I'd be more into that pairing in .357.

That would be a great pair.

Hell, I'd be happy with a nice stainless .357 1894C with a checkered walnut stock without a QR code laser etched on the side of the receiver, and priced a fair bit under a grand. Ditch the crossbolt safety (I know, it'll never happen), and I'd be over the moon. Prices are way up, availability is way down, and if they made what I describe, I have little doubt it would be a hot seller at a decent profit to Ruger. I've already got a stainless .357 New Vaquero in the safe that I've been wanting to pair with a nice stainless .357 lever gun for years now.

It seems the buyer of Remington has an interest getting it back on track.

Talk is cheap. Would be great if they restored faith in the brand though.
