Key Features

Steel Frame Construction — WHY IT MATTERS: Adds durability and weight to tame recoil, so you can shoot longer without fatigue and keep your sights on target.
Sabre Sand Cerakote Finish — WHY IT MATTERS: Resists rust, scratches, and wear from holster carry or range use, keeping the revolver looking fresh for years.
6.5″ Barrel — WHY IT MATTERS: Gives you a longer sight radius for more precise shots at 25 yards or beyond, ideal for small-game hunting or steel targets.
Single Action Only with Thumb/Hammer Safety — WHY IT MATTERS: Classic cowboy-style operation with a manual safety that prevents accidental discharge, perfect for new shooters learning trigger discipline.
Polymer Black Grips — WHY IT MATTERS: Provide a secure, non-slip hold even in wet conditions, and they’re tough enough to handle drops or bumps.

Who It’s For

This revolver is for the everyday carrier who wants a lightweight, affordable .22 LR for training new shooters, plinking after work, or adding a vintage-style piece to the collection. It’s also a solid choice for hunters who need a small-game sidearm that won’t break the bank. If you’re a cowboy-action enthusiast on a budget, this fits right in.

Pros / Cons

• 6.5″ barrel improves sight radius and accuracy.
• Manual thumb/hammer safety for peace of mind.

FAQ

Is this revolver compatible with .22 Magnum cylinders?

Yes, the Heritage Rough Rider Steel Frame can accept an optional .22 Magnum cylinder (sold separately). The frame is the same size, so it’s a drop-in swap. Check with Heritage for compatible part numbers.

Can I dry-fire the Heritage Rough Rider?

It’s not recommended to dry-fire this revolver frequently without snap caps. The firing pin can strike the cylinder face or frame over time. Use snap caps to protect the mechanism.

What’s the best ammo for accuracy in the 6.5″ barrel?

Standard velocity .22 LR target loads (like CCI Standard Velocity or Federal Champion) tend to group best. The 6.5″ barrel stabilizes them well for 1-2 inch groups at 25 yards with good technique.

Does the Sabre Sand Cerakote finish require special cleaning?

No, clean it like any other firearm—use a solvent and oil. The Cerakote finish is tough and won’t react to most cleaners. Just avoid abrasive pads that could scratch the coating.

Is this revolver legal to carry in all 50 states?

Legality depends on local laws. This is a single-action revolver, so it’s generally not restricted as a “semi-automatic” but check your state’s handgun regulations. We ship to all 50 states, but you must comply with local laws.
