love for someone to make a modern reproduction of the Merwin Hulbert revolvers.

I looked into CAS very briefly. The expense, even when buying carefully, was too much for my budget. There were other factors, but this isn't the time or place that discussion.

Coach guns are no more espencive than a 1897 pump. A a use Stoeger coach can be found in many pawn shops. from $300 to $400 depending on condition. Lastly a 97 can be a good choice in CAS but there is a good reason they are not the most popualr they can be very finiky to run and it take a lot of pratice to be fast with one.

The single action revolver I want is the Ruger Blackhawk 357mag/9mm convertible but the place I go to never has the color combination I want it in.

Ask 'em to order it for you, or buy from an online vendor and have it shipped to your favorite place. I believe that many places will do that.
