Which 22 pistol to buy?

[DARKSTANG]

Where did you get it ? Does it have the 6" or 4.5" barrel ?

The 4.5" is pretty sweet. They have a 6" at Gobles in London, Ontario. Can't remember the price. ACCURATE as hell.

 

[b_w.]

I would go for the Sig 226. Great pistol and can upgrade to 9 or 40 down the road.

Nice pistol. I had one but the double action trigger pull was nasty. The single action with the short stroke kit was awsome.

Picked it up at magnum guns in lloydminster AB. great guys, lots of info for newbs like me. It has the 6 inch barrel and i decided to go with the non chromed up version. very happy with my purchase. especially for it being a impulse buy. (just like the rest of my rifles haha)

Thanks. That gun is at the top of my "to buy" list right now. Are you going to put a red dot or something similar on it ?

a friend has the sig 226...over 1800 rounds of CCI minimags...not one issue

I am gonna put a lot more rounds through it and learn to shoot one accurately before I get a red dot. however it is in the plan. Have to get a scope for my 7mm magnum rifle first. its an addicting expensive hobby haha

22/45 LITE?

It's a mark III action with the "45" frame and an aluminum upper receiver. Weighs about half as much as the mark III target I think.

Apparently there was a recall on the Neos:

Ruger MKIII

Not a good looking gun, but very reliable ans rock solid. The best bang for your buck.

I have the 5" version and it's very precise. I can shoot 5 bowling pins at 60y with 10 rounds ( on a rest).

I'd pick the Ruger Mk lll followed closely by the Buckmark.

Rob is right on!

I think the best bang for the buck is a ruger. The best I've ever owned was a S&W 41 with a 7 inch barrel. I used to win a lot of whiskey with it.

best .22 pistol

I find most of the new guns jam alot due to the low grain ammo not giving enough umph to eject the cartridge. My goto plinker is a Browning Nomad from the 60s I believe. I have put 1000's of rounds thru it with never a jam, extremely accurate, normal maintainence. Love it, nothing better than a solid metal gun, Colt has a close cousin called the Huntsman, They are cheaper than new too.
