As I posted in another thread about these a while back...

Cheap. Pot metal. Poor craftsmanship.

I'd take a well-worn H&R over a Heritage any day, but that's just me.

Ronbo73:
I purchased one for my son.  The gun has been flawless,  I would buy another.....

landon410:
was at cabelas yesterday evening and I handled one, felt good.
long story short i bought it, but the wife took it won't let me play with it until my birthday.....

and yes if anyone was at cabelas last night I was the guy who didn't bring the diaper bag and his kid shat himself and it stunk something terrible.... that was me, sorry about that

I have to agree based on my experience with a Heritage Arms Rough Rider that I bought twelve years ago. It seemed like I was forever tightening screws on that thing (I was not keen on loctiting it, though some blue loctite probably would have done the trick). Within a year of buying it, a flat spring broke. I ended up just giving it to my dad.

Bottom line: The Heritage revolvers are a bargain and everything, but they are cheaply made guns, too. There is nothing the matter with buying a cheap gun for some range fun, but when I got another rimfire revolver I ended up getting a Ruger Single-Six.  I am much more impressed with it.

landon410:
the feeling i'm getting is most of them that were purchased more than a couple years ago are pretty rough.
I just handled one yesterday, and a ruger and the action on the heritage felt better
they were sitting side by side in the case at cabelas.

we'll find out how mine shoots and works soon enough
