The weakest handgun I own is a .38 special, with a preference towards N-frame S&W revolvers. That being said, I've only shot a .22 once when I had my first pistol class, and it belonged to the range.
I'm at a point where I want to get a .22 for myself, and narrowed it down to the choices in the poll. Since this will be a plinking gun and not for serious target shooting, I went for eye candy and picked the "non-ugly" .22's.
Hey, nuthin' wrong with being superficial!
I included the Beretta 92FS conversion only because I may consider getting a 9mm Beretta anyway.
I consider all these things important:
Accuracy
Build quality
Ease of disassembly & cleaning
Does this model need frequent repairs
So based on all available parameters, which is the best? I will also get a S&W .22 revolver eventually, like a K-22, so this will fulfill my semi-auto need.

PS. I read the other .22 thread going on but people were putting in their 2 cents for top-of-the-line .22's for over $1000. I wanted to keep this thread in the realms of reality (my reality, anyway!)
