1st I’ve heard of that. Thanks for posting it.

What makes this different from a regular Wrangler (most with 4 5/8" barrels), except that it accommodates .22 magnum? Just curious.
OP
The super wrangler is normally 5.5” barrel, extra 22 mag cylinder, and adjustable sights. Anniversary edition has 4 5/8” barrel and “made in the 250th year of American Liberty “ stamped on the barrel. It too has the mag cylinder and adjustable sights. They had one of each at the shop, and those are the only differences I saw.
OP
I found out about them a couple days ago and got lucky and found one locally.
I'm with you, 4 5/8 is my favorite barrel length. It just plain looks cool and balances just right!

Tempting, but I'm waiting for them to make it in .32 H&R. Please...
OP
I definitely agree. My 32 mag single six is also 4 5/8 and I love it! My 45 Colt NM Blackhawk is 5.5” and is slightly nose heavy.I'm with you, 4 5/8 is my favorite barrel length. It just plain looks cool and balances just right!
OP
That would be great! The shop I bought this from also had a Heritage in 32 H&R that I’d never heard of before. I’m pretty sure it had a 6.5” barrel. It didn’t have adjustable sights either.
There was one for sale in the classifieds. It didn't last long.

I've got a 32 Single Six, waiting on the Super Wrangler 32 mag.
OP
Got to shoot it today with the 22lr cylinder. Sights were pretty close from the factory with Federal bulk ammo. Trigger was only ok, but had a clean break. I’ll shoot a few hundred rounds to break it in to see if the trigger eases up. Overall, I’m really impressed!
OP
Ordered a set of bonded ivory grips from Altamont. These grips are beautiful at a budget price.
Adjustable sights and a steel frame.
Recently laidaway a nice older 32 singlesix at one of my favourite shops, and had them look into ordering me a couple hrr 32's, too. Should be about 3 for what the ruger cost.
Taurus owns heritage, and builds their own saa clones, but the hrr 32 mag 25 years ago was allegedly a pietta, as were thr 44 mag, 45colt, and 45/410 saa clones they briefly marketed.

OP
I bought a 32 mag single six a few months ago, and also have a couple older H&Rs in 32 mag. I’m seriously considering one of the Heritage 32s.
Nice find! 4-5/8" is by far my preferred barrel length.
There's one in the display case at my LGS that's likely to come home with me in the near future.
Now I have to buy it because I've already ordered some grips for it!

That is a beauty...........
OP
They were only $52 shipped. A friend turned me on to Altamont, and I’ve got another set ordered for my 32 mag Single Six.That is a beauty...........
Just read one on gunblast; the 32s of 20 years ago were steel, not " just like the .22s".
There is a thread on the high road, too. And on yootoob, is one frim 4 years ago, and one from 12 years ago.
Your disbelief is understandable, young grasshopper.
But, your research skills are lacking.
They have steel .22's smart guy. The point being, they're not made by Pietta. They're the exact same platform as the rimfires. Been at this a long time. Now you can post a pic of a .410 SAA, grasshopper.
I stated the first run was multiply reported as initially being by pietta. They have done some limited runs of them in ,22 in steel for states that want them to survive 1,000 degrees for some silly reason, but i dont recall any solid mention on where those frames originated. Since the pietta statement has been made for some years, j dont hafta make this stuff up.
So, i need post a picture of the .410? You cant find it, yourself?
I will consider this. And not just for you.

Some history and clsrification on the subject of steel hrr 22s and 32s abd 45s and 45/410s..
I have never seen any except a fine pair of the 45s j briefly owned last year.. They have always been listed as out of stock if i ever ran across one. The "black steel" .22s at buds have been reported elsewhere online as black steel finish; its the appearance of black steel, not real (black) steel.
Heritage is descended from eig and fie and others it swallowed up after the gca'68, they initially imported them whole from herbert schmidt then imported them as parts and assembled them until they fully jigged up to cast and maschine them in-house. The piettas i mentioned were reportedly imported pietta frames finished by hrr, supposedly not imported compleat. I have yet to read where the current steel are imported or inhouse. Produced by hrr, does not nor has ever meant fully manufactured inhouse, since in the past it has meant and included their models with imported frames and inhouse parts as produced by hrr, at the floridian address.

You are all over the place and most of it is incorrect. The steel (super cheap 12L14 steel) Rough Rider is exactly the same as the zinc Rough Rider, differing only in the composition of the receiver. The ONLY guns made for Heritage by Pietta are the actual SAA replicas, like the one in the Taffin article. They were made wholly by Pietta, not finished by Heritage out of raw parts. Not any of the rimfires, not the .32's and not that .410 monstrosity you just pictured. Which is also not an SAA replica but looks like an enlarged version of their cheap rimfire guns.
Yes, the biggie does display many classic hrr lines, and i only know that it was made, where you doubted its existence. It is as much saa replica as the BFRs are, but it WAS sold as a hrr.The pietta references i ran across for the 45s i briefly owned last year. The pietta reference i ran across for the assembled 32mag steelies, were 20 years ago, and may be deep into the mojobaki, lost in the algorerythms, and it lightly interests me to casually continue the chase as i feel.
Your statements of their nonexistence amuse me, and have already proven to be in error two out of three times on this subject. So, while the current new hrr 32 mags appear to be hrr designs, i had mentioned the pietta reference in relation to the ones from 25 years ago, and is NOT refuted by the gunblast article i saw.
And (sigh) i did NOT state the 45s, nor the 45/410, were hrr-assembled pietta parts, i merely stated that in their past hrr did assemble from imported parts, as the steel hrr 32s were reported to have been; by then their hrr 22s were all inhouse or locally sourced.
Let me repeat myself, the Heritage .32's are the same as the .22's and NOT made by Pietta, now or ever.
You have not proven me in error, at all. The .410 monstrosity is not an SAA replica and neither is the BFR. Unless you just think all single action revolver shaped objects are "SAA clones".
The ONLY Heritage/Pietta connection is the actual SAA replica, imported as completed guns. They did the same for Traditions.

Then what does this mean? You're so all over the place, conflating multiple concepts into one mess, I don't know where to begin.

The more you rant about with such absolutes as "never" and "only", the more i laugh and the closer i get to spending the time to find the 2-decade old mentions of hrr sourcing the steel .32 frames from pietta. You remind me of some of the trolls i find elsewhere.
As for wrong, kid, you stated hrr dident do a 410, and a 30 second search found the one i put up. And i am amused at your admission that you dont know where to begin, when to my mind you are the one all over the place. The gunblast you quoted does NOT state that hrr made the steelframe 22s or 32s, and does not refute my saying they were outsourced. As for your denial of replicas, the 7/8 scale is not a colt replica, either. Semantics, kid. Colt's never made an 85% saa.
Adit; the americsn rifleman article ststes the 32 hrr is a new model, and neither mentions the steel 32 mag from the early 2000s, nor that it is using the steel frame the steel hrrs used in the past. "New" likely means not-old, as in not a spiffed-up 20-some year old model, and does not mean "exactly the same platform as the rimfires ". The hrrs of today arent exactly the same platfirm as they were 20 years ago, either. Its like they have changed some things there, too. Parts simply do not swap if they are made far enough apart. Hrr says it is a new gun, and dosent mention it as a continuation of the 2000's model, which one isnt likely to admit if they imported the basic steel casting.
