I shoot a Ruger 22/45 mkII 5.5 bull barrel. I love it its super accurate :tup:
Second that for sure. Had a Smith and Wesson 22 auto - 422, ok accurate, have the Walther .22 again ok accurate... Had the Smith and Wesson .22 revolver- accurate.... Just got the Ruger Mark II, as pictured above, it shoots freaking awesome, will put the smack down on Gophers this year in Wyoming.... The Browning Buck Mark is another super accurate 22 pistol.

The ruger mk are good guns also
Walther p22, not good if you have big hands, but a good gun, get the kit with the barrel extender, grip swells and extra clips.
Ruger single six or if you want to save a few bucks get a heritage rough rider with both cylinders 22-22mag, not as nice as the single six but fun none the less..

My advice is to do some Google searches and include the word "problem" after whatever gun you are searching.
Ruger MKIII problem = About 1,060,000 results (0.27 seconds)
Heritage Special 22lr ( I had to pin it down due to a lot of posts about the Heritage Special motorcycle) = About 257,000 results (0.22 seconds)
Hmmmmm, seems I'm not the only one.

I have shot, and want to buy a ruger single 6 with the swapable cylenders for 22lr and 22mag. Those are SWEET! You get the practice and low cost of a 22lr and the ability to have 22mag... Buddy has one and i want one bad, just don't have the $$$ right now to do it...:tup:
I have one and love it. 22mag has a bit of pop.

There are certainly cooler looking 22 pistols out there but I dare you to find one that is any better than the MkII

I Have a Ruger Single Six Convertible .22 Mag/.22 whatever. It has a 9 Inch barrel and can almost be compared to a rifle. This gun was made in 1959 and is in mint condition. I came by the piece from a friend in the Army. It was left to him by his Grandfather, along with all the components shown in the below picture. The holster is of Calvary vintage and includes the pure Brass cleaning rod shown. His wife was an anti gun nut and demanded he get the gun out of thier house. So he sold it to me for $50.00. Not a bad deal I would say. That was 28 years ago. I have only shot about 1 box of mags and 2 boxes of Long Rifle through it. Enjoy the picture. Muskrat
That's not fair to post something like that!!! If you ever need to sell that one, PLEASE let me know.
I'm a Smith & Wesson model 41 fan. I always shot my old High Standard and made the statement to a friend that it was probably the most accurate semi-auto ever made. He brought his 41 over and proved me very wrong!
I've got a couple Rugers (old MKII, new MkIII, and a 22/45 with TacSol upper), and a full blown VQ. The Smith 41 still outshoots them all with the right ammo.
You can find a few good deals on 22's in the Classified section of the Rimfire Central Forum once in awhile. I've purchased a couple from there over the years.

1 vote for the Browning Buckmark here. I've had mine for a couple years, it's accurate, easy to shoot
:yeah:
I have had a standard model Buckmark since 1995 and it shoots very well. Pretty good factory trigger in mine.
Post by: SemperFidelis97 on February 23, 2012, 09:06:08 PM
walther p22
Ill second that though they are quite expensive these days 300 plus dollars at Cabelas crazy thing is I bought mine like 4 years ago for 180 dollars at Sportco when they were pretty new. They sell a matched pair with the P22, and the P380 I own both, and would recommend looking into that. You can practice with the P22, and pack your P380 both are of a very similar size.

Single Six for me as well. . . . . It is one of my favorite things to give as a graduation gift to friends and family.
Sounds a little better than the fancy ink pen I got. :( Single Six is definitely a fun gun, I've got a Browning Buckmark that's fun as well. One I haven't seen mentioned yet, Beretta Neos, my son has one with a red dot sight and it's a blast to shoot.
Post by: ghosthunter on February 23, 2012, 10:30:05 PM
okay, I see we need a pic of a single six. This single six still works like the day I bought it. I can't say to much for the rest. That gun slinger hostler as shrunk. Hatchet sheath is all worn out. Back pack is out dated. But the single six is still like new. :chuckle:

I got one just like it except i have the colorado bi centeninal model all engraved.
Post by: Sportfury on February 23, 2012, 11:26:47 PM
Browning Buckmark, hands down, no question. I own two and would never part with either one. I agree with FC, problem waithing to happen on the Ruger automatics. Plus you can't hardly access the chamber without stripping the gun. They are overrated in my opinion. I've had two and would not buy another.
Another plus for the Browning Buckmark. I love mine and have no issues with it. It will shoot anything I put in it. As for the Ruger I highly considered it until I shot one then there was no comparison with the Browning for me. I would like to shoot one of the newer Rugers to see how that compares as I bought my Browning back in 2007, but for now I love the Browning.

:) I've still got the Cross pen and pencil set from my graduation and the Bible. I had to fillet about 1,200 fish to get the Single Six on my own ($0.25 a fish back then).

Sig Mosquito
Walther P22
Smith Wesson 41
Ruger 22/45 MKII and MKIII
Ruger MKII
Beretta Bobcat
Beretta Neos
Sig 229 Conversion
1911 Conversion
Jiminez/Jennings
Ruger Bearcat
Ruger Single Six
PMR 30
AMT Automag
Colt Woodsman
H&R Revolver
Browning Buckmark
T/C Contender 22lr and 5mm rimfire
If I had to buy a new one...
It would be a Ruger MKIII or Ruger 22/45...with the "bolt slingshot mod" and magazine disconnect removed (mkII hammer bushing).
Second choice would be a browning buckmark. Just as accurate and reliable, but a smaller aftermarket and mags a little harder to find locally.
My "go to" is a stainless MKii with a fluted tactical solutions upper and all VQ internals. Light, accurate, reliable...and cost too much for a 22lr!
If I could only have one...
Ruger bearcat OLD MODEL! The new ones are junk.
It's basically a single six, at about 2/3 scale. Small and fun.
Theres just something about single shots and single action revolvers...its nice to slow down and relax.
Most hated
Sig Mosquito and P22. Cheaply made, picky on ammo.
Sig P series conversions...every one of 'em shoots low. Picky on ammo.
Jennings/Jiminez. Enough said. Junk.
Most interesting
Beretta Neos. Akward in my hands but kids and women always loved this one the most. Its great for small hands and lends itself well to optics. Since I enjoy taking new shooters and teaching kids the ropes, this one will stick around.
PMR 30. Kind of ugly, and even more uncomfortable than the grip on a desert eagle 44mag...huge capacity, but velocity is weak for a 22mag due to slow burning powder. A novelty, IMHO.
Yes, I'm a rimfire whore.
Awwwe heck, I'm just a gun whore...period.
