Hey /k/, I've been thinking about getting a single action revolver sometime soon (probably a new vaquero) and I've been wondering whether I should go with .45 long colt or .357 magnum.
What insight can /k/ give me regarding this matter?

Go 357 it'll be cheaper. You can then get a levergun in 357 and be a real swinging dick at the range.
>>
I suggest whichever will kill them deader.

Seriously though, if its a safe queen .45lc if its a range toy .357
>>
>>28372826
If I got a SA revolver, it'd be .45. But just because I want to be Revolver Ocelot.
>>
Unless you reload or have a massive hardon for spending money, get the 357.
>>

As far as a I can tell .357 can be had for around the same price as .45 if you look around, so I'm guessing this is taking .38 special into account.
>>
>>28372826
What is your intended use for the gun? .357 is cheaper, but you don't get that real cowboy feel that you get with .45LC.
>>
>>28372934
Just some fun at the range
>>
>>28372951
.357 mag it is then
>>
>>28372980
Why? I'd got .45
>>
>>28372980
Alright then, advice seems to universally be .357 magnum, guess that's the right choice here.

But what exactly is it about .357 mag that doesn't make it feel right anyway? Just since you brought that up may as well ask.
>>
>>28372826
.357 magnum, so you can also use cheaper .38spl.
>>
>>28373026
Nothing. .357 Mag is what a modern cowboy cartridge would be.

.45 LC is just the original.
>>
>>28373112
Ah, so .45 long colt sounds more authentic more than anything.

.357 magnum it is then, so long as I get that sweet cocking every shot, reloading each cartridge one at a time feel it I'm happy.
>>
>>28372826

could have choice another pic than an airsoft SAA.
>>
>>28373141
But you won't get the cool cowboy loads with the awesome boxes. :(
>>
>>28373141
Of that's what you want then that's exactly what you'll get with either cartridge, but .357 Mag is more affordable and you can use .38 Spcl too.
>>
>>28373151
Sorry, just grabbed the first thing that looked nice in google images

>>28373158
Nigga, if I wanted those I could just get the ammo without the revolver.
>>
>>28372826
.45 LC is good for initial shits& giggles, but .357 is better imho.
I've got both (not SA though), and I usually go for the .357.
