My father in law gave me his Heritage Rough Rider for a late
birthday present! So instead of buying one at all, I have that
one. LOL
Took it home that day and ran 18 rounds through it. I thought the
sights were fine! That 'rear groove' cut into the top strap was
a new thing for me, but I adopted quickly!

LOL - yeah, and that's part of it... I can't justify $500 plus for a
'fun' gun to shoot... Not when I can get a Heritage or a Wrangler
for $199. LOL And now that I have this one, I'm fine to dress it up
with pearl grips and a nice 'yard' holster and if money ever becomes
a non-issue I can get a Single Six again. LOL Or if I find a good one
used or something...

LOL - good point! :-)
