0:49 No it isn't. How does it remind them of the "old west" if no one here today was alive during that time? And no gunfighter in the 1800`s whether a criminal or a lawman who wanted to actually LIVE and not have his opponent send a bullet through their lungs, would waste time doing this. They would draw and fire. This is pointless nonsense that had NO legitimate purpose outside of a stupid rodeo show with people being clowinsh.
I greatly appreciate you sharing the tools of your trade as a showman, its very fun to learn from someone so obviously passionate, i hope your doing well! Appreciation from south dakota
Hi Dan . I really lkke the west anx spinning guns . I reallyike your holsters and wo der were you got them and are the custom made ? I live i canada and guns are restri ted and use replicas and rigs are hard to find . To order from USA is expensive by the time you pay exchange and duties and shipping it doubles the price. Any help or advice would be appreciated .
Bravo👍🏼💪🏽fantastic instructional video. I have a Ruger super Wrangler and the workings are very similar to the Vaquero This helped me so much more than the Ruger instruction video which is fuzzy and fast and got me all exercised and sweaty 🥵 at 3 am. keep up the good work
Can you please help me, I have been trying everything in this video and I still feel like as soon as I throw the rope I can’t initiate the spin and the rope just tangles
The best way for me to help is for you to video a typical attempt and email or text it to me. Just a few seconds long will work. Then I can look at it and maybe even slow it down to see what is happening. rhinestoneroper@gmail.com 208-320-3633
Good question. First, these pistols are single action. That means you have to manually cock the hammer back to rotate the cylinder, then pull the trigger to fire it. So, you can pull the trigger and the gun will not fire unless it is cocked. Second, I never spin a loaded gun.
I wouldn't do this all that much. It was a trick for the movies and TV. It's actually one of the worst things for your rifle. It can easily ruin the action. The movie studios didn't have to worry because they always had at least one extra ready. Looks cool though.
These are great tips! I suffered a severe right arm injury a couple years ago that required surgery (that didn't go well) and developed into CRPS in my right arm and hand. I couldn't even hold a gun without dropping it for a couple months but I am just getting started trying to spin a bit and I can barley do it at all because of the stiffness. But that middle finger stretch felt really good and I gained some flexibility.
I'm very glad that the stretching is helpful. It sounds like you are prepared to endure some pain to get your skills back. That's a requirement for gun all spinning. You may find yourself relying more on your left hand. At least I have. I am looking forward to hearing about your success.
That is the challenging part. During fair season we do it three times per day. But, on the other hand, If I can't do it over and over, then I shouldn't do it at all.
Yes it is a blast....when it works. Some of these stunts take so long to set up that they are hard to practice. The full stunt gets finishing touches as the shows progress.
@@rhinestoneropers9204 One quick question about blanks. I shoot a lot of blanks on my RU-vid channel. I am suddenly having primers back out of the pockets and jam against the frame even though they are all drilled out like you describe and have worked for years. The only thing I can think of is that the primer pockets have enlarged over time. Have you experienced this problem after many blank reloads on the same brass.
