Heritage is well known for it's Rough Rider revolvers in 22LR and 22 Magnum. What they should do now is bring out a top break 22 revolver DA/SA similar to the H&R 999 Sportsman. For those worried about the build quality of a Taurus owned company, I have a Taurus PT92 (a clone of the Beretta 92) and I would challenge anyone to complain about the build quality. I also have a 9mm Taurus revolver which is 100% reliable.

I use mine to train inexperienced shooters and at first they usually ask what’s going on, because they want to shoot the automatics, but after they shoot off about 15 to 20 rounds off the revolvers they usually want to keep shooting. They especially like the reloading. Nothing like learning the basics first.

Looks quite a bit like the Taurus Model 82, 6 round, I bought in 1990. Loved it but stupidly sold it. The person I sold it too is still shooting it to this day. It's got to have 20,000 rounds + through it. A lot of them were from me early on and they were +p Silver Tips. For those who don't know, Taurus & S&W were owned by the same holding company in the 1960s it think. The two shared tech until the 70s when Taurus was sold to someone else. I own a couple of newer Taurus revolvers and a few S&W revolvers. The trigger pull on all the S&W are superior. Other than that, I don't have a problem with the Tuari. Compare $300\$600 for the Taurus vs $700/$900 for the S&W and decide for yourself but I will be purchasing one of these Roscoes for the back yard range, love the look of the blueing and wood grips.

While it has a Heritqage name, don't let that fool you. It's a Taurus Model 85, which is odd because they had retired that model number for the newer Model 856, the latter holding 6 rounds of .38 Special in a cylinder only 0.050" wider than the 5-shot Model 85. If they had used the 856 as the base gun for this Roscoe, it would've been a lovely tribute to the Colt Detective Special, IMHO.

@Lex5576 3 ай бұрын

The Roscoe looks like it's essentially a cross between a Taurus 82 and a S&W Model 10. They did a dandy blueing job on it. I love old school .38 revolvers. I've been wanting a Henry .38 for some time, but the Roscoe looks good too.

@hankwilliams-hx9ww 3 ай бұрын

Henry actually makes their guns to a very high standard with the fit and finish. Each gun is handled with care. Heritage and Taurus on the other hand are rushed out the door and 90% of what they put out should have never left the factory. The bluing looks nice but I can tell you from buying many of their products that it will not last a week of carry before it's covered in rust. Just spend the extra $150 and go buy a used smith. Trust me.

Taurus was never og. They are a bargain brand and have only gotten worse over time. I would take an old 90s Taurus 88 before I ever touched something new from them. Everybody I ever knew who bought one had to send it back in for repair and eventually dumped it off and never turn back. Nobody I've ever known who purchased a heritage, taurus, or Rossi ever bought another one. These guns are what I call lesson learners. They will teach you a thing or two about being impatient and how waiting a little bit longer saving up a little bit more money for the better brand and gun is worth it.

Easier a gun is to carry, Harder to shoot. I like the 3 inch barrel, because 38 spl was converted from Black Powder to Smokeless Powder.. The size of the brass is too big for the amount of smokeless powder used. So, sights are farther apart makes it easier to be accurate. Always have to make sure that gun produces enuff velocity to get hollowpoint ammo to expand. (Umless used as a Training revolver to shoot 357 Magnum later.)

$350, not bad.

Do these work with HKS speedloaders?

This revolver is really hitting on all cylinders for me, but the major detractor aesthetically is that ejector rod hanging out there in the open with no locking bolt connecting. Not to mention the lack of a proper hammer stud. It’s understandable that they omitted this to reduce manufacture time and cost, but visually I would pay the extra money to have it. It might seem silly, but this will be the main reason why I will pass on this revolver. I think heritage should’ve partnered with Rossi on this one. .

Nice. If it came in four five you only need 5 rounds.Cheers

I believe Taurus/Braztech got S&W tooling and rights to manufacture guns in the S&W style. That's why Taurus revolvers have S&W features, i.e., the model 66.

Sixty years ago in Chicago it would be called a “beanie”. That expression was mostly used by police.

So it's a classed up 856 basically?

They got it the cylinder turning the same way as smith so why isn’t it locked at the front?

I wish Taurus would move its roll mark under the barrel or something. I know its made by Taurus and is basically a "retro style" Model 85(it even comes with fhe rubber Taurus snub grips in the box), but its nice to pretend 😂

Since the Taurus acquisition, I can't find a reason to purchase this. I am told it holds 5 rounds. For $30 less, you can own the Taurus 856 and carry 6 rounds. If the Roscoe was made IN Georgia, I would be all in...but here we are.

I thought it was called Roscoe because holding a tiny revolver in both hands aimed out poised to shoot made one want to let out a silly giggle like the sheriff from Dukes of Hazard. FREEZE! I got you Duke boys now.

You can hear the tool marks on the ejector rod. That "zip" sound when he works the ejector rod is the spiral cut by the lathe rubbing against its mating surface. Typical Taurus quality, just get an old Model 36

S&W revolves counterclockwise. This is a copy of the J frame, a solid design, nonetheless.

@Stargun-vj1uh 3 ай бұрын

Yep! Smith's and their derivatives rotate counter-clock wise, Colt's and their derivatives rotate clockwise. Biggest difference handling outside of the latch style.
