Who shoots .22 Handguns?

[Theslab1]

Hi Standard and Ruger MkIII are very fun, accurate and inexpensive to shoot.
Expensive to go shoot thru 100 rnds of .45 ammo every time at the range.
.22 is a bargain yo shoot and many great guns from various manufactures.
Everyone should have a .22

1st post, yea!
Mark III 22/45 and a heritage rough rider. Both equally fun, just different...

Congratulations on your 1st post, you've taken the first step. Enjoy the ride.

I've been wanting a stainless Smith kit gun with mammoth ivory grips.........just too cool! (sold my 648 6"and about had a heart attack when seeing the going prices of the more portable Smiths!)

I'll be out at the range in the morning with Montezuma.
Among others, we'll be shooting a brand new Smith & Wesson 22A, and an old H&R Sportsman.

I think it may be the first time I've ever been to a range on Christmas Day.

For those that complain about the Ruger self-loaders, I highly recommend the Majestic Arms "Speed Strip". I have it in all of my 22/45s.

You sir just got repped!

All of the complaints I ever had about the Ruger Mark series have just been eliminated. My next purchase will have to be a MarkIII with a Mark II conversion kit and the easy maintenance kit.

Had a H&R 922? 929 hated it.
Got a P22 in a trade and everyone in the house fights over it.
Looks like I'll get 3 more tax time. OD Pink and Black

I like the Berretta Jaguar. If Mosad used it must be good.... The single action Plinkerton revolver will eat up most misfires and jams...

I liked each one. About as cheap (ammo) as you are going to get. Don't get rid of them.

shoot the beretta neos all the time and very very accurate

I have a couple of Buckmarks and a Walther TPH. I love to shoot the brownings.

My first .22 handgun was a Heritage, and I was hooked from the moment I brought it home. I havent brought home a second one for myself yet, but I did score a great buckmark for the wife last year, and now she is hooked on the little pistols too.

I have a Bigh Standard Sport King 103 . Very fun to shoot , very accurate and dependable.

I used to own about 40 beautiful High Standards but lost all but 2 in a divorce in 1994. Had woman anti-gun judge.

WTF??? She awarded them to your EX? Or did she pull something out of her ass ordering you to sell them?

Glad I found this thread. I am actually wanting to get a .22 1911. Anyone have any suggestions on what brand that is a nice gun but won't break the bank? I really just want this as a range gun because I love the look and feel of the 1911 but can't afford to go spend a ton of money to shoot a .45 at the range as I could cheaply do with the 22.

The GSG1911 has been working very well for me. There are several 1911 pattern .22LR's it there, but unless you are willing to shell out big for a Colt Ace, I would say the GSG1911 is one of your best choices. The SIG is just the rebranded GSG for an extra $100, the Chiappa doesn't actually operate like a true 1911, the Browning is not to actual scale size. I was drooling over Kirk's custom built compact 1911 .22LR a page ago though; it looks like a true, all steel version.

Thanks I will check out the GSG for sure. What do you mean that the CHiappa doesn't actually function like a true 1911?

What about these?

 

[greyhound47]

I just bought an M&P22 pistol for training on the cheap. It is a fantastic pistol. I LOVE shooting this pistol.

Saw this .22 1911 in American Rifleman magazine. How do you like it?

I have a S&W m&p .40c. I would be intersted in one of these. How much? And How do you like it?
