I like 22's

[anoblefox]

Still the cheapest thing to shoot, especially now days. Show me yours, with comments!

 

[KalamazooKid]

K22’s came out to play last weekend ….

Their shorty little bro (model 18) ……

And some purdy M41’s …..

 

[gfors]

22's are a hoot to shoot!
A 4 screw .22 Jet and a Model 18 that get shot, indoors only!

The 617 is way heavier than need be, but it's a good trainer for the 686-6.

Speaking of trainers, this 18-3 taught quite a few Colorado State Patrol cadets the basics of double-action hand-gunning. The High Standard is the most accurate hand gun I've ever shot. These last 2 go on almost every range trip, indoors, outdoors, rain, dust storm...like a Timex, take a licking and keep on ticking.

Other than the stocks being brutalized by some goon this is a
July 1911-shipped Heavy Frame Target. I've had the upper side
plate screw replaced and its push-off problem cured. Neat little I-frame .22.

My other one is a postwar K-22 with a 4-digit serial number.

Too much fun, although the country song says there's no such athing.

My one and only S&W,but it is a 22.






I like my .500” wide SMOOTH TT



I do have other 22s. Different make

 

[diecidecimi]

love .22

Here my .22s
Then, an intruder .22 Fifty-fifty: only mounting the spare cylinder

 

[Babysitr]

a lot of us have several .22's....for me the K22 just may be the perfect revolver...makes an old man smile!

.22 rimfire, the best handgun cartridge ever invented.
Ok, maybe a little exaggerated, but not much. A inexpensive, light recoiling just fun cartridge for the whole family. I only have 4 1/2 .22 handguns at the moment. The half being a Kimber conversion on my Colt 1911.

 

[Green Frog]

Try as I might, I can’t seem to build up my supply of CF cartridges but so deeply, either by purchase of factory ammo or reloading or both. OTOH, I was able pre-COVID to stop by my LGS or big box store and buy the equivalent of a case or more of CF in 22 LR for $50 or less... which I did! And fairly often!

Soooo, if I have a random opportunity to visit the range, the likelihood is that I’ll have one or more 22s in my kit, usually a K22 and/or a High Standard. I love my 9mms, 32s, 38s and all the others, but for a carpe diem range experience, the little rimfires get the nod!

[PALADIN85020]

For revolvers, these three are my mainstays, two 17s and an 18.



I have a lot of .22 pistols, but this one continues to ring my chimes - a 41, of course!



I also have many .22 rifles, but this Winchester Model 75 sporter, vintage of 1956, is the most accurate hands down.



...and there are some that defy categorization!

I'm a big fan of 22lr revolvers. Here's my 1939 K-22 Outdoorsman. This gun, IMO, is the .22 version of the Registered Magnum. Absolutely impeccable in every aspect of the gun makers art. My others are a 1953 K-22 Combat Masterpiece, a 17-2, and a Colt Officers Model Special from 1949. The Colt is the most accurate revolver I have, in any caliber. It's the top one, shown with its .38 caliber sibling.

 

[Retired W4]

Where is the like button for the whole thread?

 

[Eric300]

It seems that I shoot my rimfires way more than any other caliber. One of these days I'll get a .22 revolver. In the meantime I'll shoot my semi-autos, and bolt actions.

[PaulDoc]

My 1939 outdoorsman that was sent to a police dept. Letter should arrive soon. And my 1961 48-0.

 

[GSP Fan]

I just picked up a second generation Colt Woodsman. The outside is rough shows lots of honest wear. A avid bear hunter carried it often. The mechanics are good as is the bore.
On the revolver side a nice M48 is on it's way here. It has TTT just like a K22 I have so they will make a good pair.

 

[Majer]

My 1948 K-22

 

[sophie]

I like 22"s also and here are a few. It's been so long since I've posted a picture I hope these work. Several model 18's, a 1956 pre model 17, an 8 3/8" model 17 with 4X Leopold EER, and if these work I will post a few more photos when I figure out where they are at. I do like the .22 caliber and not just S&W's. I have several S&W model 63's and a few snubbies. Ruger Single Sixes and Bearcat and High Standard. Love em.

 

[Howardeye]

Excellent display of savory taste from everyone!

 

[sophie]

Here are a few more 22's and my photos are so scattered that I am lucky to find these. I mostly use an iPad these last 5 years and when I get on my desktop I seem to be lost as where to find my files.

Two model 63's and a nickel 34-1 and a model 17 non pinned barrel.

 

[Vidd]

Love 22s

Only have one s&w never shot it. 3rd model perfected with the Pope Barrel.but would like a k22 from 1959

 

[Rubone]

That hurts my heart...a very sad thing to never have a chance to prove it's mettle. It wouldn't be like that in my world., but then money means little to me. As long as I can eat I'm OK...

 

[GM4spd]

The reason I only own ONE S&W 22,see post #6.

 

[paplinker]

Got a pair of red post K 22s

Both were special ordered.

The nickle one is 4 screw shipped to a S&W sales rep.

The matte blue one is a three digit gun shipped to a retired WWI Officer who was able to order this front sight roughly 5 years before its offered in catalogs.

 

[Baltimoreed11754]

Some Woodsmans.
