How about some pictures of your .22 Handguns

I have quite a few pistols and a couple of revolvers in 22lr and like all of them.My favorite overall lately has been my Kel-Tec CP33 with a Swampfox Kingslayer red dot. That thing is accurate out to 85 yards (farthest I have shot so far) and fun fun fun. Plus I love the look on people's faces as they wait to see if/when I am going to reload. Gotta love the 33 round magazines. I haven't bought the 17 round extensions (50 rounds total) yet.

I'll play. My 47 and 53 k22s (not sure which one belongs to box and small grips) and dads mark 1. My mark 2 target and a good ole fie tex22 I believe. Others are common.

A couple more that I hadn't had a chance to download before:

My Buckmark and little Black Widow. I also have a little Kel Tec P17, but it has been claimed by the wife

Only have 3 rimfire handguns.
Ruger Single Six. Taurus 992, and Ruger Mark IV Target

Just this thing.
Just picked it up 4 days ago. Was loading ammo Easter Sunday and my dad says "I can't believe you don't own a .22 handgun"...after consideration, I couldn't believe it either. Didn't look hard for one, but ran across this one at the LGS for a price I could stomach.

My completely reliable, not the least bit finnicky P22.

Apparently, I'm one of the few.

Rim fire handguns are a weakness.....will post more later.

My forever 22 pistol, I think it'll survive me, my kids, their kids and the apocalypse. No mk4 required, I'm good.

I was just out giving a recently acquired 3 1/2" S&W pre-M43 Airweight and brought my old M41 that I fitted the short barrel that I bought on clearance from Midway years ago. Original is the 7" barrel.

The guns.



The groups at 25 yards, M41 top trying different loads, "M43" bottom with Federal AutoMatch bulk.

The only thing I have more of than .22 handguns are .22 rifles, many would be redundant from others posted here. There are many fine ones, not sure if I could pick a favorite I suppose least favorite would be easier.

That would be the little NAA one to actually shoot but this one would be a close 2nd for me but one many young and new shooters pick up first to try.



Likely the only reason I still have it, I am a sucker for anything that gets people to get into shooting. Once they are having a good time I can roll in a “Now try this....”

Nice MK III (I think) It better be your forever. I lusted after a MK II Target Slab Side for for a reasonable price for ages until I found the MK II Target I posted earlier. Note how I said reasonable price. I could never find a slab side for under $500. I bought the Standard Target for $225 OTD and then some thumb rest grips later for $35.

Yeah, mk3. I honestly don't remember what I paid, I think I bought it around 2012.

Reminds me of the time my BIL duct taped a 4 cell mag lite to the barrel of his 22 rifle. Yeah it was a bit muzzle heavy.

Hey, that's double sided tape. The way I see it. Thats 2 times as tactical as duct tape. Plus, I used two zipties on the pic rail segment that I sawed in half with a zawzall..... Very gunsmith-y-ish.

I have a bunch of them -- here are a couple.

Nelson Custom Guns .22 conversion upper on a Springfield Range Officer frame, with a Burris Fastfire III sight mounted:


Ruger Bisley Single Six, with grips from Arizona Custom:

@Armored farmer, Oh no sir, I was certainly not questioning your fine smithing skills. It just took me back to my youth with my best friend. Try to imagine precision shooting with 5 pounds of mag lite on your barrel.

On the bright side I ended up marrying his sister so it's all good.

My current favorite 22LR, M617.

Wow!! Some really nice guns represented here. Some I wasn't aware of.

Here's a couple not shown yet. Any excuse to post a pic.

Walther TPH.


The original, a Walther PP and the Walther inspired Daewoo DP52.


Astra Constable.

I have two single sixes and am shopping for a third stainless 6½ incher.
This is my woods gun. My plinker. To me, its what a .22 revolver should be. The magnum cylinder is a bonus. Like having another gun.

My .22 Handguns include
Charter arms Explorer II
