Who has one? Pro's and con's? Quality? Good shooter? I'm thinking about getting one just for kicks. You can find them with matched cylinders for .22lr and .22mag for under $200. Seems like it would be a good trapping pistol and if it got beat up, it's a $200 pistol. I probably wouldn't use it on my line but just say'in. https://www.heritagemfg.com/product_detail.cfm?prod_id=6

I had one and gave it away. Then I bought a Ruger single six. Well...…….. what was the problem?

I have one with the long barrel(7 inch if I remember). It is a very accurate and dependable revolver. Just right for the trapline. Fit and finish isn't as nice as a more expensive gun but I picked the one I liked from a half dozen that the dealer had in stock. I didn't get the mag cylinder, didn't think I would use it. Cost about $120. The government mandated safety block is something I don't care for but I guess they all have that now. I would recommend one.

I like mine . It also has the mag cylinder but I haven't used it. I wish it would shoot shorts though. I have several hundred from my father in law but nothing I have is for shorts. just

I gave 89 for mine. It serves its purpose for a cheap revolver.
She should stay home and do more cooking like Babe Winkelmans wife did, and let her husband have some peace and quiet.

Never had a problem with my Heritage. Have owned and used on the line for 6 years. Always in the boat somewhere under traps, marsh grass, weeds, muck and water. Find it and pull the trigger....BANG! Not loud at all IMO! I have a 4.75" barrel model and only use the LR cylinder. Paid under $130.00 for the gun with both cylinders. Found a perfect leather holster from a local pawn shop. Not as accurate as some of the other .22 pistols that I own but for the price I would buy another one without hesitation!

I got one. Cheap both in price and quality. If you like one or the other it's the gun for you. The most inaccurate gun I have ever shot. Waste of money unless your planning on treating it like the piece of junk it is. Nothing worse than a gun that wont hit were its aimed at. Unless I shot high velocity ammo the bullet is actually tumbling at 20 yds (and I didn't think that was possible until I got this gun). I know a lot of people will disagree with me but I wish someone would of share this information with me before I bought the gun. So here's my opinion take it for what its worth to you. My thoughts exactly. This gun's performance matches it's price---you get what you pay for.

I have had one for probably 20 plus years, I have the long barrel "hog leg" model. It has rode a lot of miles and "kilt" a lot of critters!

Maybe the older ones are better than the new ones. Mines about 3 or 4 yrs old. Maybe so, mines probably 6-7 years old. I never shot it more than 20 feet and it does ok.

I wore out one several years ago. Not sure how many bricks of ammo through it. Several. Would not always fire the round. bullets were keyholing. Sent it back to the factory. They replaced the barrel and hammer. Not sure what else. They charged me for the repairs though I don't remember how much. Then I sold it. Guy I sold it too was aware of what I just wrote. First thousand rounds or so a squirrel head shot at 20 yards was no problem. When it came back from the factory repair it was real accurate again. I just figured another thousand rounds it would go south again.
Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)
