The cheap barrel came in.
Clocks well short. (100+ degrees)

Which barrel will be used, I don't know. Unsurprisingly, I have more money in accessories and additional cylinders than the base revolver.

But I think this stupid pile might have a future different than "repair".
My brother suggested some Jim March mods. I find this suggestion enticing and attractive.

I don't want this Heritage any more, but don't want to sell it. So fun is the likely answer.
If I want another-nother single-action 22 revolver, I'll buy a Super Wrangler. (To be put to shame by my amazing Wrangler; but it will have .22 WMR capability.)
