WTB small, cheap .22 revolver

[geezer77]

Looking to buy a low cost small size .22LR revolver to use with noisemaker blanks and snake loads. I own nice .22LR handguns but refuse to use blanks or snake loads in them on the farm. For this revolver, ugly doesn't matter, good mechanical/shootable condition does. F2F in SW OKC area. Did I say cheap?

How cheap is cheap? You can usually find the little Heritage Arms Rough Riders for around or a little more than $100. You might find something used for less, but probably not a lot less.

Sure, that's a good price range, and of course I see the Heritage RR's all over. If they had a "Sheriff" model with 2" or 3" bbl I'd be interested. Sort of put off by the usual "full" size cowboy models, have no use for a 4-7" bbl, would much prefer something more pocketable if I can find it. If they weren't so pricey I'd like to have a top break NAA with both cylinders.

Sooner State Pawn had a couple Heritage Rough riders earlier this week for a little over a $100

They make the Rough Rider with 3.5 inch barrels, and the BarKeep models as short as 1". I think it was Atwoods, or maybe it was one of the online stores that advertised the BarKeep for a little more than $100 recently, but it's usually the Rough Riders you see on sale occasionally for $99.

Thanks, Aires, that Barkeep model sounds exactly like what I need. I live near an Atwoods, will check it out.

Not to mention, they are just cool little guns. I has a 3 inch heritage with the birds head grip in 22 mag. Shoulda kept it

While I was recently in BigBoys they had an old H&R 9 shot double action for $200-ish.

Mustang Atwoods usually has the barkeep but the price is up to $179 on it. Still a cool little pistol though and I’ve considered buying one myself

BigBoys also had an old ruger bearcat for $250ish if remember correctly
