The Heritage Rough Rider 16\" .22 LR Carbine is a single-action rimfire that trades the long sight radius of a traditional rifle for the handling of a compact shooter. Built on the same frame that earned the Rough Rider revolver a following among casual shooters and small-game hunters, this carbine version adds a 16-inch barrel and shoulder stock to give you more velocity and control without the bulk of a full-length rifle. It's the kind of firearm that makes sense in a truck rack, a cabin corner, or strapped across your back on a walk through the property—light enough at under 4.2 pounds that you won't resent carrying it all day, but solid enough to be genuinely useful for dispatching pests, plinking, or introducing a younger shooter to centerfire-style rifle handling in a lower-recoil platform.
The .22 LR round is forgiving to shoot and kind to your wallet, and this Heritage delivers it through a simple single-action trigger and straightforward fixed sights—no batteries, no adjustments that need zeroing at the range. The black oxide finish is workmanlike and resists light corrosion, while the walnut stock gives the carbine a classic ranch-rifle look that doesn't apologize for its practical roots. With a 6-round capacity and thumb safety managed by the hammer itself, operation stays uncomplicated: load, fire, repeat. There's no magazine to fumble, no charging handle to work, and no unnecessary features to fail.
Heritage has positioned this carbine at the intersection of revolver simplicity and rifle performance—it won't outshoot a dedicated match .22 or hunt like a centerfire, but it does what it's designed to do: provide reliable, no-fuss rimfire capability in a compact, portable package. If you've built your battery around Heritage revolvers, or you want a lighthearted rifle that still delivers practical accuracy at farm distances, the Rough Rider carbine earns its place.

The Rough Rider carbine uses the same single-action mechanism and .22 LR chambering but adds a 16-inch barrel and shoulder stock for increased velocity, sight radius, and control. You gain rifle-style handling and a longer sight plane, but sacrifice the revolver's compact, pocket-friendly profile.
Yes. The .22 LR is a traditional small-game cartridge used for squirrel, rabbit, and other varmints within reasonable range. The fixed sights and simple trigger mean you'll need to practice to establish your zero and understand the trajectory, but it's a viable option for controlled small-game work.
No. The Rough Rider 16" carbine comes with fixed front and rear iron sights only. There is no documented rail system or receiver-mounted provisions for optics. It's designed around open-sight shooting.
The safety is integrated with the hammer—it's engaged and disengaged via the thumb lever on the left side of the frame. When the hammer is down, the firearm is safe; cocking the hammer prepares it to fire when you press the trigger.
