M&P .22 PISTOL

Need advise

Hey guys I'm new to guns and was hoping you guys could help find a good hangun just for shooting targets
I'm lookn at the .22 caliber guns
Thanks
 
For plinking you could use any Walther .22, or any Ruger Mark series. Some of the old standards and Mark 1's can be had for $200 or less. Buckmarks are good too. Figure $150 - $400
If you want high end the S&W 41 is good, so is the old High Standard. Figure between $500 - $1,000
Really really high end guns? I haven't shot but have seen .22 pistols for $3,000 to $4,000. :eek:
 
S&W M & P .22lr

Hey! Wait a minute. Isn't this thread for the M&P? Patience, patience, my friends. It will be shipped shortly. It will be good. You will love it. At least I hope so.
 
I just picked up the GSG 1911 .22 at the gun show last weekend. I haven't had a chance to put any rounds down range yet but I really like the look and feel of this pistol. Lot's of reviews and videos on the net.
 
I love my berretta neos 22 it works like a buckmark shoots great I have a bushnell red dot on it. I have the delux model 7.5" barrel so it is a real tack driver for a 22
 
Getting back to the M&P 22, the last word I heard, we looking at June or July for delivery.

Already have one reserved at my LGS.

There are many gun makers out there and some of them are not s&w it is ok to talk about other guns.:p
 
M & P 22lr

I was at the NRA show in Pittsburgh this weekend. Spoke to the main representative from S & W and was told that the gun should ship in September but they may come in a little earlier. Check with your LGS in August for more details. I was told there will be plenty shipped from Germany so there shouldn't be a shortage. I can't wait (even though I have waited this long). BTW, it looked and felt like a nice pistol.
 
Rule of thumb… buy when it's available… stock is always sold out in a few weeks.

I ended up buying the new Ruger 22/45 (10146) it's very nice… and will hold me over as I wait…
 
I checked one out at the NRA Convention also. Felt just like a M&P9 FS with the medium back strap. I will certainly buy one. Bill
 
It seems to say, single action, if you can find any info at all. Anyone able to confirm or deny? I have a Ruger MkII, and a Model 18, only way I need another .22 is if it is DAO for the practice.
 
I am torn now between this M&P22 and a Ruger Mark3 22/45 (street price $250).

Do I want cold hard steel or new technology? It will be used for range practice mainly.
 
Any one know how easy it is to clean M&P22's?
I have not own an M&P before.

One issue with RRuger Mk3 that I have read is the extra efforts needed to clean it.
 
I have both a Ruger Mark III and an M&P 9mm. The Ruger is a pain to clean and the only way I can do it is to watch Youtube videos to get the hang of it. It becomes simpler the more you do it but it still is fairly difficult. If the S&W .22lr is like their 9mm (and it seems to be), it is fairly easy to clean, just like most semi-automatic 9mms. I won't know for sure until I get my hands on one, but that's my guess. We'll see.
 
What about the S&W Model 22A?
ANyone used that one and compared it to the Ruger Mk3?

Product: Model 22A

I have a 22A, Beretta Neos, Browning Buckmark and a Browning Challenger and they are all easy to take down and reassemble. Had a Ruger and sold it after I took it apart to clean it. It was a real pain to reassemble.
 
i have a 22a and love it. its a little cheap feeling compared to my buckmark but for the money spent on the gun and the several thousand rounds my family and i have put through with nary a hiccup it was prob. one of the best gun purchases i ever made.
