Looking for .22 recommendations

There's .22 all over the place here. Can't find .223 or .556, .45 and .40 is a challenge, .380 is minimal...but .22 aplenty.

A billion .22 shells on gunbrokers.com. You can buy them by the bucket full - really.

I'm planning on purchasing a .22 pistol in the near future and I'm looking for recommendations. I love my Bersa .380 CC model, but I'm not a big fan of the Bersa .22s I've come across. Would prefer a magazine instead of a revolver, but other than that I'm open to just about anything within a reasonable price range (would like to spend less than $450).

I'd recommend that you go to a gun store that has a shooting range onsite and try a few out to figure out what is best for you.

Kick the tires and take them for a test drive before you fork out the dough.

STAINLESS IS BETTER - plus cost less being "used" - ie MORE FOR LESS $$ - plus nice scope or laser sight top rail. This is pretty little Ruger and Ruger's are reliable quality. It is worth hundreds more than the new blued one above. Being used, you won't lose value. Looks pristine. An new pistol is used anyway once you buy it.

Serial number is 655NX09157.

Or piss off the anti-gunners with this "assault .22" (I don't like it myself.)

pix183431858.jpg



FOR USE, I'd go for the Stainless S&W myself. For value, the Browning, but I like the Stainless S&W OR Ruger better for usage...NAW, I'd go for the Browning. Uncommon, HIGH quality, and you'd be the only one you know with anything like it. Brownings are AAA guns. You can take off the forearm on the Browning.

The assault .22 is a POS, but it'd shoot. Probably jam up regularly.


GET THE IDEA? GO to gunbrokers.com. Search ".22" and then the sub heading "semi-auto pistols". Click on "price" tab at top from highest to lowest. Now you are shopping the entire USA, not just one gun store.

I just gave my .22 target pistols to my son and SIL....the S&W, and Browning Buckmark shown in previous posts....both good guns. Had a ruger Mk1 with 5" bull barrel a long time ago, also a good gun for target shooting or home use.
I can't do semiauto as easily as I used to, the hands are going south on me. So I am looking for a small revolver for CC...

Ruger makes that little composite revolver in 22 now-8 shots

load it with stingers and its a nasty light weight low recoil self defense weapon
