What 22LR Pistol do you plink with?

Gunflint1 · Nov 5, 2022

The Aces are out there, but the price. Seen an early nice one at a Texas gun show last month.. He wanted $5,000. Thats what I call sticker shock. But,you can ask whatever you want, but will you sell it? There is one on Collectors Firearms for $5,500. I figure for $5500 if it doesn't let the dog out, do some laundry, & clean house it ain't stayin here.

A bit surprised no one's mentioned a couple of my favorites :
Best = S&W mod.41.. Revolver= S&W 617 Also have a couple of Ruger MkII's.. shot them a lot before getting the S&W's. Had a 5" bull barrel & a 6 7/8" taper barrel..both Target models. Traded the 5" to an old friend that had bought a SP ? or GP ? Ruger SS .22 revolver...& didn't like it. He really liked shooting my 5" and could shoot it much better. As the revolver was a much more expensive gun, i gave him an extra $100.00 with my MkII ,thinking I'd sell it. Hasn't happened yet.

my mod.41 came with a 7' barrel..and a bunch of fact. accessories. i found it on consignment @ LGS..near my wife's workplace. I wanted a 5' barrel for it , contacted S&W to order one. Took almost 1.5 yrs. to get it..after placxing my order, starting hearing every excuse you could imagine why it was taking so long for it to ship.
Was told the machiney was being moved from 1 factory to another, among other excuses...

Forgot to mention another favorite .22 a Dan Wesson w/ 6" barrel ( also have a 4" barrel & shroud for it.)

Gunflint1 · Nov 7, 2022

I like those. Had a chance to buy one once, reasonable. Not reasonable anymore. Very nice.

Unfortunately, NOTHING seems reasonable anymore. I pray the elections tomorrow make a difference in the long run. Short term, if the rinos,& dems, don't manage to cheat us all out of a win, I guarantee the b*stards will do every d*mn thing they can, to pass as many BS laws, and bills between tomorrow, and January,, when they are deposed, as they are physically able to do. They'll probably cancel their break, just to screw with us. Not to mention everything they have managed to do to the economy, and the country, since January of 2020!

If the Dems win this one, we're toast. Then for sure the SWHTF. MAGA.

Sadly Bob, your right on the money. They will try anything & everything they can to retain power. And l mean anything.

Yes they will, and yet people keep voting for the same clowns over, and over again! The very definition of insanity. Sadly neither side cares about ANYTHING other than power, and money. I got news for those losers....Ya CAN'T take it with you! Our Government is a cesspool, and has been for eons. Unfortunately for everyone, I see absolutely no end in sight. I know the proverbial ray of sunshine, sorry but the truth is what it is.

Only thing we can do is remove the Left Clowns First. Then start on the Right. My Father-in-law used to say vote for the one that is the lesser of the two evils. Might add my firearms have two enemies, Rust and Politicians. Keep in mind, surrender is not an option for us.

HooDoo Man · Nov 7, 2022

My closing statement for the day on this matter. I voted and I'm ready.

Absolutely is not an option!

Wonder if there is a way one can confirm your vote? Number one, making sure it was counted, Number two making sure it was who you voted for???

#1
In Florida we make out a paper ballot. When you are done, you bring the ballot to the tabulator and feed it into it. The tabulator will sound off and the counter will change up one.

#2
You have to have a little faith in the system or otherwise why would you even bother to vote at all.

Gunflint1 · Nov 8, 2022

I like old school paper ballots...Electronic ones can, & will be manipulated. But there has to be checks and balances to keep it honest. Always question that's a Patriots job.
