Never have had one of those in my hand need to try one out one of these days. Mark needs one of those to go along with his avatar

I'd like to have one in either 45 colt or 357, with a 4 or 4.5 inch barrel.

Randy, I went to that link and scrolled down to the "Birdshead" revolver. Now, that one I like. Not the 16"er.

You mean like this

Yep. That would be a neat .22 for dancing cans in the desert. That one right there.

it might be alright if could attach a rifle stock to it.

I'll bet an accessory buttstock attachment won't be far behind.

Really no other reason for a 16" barrel on a revolver.

Now that's Purty!

Definitely ....

A buttstock will not be supplied for that revolver unless it is attached and can't be taken off. At least in the U.S.A. this would equal three hots and a cot. A friend of mine has a Heritage .22 and he has been trying to get a new grip screw for over a year. I think that the new Ruger will cut into this market.

I agree Travlin, I have a pair of the Heritages and they are fine, heck I have one that ain 't no telling how rounds have been through it.
But pretty sure if I ever did have a problem, I might find it hard to get it serviced.
The Ruger I wouldn't have to worry as I have heard they have a good CS.
And well I already have several to start with.

Like I said earlier a buddy saw it text me I googled it and thought I would just throw it out for discussion.

Don't get me wrong, I like long barreled revolvers. I have a K-22 with the 8 3/8" barrel. I would think that the Heritage would get more buyers with a ten or twelve inch barrel. I think that when H&R was still making .22 handguns that they had a twelve inch model.
