Calling Mr. Roscoe
One interesting new (well, rebooted) gun design that I am looking forward to testing this summer is the Heritage Roscoe.
A salute to the old-school pocket revolvers from the days of Mike Hammer and Philip Marlowe, the cigar-box-worthy .38SPL +P Roscoe looks right out of the mid-20th Century, clad in a deep glossy finish, classic round butt wood grips, fixed sights, and a 5-shot cylinder. Plus, it is available in both 2- and 3-inch models.
Best yet, it has an ask of $350, which should translate to $299-ish at retail.
