Occasionally, run a patch through the barrel.ДЄs for accuracy, the fixed-sight handguns have as much intrinsic accuracy as target-sighted handguns.I have fired these revolvers extensively over the years and cannot recall any of themВ giving me trouble. MaintainingВ the Rough Rider The handgun has more of a cowboy look and is pretty popular. Consider the long barrel gun for hunting perhaps, and a short-barrel handgun for recreation. Frankly, as inexpensive as these handguns are, it isnвЂ™t a stretch to own more than one. These are serious small game revolvers, particularly when the revolver is fitted with the.

The revolvers with fully adjustable sights are also fitted with a large post or fiber optic front sight.

However, if you wish to own a crackerjack hunting revolver, the full adjustable sights in the upgraded version are the superior option. I like the look of the cowboy gun and, with fixed sights, you may apply the lessons of marksmanship. The 6.5-inch barrel of my personal fixed-sight version gives excellent balance. Yet the grip gives a hand-filling portion providing good stability when firing. This revolver is about three-quarter the size of most single-action centerfire revolvers, so the fit is right for just about anyone.

Once the trigger releases, the transfer bar is no longer in contact with the firing pin. Cock the hammer, then press the trigger.В When you do this,В a transfer bar rises, taking the hit from the hammer and transferring this momentum to the frame-mounted firing pin. The hammer isnвЂ™t touching the firing pin when the hammer is at rest with the Rough Rider. In the earliest revolvers, the hammer would simply rest on the primer of the cartridge when lowered.

The transfer bar system is far safer than that used with the first single-action revolvers.

The modern Rough Rider has an advantage over early single-action revolvers. Just as we startВ a young shooter with a single-shot, bolt-action rifle, the single-action revolver is a great place to begin the shooting life.
