Rough rider 22 cal

kenny53 · September 25, 2020, 10:53 AM

I am looking at a Heritage Rough Rider SA six shooter with a 16 inch barrel. I have a Ruger single six, Ruger MKII, Taurus TX 22 and a bunch of 22 rifles. So this would be a fun gun. Before tax it's $167 and some pennies. So what do you guys think? I am trying to talk myself into this. Oh if I buy it at my LGS I get 14 days of range time;.

A little long for me. But if you like it, go for it.

Might be worth it just for the range time. Don't forget to wear a mask. I think Jim Carrey use to own one.

We have one with roughly a 6 inch barrel and the extra .22 Magnum cylinder. Good little pistol, pretty accurate and a blast to shoot, especially with .22Mags! I've looked at the longer one too....

Looks to be a blast!

I have a 6" model, and a 3 1 /2" with Birdshead grip. Both have been great shooters. Lots of fun, and worth every penny.
Not really interested in the "Buntline" model. But I'm sure it will serve you well.
My only complaint is the obnoxious, and totally unnecessary safety! It just looks stupid on a single action revolver!

Thanks for the feed back. I was going to the gun store this afternoon but a nap got in my way. If I do buy it I will try and post pics.
