Google "Cowboy Action Shooting," and I'll bet you'll find more then you ever wanted to know... Try here for starters, as well http://www.shootmagazine.com/getting...wboyaction.htm
Ruger makes modern versions of "cowboy" guns, as does Navy Arms, American Frontier Firearms, Rossi, EAA, and several others...

I have two Ruger "New Vaqueros" that I use for Cowboy Action Shooting, as well as a Colt SAA.
Single Action "Cowboy Guns" are fun to shoot.  Biker

If you want hell for stout, Ruger is the way to go. If you want a more traditional look and the "half-cock" four click action, Colt, USFA and as mentioned Aldo Uberti who makes most of them for the importers listed above.
