So I finally got my Ruger Wrangler from Sportsman's Warehouse a few days back.
Initial impressions are, the burnt bronze finish (or whatever they call it)
actually didn't look that bad.  The sights are somewhere between my Heritage
Arms Rough Rider and my Ruger Single Six in quality and all in all fit and
finish isn't all that bad - considering the price.  The action felt a little
rough and it hung up a few times while cycling the hammer at first, but
eventually it smoothed out and while it's not as silky smooth (yet) as my
Single Six, it is getting better and I'm sure that as I put some rounds through
it it'll "get there."

When all is said and done, I'd have to say that between the Ruger Wrangler at
$179 (or so on sale) and the Rough Rider at $129 (or so on sale), the money is
better spent on the Wrangler.  I'd still drive across the county to get a Rough
Rider at that price, but if they were both at the same place at the prices
described and if I could only get one, it'd be the Ruger.

Well, thanks for listening...
