Opinions on the S&W 43c .22LR please

Took it to the range yesterday and ran about 100 rds thru it -- perfect -- no problems. I reckon it is fixed. Thanks for all the suggestions.

Got it fixed I think. Gunsmith found a metal bur in it that he thinks was the problem. Seems okay now. Will know for sure next week when I go to the range . Thanks for all the suggestions.

Thanks, will check ejector rod.

Took my new S&W 63 to the range and shot about 20 rounds and all of a sudden the cylinder stuck , trigger wouldn't pull, and I couldn't even cock the hammer. With some effort I got cylinder to open and it fired 8 rounds. Reloaded and it locked up again. Got it open again, emptied it, reloaded...

Lots'a good answers. am doing a lot of looking and will check out some of the above advisories. I'm in no hurry. Forgot to mention, she is 82 and not the most athletic lady around. Any gun she tries will have to have a light trigger pull and very low recoil at first.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I need suggestions for a .22 cal. revolver for my wife to try. I got her a Ruger lcr 'bout a year ago and she only shot it a time or two and lost interest. Now she is interested and tried it again but she says it...

Thanks to all.

Anyone on here use a Sneaky Pete holster for a S&W model 642 Airweight? If so, how do you like it?

New Agent I just looked at a New Agent at my dealer's a 'coupla hours ago and it had sights on it. I really liked it but at nearly $1100.00 I can't afford it right now.

Just ordered a Mika round btm so I am looking forward to see if it is as good as everyone has said.
