Product Overview
The Heritage Manufacturing Rough Rider revolver delivers a robust, dual-caliber platform engineered for diverse utility, ranging from recreational marksmanship to effective small game management. This model integrates precise mechanics with durable construction, optimizing performance across varying applications.
Key Features
Dual-Caliber Versatility
Equipped with interchangeable cylinders, the Rough Rider facilitates immediate caliber transition between .22 Long Rifle and .22 Magnum. This design enables cost-efficient training and plinking with .22LR while providing access to the increased ballistic performance of .22 Magnum for small game harvesting and pest control applications.
Optimized Barrel Geometry
The 6.5-inch blued steel barrel is engineered to optimize projectile velocity and stability for both chambered cartridges. Its extended sight radius contributes to improved precision during target acquisition and engagement.
Capacity and Operational Design
A 9-shot cylinder capacity mitigates frequent reloads, thereby maximizing operational time on the range or in the field. The classic single-action mechanism provides a deliberate, consistent trigger pull, which is instrumental in facilitating precise shot placement and promoting fundamental marksmanship.
Integrated Durability and Finish
The robust blued finish provides integral corrosion resistance and wear mitigation, preserving the firearm’s structural and aesthetic integrity through rigorous operational cycles.
