Very nice! Now, why are you just sitting there taking picts of it and posting them on here? Get out there and start shooting it!

And we expect a full report of function and accuracy (with pictures) when you are done.



(Please don't take offense. I'm just poking at you)

Awesome!! I haven't been able to find 22lr revolvers for less than $300. How much did that beauty cost?

Nice gun! .22 revolvers are a hoot to shoot; I always bring one to range day. Here're my 17-6s. I love em!

I picked this one up at the local shop for $230. It was a used purchase however so it might take some searching if you wanted the same. Its a High Standard R-109.

They're 4 & 6 inch S&W 17-6s.

Very nice first 22lr! They will multiply once you realize you can shoot a whole brick and have only spent 20-30 dollars.

I don't own a double action revolver in 22lr. Looks like a lot of fun! 9 shots, is only one less than a semi auto and you really don't have to worry about magazines.

Good buy!

Very nice. And more useful than a semi-auto .22.
I would not want to use a semi-auto .22 in a defense scenario. Don't trust rim fire ammo to keep the gun running.

Not such a big worry in a revolver.

Congrats ! If you can shoot a .22 handgun well then you can shoot a larger caliber handgun good as well. Great for trigger control. I shoot my Buckmark often to keep my pistol skills up and it's neighbor friendly.

I will add all my semi autos are very reliable. I take the time to find out what ammo works best and only use the cheap stuff for cans and targets. I seldom get malfunctions with CCI round nose 40 grain, and their hollow points feed well in my 10/22. Unlike the Winchester's larger HPs.
