Just throw any thing out there and see if it might sell. Not for me. Revolvers over 7.5" don't interest me in the least.

I thought one with a 12 inch barrel was over the top this one is ridiculous

A buddy of mine saw one yesterday at one of the LGS's.
He called to tell me about it, and ah I just had to google it.
Then I thought I'd share with y'all.
To me it's about as practical as the Mare's leg.

Definitely
needs a trigger spur for barrel control.
The barrel length and weight sure would be a handful for off hand, one-hand only shooting!

A buddy from another forum said, it might be alright if could attach a rifle stock to it.

I know there are folks who own Heritage revolvers and are happy with them. For the price point for a gun that won’t blow up in your face they are worth what you pay for them. I have looked at several because of the price tag. I just couldn’t bring one home they don’t have the fit and finish that I expect in a firearm. That long barreled thing still wouldn’t follow me home. I have seen these things attributed to Wyatt Earp. As if he would have carried a long barreled abomination that would have been nearly impossible to draw from a holster.

Maybe they're just giving you extra barrel so you can have it cut to the length you want!

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