BETH · 03-09-2010, 11:55 PM

FYIMO are those old guns did grips come with them? really nice as soon as i get my 38 s&w i will put pictures up

lentz · 03-12-2010, 08:31 PM

I shoot and own nothing but .22. Even my concealed carry is .22.And I only use western style. Can't hit the barn from the insde wth anything else.

RickN · 03-12-2010, 08:39 PM

My only 22 revolver is a Hawes Western Six Shooter.

OldPilgrim · 03-24-2010, 02:35 PM

SW 17-6

SW K22

Ruger SingleSix flatgate

Ruger Super Single Six .22lr/..22mag

High Standard Double Nine

I like shooting them all but the 17-6 just shoots the best.

red14 · 03-24-2010, 03:01 PM

Those grips are very unique on the 17-6. Are they molded special?

OldPilgrim · 03-24-2010, 04:03 PM

nope, they're not 'molded', they're wood. they were a standard item on that model. I don't think they were available for any other gun but I could be mistaken.

SuperDuty · 03-25-2010, 07:08 PM

I have a S&W Model 18 as well, but I'd like to get a Model 17-6 someday.

omalon · 04-02-2010, 07:10 PM

I started out with a High Standard Double Nine in 1956 at age 14, but when I went to college my mother gave the gun to my uncle. The Double Nine was a great gun for learning how to shoot revovlers. Now I have a Ruger Super Single Six which goes to the range every time.

polizei · 04-08-2010, 08:12 PM

I have a wonderful S&W Model 17 in six inch that is probably the most accurate revolver I have. I keep it in the kitchen so I can shoot rabbits in the backyard with CB caps. This keeps the noise level down to an acceptable level!

Be still my heart.....Ilove it

steve666 · 04-09-2010, 07:57 AM

Like the OP, my Rossi 4" goes with me every trip to the range and sometimes my Ruger Single Six.

http://www.apt401.com/s6.jpg
usually along with a .22 auto, my Walther P22, Browning Buckmark, or High Standard Supermatic Trophy.

BobMcG · 04-09-2010, 09:17 PM

Used to be able to say yes but no longer and not for some time now. I miss them and have been thinking about getting another one lately. And now, you guys have me really wanting another! I sold off my 18 and then my 17 a few years ago and could kick myself now.... but maybe I'll just have to do some shopping around and remedy the situation.

This post is a good excuse... er, inspiration.

Pixcutter · 04-13-2010, 08:49 PM

I too have a 17-4 in 6" I only wish I was as good a shot as the gun would be with a better shooter. My daughter-in-law wants it but I'll never let it go!

In passing, does anyone make a speed loader for it? I'd line to compete in the Ruger Rimfire challenge, but don't want to buy another .22 handgun right now.

FW! · 04-13-2010, 09:20 PM

I have a 3 screw Ruger Single six with the long bbl & a S & W 17, scoped with an 8 3/8 bbl. Great squirrel gun.

Trigger · 04-13-2010, 09:47 PM

We love shooting our MKIII and also just purchased a new Single Six.

.22LR is so much fun (and cheap) to shoot we are already lining up our next several purchases.

Next is the NAA mini .22 revolver!

XR750 · 06-18-2010, 05:13 AM

I have a K22 Masterpiece mod#? made before they gave them mod # a great piece that allways shot straight and never failed to go bang since I've owned it.
XR750

ahpeih · 06-19-2010, 12:31 AM

Heritage Rough Rider, both .22 and .22 mag cylinders, accurate and cheap fun. Used to have a Ruger Mk I, but I waste less ammo with the revolver.

wkd · 01-22-2011, 01:26 PM

I shoot a pair of 17's 6 and 83/8 same in 48. All 4 are extremely accurate and the Mod 48 's are good coyote killers.

722.222 · 01-22-2011, 09:34 PM

I have a H&R Sportsman Doubleaction that shoots great and I carry it far more often than my Browning Buckmark. In fact I thinking of selling my big bore autos and buyng revolvers back. They are simple and I plainly like'm.

johnlives4christ · 01-22-2011, 10:04 PM

heres my preferred 22

K75RT · 01-23-2011, 07:23 AM

I probably shoot my .22 caliber rimfires more than any other of my pistols and revolvers..
An old friend of mine gave me this H&R 922

I inherited this H&R 923

I got this at an auction H&R Victor a seven shot revolver in nice shape

I am including this pic to show the size difference of the Victor

The old revolvers are fun to shoot and very accurate. I have some newer revolvers that I will have to get pics of...

K75RT · 01-23-2011, 09:43 AM

This is my Taurus M96 it's a 6-shot and no longer made, this one is well made and it shoots great.

My Taurus M94 9-shot

An old Spanish Ruby Extra

and a Comanche .22 I've never shot as of yet..

GunHugger · 01-23-2011, 10:25 AM

Lots of nice 22 revolvers posted here.

I also own a Ruger Single Six

But, this Colt New Frontier is my favorite.

crazylare · 03-19-2011, 07:08 PM

I too really enjoy a good round of shooting fun with my 22cal revolvers. I currently have a model 95B Taurus 9 shot, a Western Auto Revelation mod. 76 9 shot, a High Standard double nine 9 shot, 2- H&R 929 9 shot, a Western Ranger 6 shooter, an old than the hills Herbert Schmidt cowboy action 6 shooter. and several 22 cal auto's. But the most accurate is the Taurus. I usually take a different one out to shoot every time I go out to the woods. I have a shooting course outback that is a hoot... and I get some excersize at the same time...
But by and by the 22 cal guns are the best way to go... the big bore guns make a bigger bang and are fun to shoot once in awhile but to shoot like I do, mostly every day wouldn't even be practical even if I reloaded... I usually go through about 1000 rounds a week... no dust settles on my guns.
