So one of my guilty pleasures when it comes to firearms are the Heritage Arms
..22
revolvers. Seems that every gun show I go to there's a vendor with a whole
bunch
of these on a table with decorative grips at the attractive price point of
"just
around $160".

Last show picked up one with Billy The Kid grips. 4 1/2" barrel, with wood
grips
bearing the image of Billy The Kid carved into them. Had to have it.

Then there was a 6" barreled revolver with polished grips bearing the US Flag
(one of several styles I've seen). This came home with us too...

I have several of these inexpensive little rimfires, even have one of the .22
revolver carbines. They just seem irresistible at the price they sell them for
and once they get home, they actually make pretty fun little plinkers!

A local gun shop had 2 of the .22 models with the flag grips. He was willing
to sell them as a set for $200

That qualifies as a nice score. I've seen at least three variations of the US
flag on their grips. Did your set have the same pattern or were they
different?

Same pattern. Looked like a matched pair. My guess is that is why the
dealer was thinking he could sell them together.
