1. Ruger Mk**
2. Browning.
And as for 22's being ghey, I welcome you to come out one evening with myself and my kids and supply 500 to 1,000 rounds of centrefire ammo instead of 22's.
(and we still go through about 200 to 300 rounds of CF ammo)

.22 handguns are ghey.
Rifles, sure. Handguns , Meh.

Smith and Wesson model 422....fixed sights, reliable as all hell, cheap as ####, and accurate as I want it to be (with 6" barrel). I paid 250 for a barely used one recently and have put 6000 rounds through it. The only misfires/misfeeds I have had were when I used federal cheap econo box 525 round ammo. Everything else feeds like a hungry pirhanna
Colt .22 conversion unit for the 1911 frame. Allows you cheap practice on your favorite platform....
+1
Conversion kit is the most fun you can have. You can pactice lot more with the grip and trigger feel from your favorite pistol, be it Glock, 1911, Sig or CZ. I think it's a very good addition to any pistol when available.
If you are looking for a precisioin target pistol it's an other story.
My Ruger Mk.1 is great- good trigger, light and clean pull right out of the box. Dead reliable, eats anything all day long. I usually shoot at 50m, and it's quite accurate.
I have no problems at all disassembling and re-assembling it, now that I've done it a few times. You just have to read the manual, try it a few times, and the Ruger forum was a help, too.

Another vote for Ruger Pick-Your-Mk.
Plentiful, mags for whatever Mk are easy to come by, aftermarket parts floating around, and more accurate than 99% of the people can shoot it.
There's even kits available to fix the dreaded fieldstrip, but a bit more difficult to come by now with the US export restrictions (and the fieldstrip isn't really that bad, just a PIYA if you have never done one before).
