Here is the deal
I have a year to acquire the right gun for my daughter's graduation gift.
It would be great if I could limit it to a thousand dollars but that is not required and it can include gunsmithing.
She already has a blue pinned 4 inch Smith & Wesson Model 19.
Before you accuse me of being a doting father...she works. Buys her own "non essential" items (like shoes). Takes honors classes and has a 4.42 GPA at an outstanding parochial school. Does her own laundry, helps with other chores. She asked me if we could put flags on veterans graves this Memorial Day. The other day I asked her mom what she was doing and she said "cleaning the kitchen and singing".
She is very special and has earned a pretty cool gift.
As she has a great 357 I am thinking about 22 long rifle revolver. Something that she can plink with for years. Teach her kids to shoot with.
She loves my Colt revolvers. (Detective Special 3rd release, Diamondback 2.5 and Python 4 inch which she will inherit so none of those are appropriate)
I am torn between a Diamondback revolver 22lr or something like an Officer's Target Model in 22.
If I go with the latter I can do a trigger job or a small tasteful engraving.
Brainstorming time.
Don't limit yourself to the 22.
Throw me all of your crazy ideas.
