The 16-inch barrel configuration offers a unique, extended sight radius. A full-length ejector-rod housing with a knurled ejector head supports smooth unloading, and the six-shot fluted cylinder maintains the Rough Rider’s classic single-action profile.
This convertible model ships with a spare .22 WMR cylinder, allowing the revolver to run both .22 LR and .22 WMR cartridges. The cylinder swap provides practical flexibility for different loads while retaining the same familiar platform.
The sighting system is straightforward and visible: a red fiber-optic front blade pairs with an adjustable rear sight featuring green fiber-optic inserts. This combination supports quick alignment and fine adjustment.
Construction details include a 1215 steel barrel, steel cylinder, and a Zamak 5 alloy frame and receiver, all finished in black oxide. It uses a single-action-only mechanism with an external hammer featuring a checkered spur and a hammer-block safety. Factory rollmarks include "HERITAGE ROUGH RIDER .22 CAL" on the barrel and the safety reminder "KEEP EMPTY CHAMBER UNDER HAMMER." Overall length is 21.37 inches, with an unloaded weight of 49 oz.
