...would like to see a Heritage offer a fully engraved Rough Rider?

Sure! I would also like them to offer the nickel ones again too.

I've never really had a desire for engraved guns. Although I do appreciated them for their beauty, I've just never wanted one. I'm more of "a gun is a tool" kind of guy that enjoys the natural beauty and lines of a gun I guess?

Yep I will never own a safe queen I might look at them as works of art, but would much rather the manufactures make massive quantities of well functioning "tools" at non demand inflated prices.

I'm the same way with cars jj. Why have a car that you can't drive except on and off a trailer for car shows. Don't make much sense to this guy.

While I might not mind having a nicely engraved revolver that would look good on display (although it would get shot some, too), I wouldn't have much interest in an engraved HRR. To me, it would be kind of like those guys who put thousands of dollars into body kits, etc. for a Honda Civic. Nothing wrong with a Civic - just like a Rough Rider they seem to be functional, reliable and a good value. At the end of the day, however, no matter how much you spend on body kits, lambo doors, etc. it is still a Honda Civic. (Funny how Ape and I both hit on car references for comparison.)

I would think that nickel, on the other hand, could help with rust resistance and so on. That would be a 'value added' feature as long as cost were not greatly increased - especially if the HRR were to be carried as a trail gun or the like.

Anyone hear banjos?

I could see an engraved version, but only if it was priced "right". Like $50 to $100 more.
