    Heritage Arms 22/22mag Rough Rider

    I just picked one up on a trade deal, it's a cowboy single action with target adjustable rear sight and front fibef optic with interchangeable 22lr and 22mag cylinders.

    Anybody have any experience with one?

    It's a fun gun to shoot and quite the tack driver.

    They're not bad for what they are. It should go bang for quite a long time and if it's ever lost/stolen/broken it's not a big deal since they are so cheap...$99 usually.

    Not the $99 specimen you speak of.

    I've got a blued, fixed-sight version that's about 10 years old at this point. Fit and finish aren't the greatest (though the newer ones are nicer), but I have no idea how many thousands of rounds it's had through it since I've owned it. For the price, it's a great plinker.

    My experience was with one I purchased at 18. It was a god awful piece of crap made of pot metal that broke in short order.

    I don't know if they are any better these days, but mine wasn't fit to be a door stop.

    No, it's the same gun, just with fiber optic sights and multi-colored plywood grips. And the zinc frame is painted silver, not black.

    For what it is, which is a nearly-disposable .22 plinker, it's not a bad gun. It's no Single Six, but they generally work right up until the point where they don't.

    I can explain it to you. I can’t understand it for you.

    My buddy has one. It shoots pretty well. The thing can take a beating. My advice...shoot the heck out of it and have fun!
