I broke every transfer bar on every Ruger Bisley Vaquero I owned (6 in all)
My advice is to send them to Wes Flowers and let him remove the transfer bars and install a half cock like the Colt. He can also short stroke the hammer travel for you.
He did mine and it made a world of difference.

+1 on that.
Wes can make them sing, no doubt. He makes them "run like a Colt" and they do. They load and cycle just like a Colt. And there isn't that famous Ruger short stroke where you hear a CAS shooter going click, click, click, click, click, boom. Don't hear that with Colts, clones and Wes Flowers tricked out Rugers.
