Heritage Mfg
Myself

Posted on 06/24/2022 8:10:09 PM PDT by Smellin Salt

So just a complaint here since I can’t complain to the company. My wife bought me a 22 caliber heritage Roughrider. It’s been sent back to the manufacturer three times due to the cylinder completely locking up while shooting.,So tonight I tried to shoot it and it wouldn’t fire a single round. I hate the cast shade on the company but there’s no way to contact them and let them know of your problems

Mine works great with 22 shorts and long rifles. Sorry to hear you got the other end of the bell curve.

Oh my goodness. The court of free republic has spoken. I knew better than to buy one of these things but I failed to tell my wife.

I suppose I should be punished.

I’m not quite sure what you’re saying here. So my best response will be this. I play the odds. A no-name firearm might be great. Or maybe not.

I’d rather pay the extra money, and get a Colt or a Smith & Wesson. If you disagree, that’s okay. As for me, I’ve had too many jams on the firing line with second-rate stuff. So I go with quality, and not with price.

Your experience might be different. As I noted earlier, that’s okay.

Very rugged and light weight as well. I took out many a water moccasin with that gun.

Mine works just fine in both .22lr and .22 mag. It’s pretty accurate too. Quirky though with the safety on a revolver.

Please don’t. You will be shocked by the price and parts are very hard to come by.

You sound like a prudent investor.

Get a Ruger Mark IV 22/45. Threaded for a suppressor and has a rail on top for a red dot.

Loads of fun.

Shooting should be fun, not a pain in the ass.

Like many at the buyback, I invested the profits in lead futures.

So one of my kids is a young, single highly compensated aerospace engineer with a penchant for buying guns.

He just came over today with his latest acquisitions, including anHeritage rough rider.

My own personal rule is if I need to send a gun back more than one time I am getting rid of it.

More fun you will not have at the range.

Less noise, less recoil, allowing for quicker follow up shots.

Add in steel targets and it is about a such fun as one can have with their clothes on.
