I’ve been wanting one of those for awhile but always held off. No particular reason, just did. This might make me get serious and finally pick one up.

I have fondled the Ruger Wrangler several times. It is MUCH nicer than the Heritage Rough Rider.
If I didn't already have a Single Six, I'd own one.
With the WMR option and adj sights, I still might...

JM2CW, but the free spin pawl on the Wranglers is worth the the added cost versus Heritage products.
Open the loading gate, spin the cylinder either direction, makes loading / unloading much easier.

Ruger is pretty good about making stuff you didn't know you needed.

The free spin pawl was first added to the new Vaquero's to appeal to the SASS and CAS crowd.

Like I always say, you can't go wrong with a Ruger. They are right up there near the top.
If not THE top.
I already had the Rough Rider before the Wrangler was offered with 2 cylinders.
Ruger did that because the Rough Rider was eating into their business.
I like the detent cylinder stop on the Rough Rider because it makes the ejector rod line up with the cylinder. That's actually faster to empty the cylinder IMO.
And the Rough Rider is a pretty sweet little gun and 100$ less than the Ruger.

I think the Super Wrangler is in response to the Diamondback 22/.22mag which looks like a single action but can be fired double.

Has anyone shot the adjustable rear sight on the Ruger Super Wrangler yet? How did it do?
And... Is the frame steel? I think the Rough Rider is Zinc but not sure. Feels heavier than aluminum tho.

Ruger seems to be a bit slow in keeping up with what gun owners want apparently ? they didn't come out with the Wrangler until the Heritage 22 had become a big hit on the market , and then they only came out with a 22lr version ? instead of one that would shoot both ? The adjustable sights are a great addition to this model, but why couldn't they have come out with this a few years ago ? I've had a couple of Heritage's for a few years now, and my favorite is a 3.5 inch birds head grip model, and having both cylinders gives me the ability to have a short barreled quick handling version in 22 magnum, which Ruger doesn't make ,,, smh

Yes, the frame is made of a steel alloy.

I have the Heritage convertible with both cylinders. Mine has fiber optic front sight and adjustable rear. Has always shot fine to me. Finished off many pigs in traps with it.
Seems like I got it for about $130 at Academy back in maybe 2012 or so. Ended up getting a free holster because there was a scratch on the grip and it was the display model.
The grips on mine are a laminated looking color with greens and browns. Really nice looking.Rosewood
edit: Just looked up, they call it the "camo" grip.
