What’s Included
- Heritage Roscoe .38 Special revolver (2 in. barrel, 5-round capacity)
The Roscoe’s DA/SA action, transfer-bar safety, and exposed hammer provide straightforward control with a smooth-face trigger. Its five-round, swing-out fluted cylinder uses a star ejector for quick extraction, and the revolver is rated for .38 Special +P. Fixed sights include a ramped, serrated front blade and a fixed rear groove for a simple, durable sight picture. A partial underlug adds a touch of forward weight beneath the carbon steel barrel.
Construction is all steel for the frame, receiver, and cylinder, finished in a polished blue that complements the checkered walnut grips. The round-butt grip profile and compact size support discreet carry and easy handling. The 2 in. barrel and fixed-sight setup keep the package trim and purposeful.
Manufacture and marking details are clear: Taurus Armas production in Brazil with Heritage Manufacturing import marks from Bainbridge, Georgia. The frame carries the ROSCOE model marking with the Heritage script monogram logo, and an assembly stamp "023C" is visible on the crane/yoke.
Dimensions are compact without feeling slight: approximately 22 oz in weight, about 6.5 in. overall length, roughly 4.8 in. in height, and around 1.41 in. in width. The specification set, including steel construction, +P rating, and polished blue finish, aligns with the MSRP of $390.
