I only have one, but I did buy some upgraded grips for it...

I had a Single Six - was stolen in a break in. :( My father
in law, before he passed, gave me a Heritage with a magnum
cylinder and I got IMOP grips for it to 'mimic' my old
Single Six. I'm happy with it. :-)

Agreed! I bought a barkeep, though, and THAT is a fun little gun! :-) I
got the one with the simulated case hardened look and wood grips, and I
bought one of their etched cylinders for it and got a Desantis holster
for it. :-)

I bought another Heritage with black finish and black pearl grips - on
sale at Smokey Mountain Guns - got it home and the sites were off - BAD.

Sent it back and they replaced it, and the replacement is BETTER but still
not 'right.' I'm going to, one day, strip the finish on it and twist the
barral to fix it.

Yep! Right there with you! I also caught another little .22 on sale at
Rural King and picked it up. I can't remember the brand now - Cimmiron 
maybe? What's 'different' about it is the barral is the same size as
a .45 but the 'hole' is for a .22.

Guess what I'm saying is that it is BIG and HEAVY...
