The Heritage Rough Rider is a single-action .22 LR revolver (brand part no. RR22B16-BB) from Heritage Arms, built with the same classic Western profile as Heritage’s big-bore models but chambered in low-cost, low-recoil rimfire. This configuration pairs a long 16-inch barrel, more commonly seen on a rifle than a revolver, with a Burnt Bronze finish for a distinctive look. It holds 6 rounds and uses fixed front and notched rear sights for a simple, reliable sight picture. It is built for plinking, cowboy action shooting, and collectors who want an affordable single-action revolver with genuine Western styling.
