iterate your .22 handguns

A pic of some:

008-2.jpg


J frames, K frames, MKII, a nice old Walther PP from West Germany, a couple of Colts from the 50s.. Kind of a normal assortment.
 
Looks like I need to get to the gun shop... all I have is ruger mark II bought new by me in the mid 1980's. Next one will be a revolver of some type. Something tells me I better get that handled soon :(

and the other is a Gold-Plated version called "The Yellow Rose of Texas" Model

Same but with a 9.5er
Ruger Ol Model Bearcat

Not bad at all IdahoMike (don't short yourself).

Now the last I heard about ol' 'Slim Pickens' is that he's kinda making himself an 'unwelcome guest' in many a folks home nowadays ;).
 
I've never made a full list, just a couple favorites, so here's what attracted me enough to buy;

Colt Woodsman Match Target 6". My very first gun. A jewel.

S&W 622
Walther PPK/S
Daewoo DP22, next to the Colt, my favorite plinker.

Sig Mosquito
Colt Frontier Scout
Walther TPH, a very nice gun
S&W K22, very sweet trigger.

GSG 1911-22, my newest purhase. So far, so good.

My 'collection' is meager, but loved.

Colt Frontier Scout - came with .22 Magnum cylinder, don't really shoot it much as it is Grandpa's revolver, more of a family thing than an everyday shooter.

Smith & Wesson M&P 22 -bought it Monday, love it. That pistol will see many, many rounds in its future.
 
Ruger MKIII Hunter
Ruger SP101
Bersa Thunder 22
Kimber 1911 Ceiner conversion
Taurus 92afs Ceiner conversion
That is the ones that are still hanging around.

highpower3006,

Classic and beautiful guns that made/make America proud :)! One can debate which country makes the best semis, but no one can doubt that the U.S. has been the world's greatest designer/manufacturer of Revolvers.

That said, I was just going to ask you how old is the ammo in the pic?

-Cheers

I'm not real sure, I think the Remington dates from around WWII +or- a couple years. The Winchester is probably from the '50's and I bought the Peters to hunt ground squirrels with when I was around 13 or so (1964). I also have a brick of Sears branded .22's that I bought around the same time.
