DA revolvers - The Firearms Forum

Does anyone make a DA revolver in .22LR that comes with a .22Mag cylender? I like the Ruger single six, but want the extra fire power provided by the DA.

Carver, I think H&R made some "Convertible" models that were DA and had the extra 22 mag cylinder. I'm trying to visualize them and I see a revolver that has a lot of single action looks but is a DA. Check out 649, 686 & 976. I could be way off base here too. Can find a picture right now.

Yeah, I don't think anyone makes them anymore. I guess I'm a dinosaur! I like .44spcl. in a 4" barrel too! Try finding one of them, or the ammo for it!

My local GS has an H&R 676 with both cylinders, belt and holster for sale. Looks to be in pretty nice condition. Barrel length is 5.5" I think. Don't know the size of the belt.
