I know this is beat to death and there is another post going on about best value for the money. SORRY but in my opinion this deal beats all the super six, S&W, ruger, taurus , or any other pistol. For this money you can buy 2-3 for what you pay for the other. These little guns will kill ANY yote ,coon,or bobcat just as dead as any 300 dollar weapon.....

I don't know 379.99 is pretty steep for a trapline gun.

I have a 1911 Walter in .22 I picked up for $250 so nice I don’t take it with me, it’s about 25% smaller then a .45 Commander

We actually have 2 of the Heritage revolvers! Got them for our two oldest. I used it to dispatch the raccoon I got last week. Worked like a charm! smile


New trapper! Really excited to learn!

i wore out a heritage. bought one when they first came out. replaced it with a single six. i do not regret at all not buying another heritage

i have an old h and r 9 shot revolver. made in 1929. h and r was a cheap gun when they were sold. i doubt there is a heritage being used that will still be serviceable in 90 years. that h and r was used a lot for 30-40 years by my grandad. the heritage i wore out lasted through about 3000 rounds and 6 trapping seasons

I have a heritage and used in many seasons and as far as dispatch sure it works fine. Then you try to shoot something further than 10 feet and you will see where that extra money comes into play. Also the side loading gate and single round loading is quite annoying to me. I put mine up and got a ruger 22/45, i can shoot rabbits out to 25 yards fairly easily. Cant do that with my heritage.

True. But, my great grandson will be shooting my single six some day. I am a long way off from even having a grandson.

A friend of mine had a heritage that the timing was off brand new, he got rid of it and has never had anything good to say about them. A used single six isn't all that much saw one in a shop the other day for 175 bucks, it wasn't cosmetically pristine by any means but it'd be a good trap pistol.

I got a heritage, they are perfectly acceptable as a dispatch gun, and you wont cry when you drop it in the creek like you would with a model 17 smith and Wesson.Actually id cry twice, once when I seen it happen and second from the wrath of my father! ….and im 42!

I went with the Wrangler because of some stories I’ve heard about the RR. Nothing bad, just that accuracy wasn’t good past 6-10ft...and this came from some experienced shooters. Don’t know where my boys got my Wrangler but it was less than $150 brand new. Still nothing I want to drop in the mud, but if I do I’m not gonna cry about it. As far as accuracy, I was really surprised. It’s a good 20 yard gun.

The rough rider is basically a dispatch only gun in my eyes. For the price, ya can't beat it.

For the price, you can beat it, and not cry about it! I just picked one up last weekend for $120 that came with a $20 store gift card. I also sent in for the .22 mag cylinder.

As the pistoleros are few and far in between, as Teddy Roosevelt noted, the shots who claim they are hitting with a pistol, forget the numerous shots they miss, this Heritage is perfect for your trapline. I purchased a cheap Chiappa which was 4 times less than what I wanted in a Bearcat. I have handled S & W Single Six revolvers and they were no more accurate than the gun I have.

For those who post they wore out thier guns, lubrication and I repeat LUBRICATION, is the solution. You can use what you want, I use STP, but the Mobil synthetics are very good with moly which came into use with M 16's in Nam. What I like best about the Colt 45 design is they come apart in seconds for cleaning and lubing.

Hated my Heritage revolver. Heavy, slow to load or unload, only holds 6 rounds. It dispatched stuff ok but I look for a lot more than you get from the RR in a good trapline gun.
