What Is Your Favorite .22lr Handgun

[Splitear]

I’ve got 2, my dad’s old K-22, and a S&W Victory. I enjoy them both, but I’ve been jonesing for one of the Ruger MK IV’s. My Victory shoots great, and fits my hands comfortably, but I really think it’s a rather ugly gun. 

Anyways, thinking about it just got me wondering what everyone’s favorite .22 caliber handgun is.

Ruger Government Model Mark II

I've outshot guns costing far more when paired with correct ammo

I also own my father’s K22. It was the first handgun I ever shot as well as the one I’ve shot most in my lifetime.

Victory and single six here too.  I guess I agree the Victory is kinda ugly, but man can it shoot!

Here’s my P229 in 22LR. It’s nice to have the same manual of arms as my other weapons.

Just picked this up today I’ve watched a bunch of reviews on it and supposed to be very reliable.  Got it so my wife can just get the basics of shooting down.  It’s a Taurus TX 22 hoping to take it out after the holidays.

The first handgun I ever bought....It is a S&W  K-22  masterpiece with a 6" barrel...

I bought it in August  1974 in Horseheads NY  for around  $130-140  IIRC....NIB..Still got the box...

It has always shot better than I can and would be the last handgun I'd ever part with..

My Ruger Mark iii hunter.... especially when i have to take it apart. Seriously. i'm still not happy with it, but i have hours into polishing parts and the inside of it or installing aftermarket stuff on it like Volquartsen trigger kit. still not done and messing with the grips. it's like your kid when they're a menace. you still love them. you have to! lol
