NOPEjust look at the groups he gets.

This is a High Road thread from a few years back where a couple of people talk about the steel barrel inside a shroud, with the shroud coming off. One person mentions you can't tell it's two piece until it comes off.Elitism??? We're talking about a sub-$200 gun.
The barrel is ribbed (micro-threaded) and covered in glue, then pressed into the frame. Not a two piece barrel, as far as I know.
My comment has meaning, you just missed it. The point is that single action 22’s are excessively slow to load and unload. Therefore they are more boring to shoot than autoloaders or revolvers with swing-out cylinders. The only 22 handgun more tedious to shoot than a SA revolver is a single shot or a derringer.
Of course you are welcome to disagree if individually punching out those skinny little empties is your idea of fun.
Depends on how you look at it. I can reload one in about 10secs and burn up a 500rd bulk pack in just a couple hours.Great, another Ruger 22 that is slow to load and unload. Yawn.
i don't think he gets the joy of the single actions.Depends on how you look at it. I can reload one in about 10secs and burn up a 500rd bulk pack in just a couple hours.
Magazines don't load themselves.
I take exception to the phrase "hog trough sights".

The Gunblast review states the grip frame is aluminum. So I guess the worry of it being Zemak can be put to rest.
Stumpy you will have to take that up with Cajunbass. He said it first. And I liked it.
Nope.I didn't miss a thing. Your original comment was: "Great, another RUGER .22 that is slow to load and unload."
Your comment was a criticism of Ruger specifically, and not single action revolvers in general.
As such it was a meaningless remark, since Ruger is only one of many makers of single action revolvers that use the same old Colt system of loading and unloading.
Now the 22 Peacemaker with a steel frame was a different animal.
It appears that you don’t like single action 22 revolvers. So, why even post in a topic about them?My comment has meaning, you just missed it.

I posted in the thread to remind people that there are other options. I understand some people like them, but there are undoubtedly people reading the thread who have never shot a 22 SA.

But I do want to thank you for letting us know that single action 22’s are excessively slow to load and unload. I don’t think we would have ever figured that out on our own.
I started both of my boys off with my Ruger Single Six. After learning the basics I let them shoot the Ruger MKII and a 1911 with a Kimber 22lr convention.
They enjoyed shooting the autos but always went back to the Single Six. When asked why they said it was more fun to shoot.
Really? You think that people that read gun forums are that dumb?I posted in the thread to remind people that there are other options.

I’m doing a public service.

I sure am glad I didn't have anyone to spoil the fun at 12yrs old, when I bought my first one. I might've let someone else's lame opinion taint mine.I posted in the thread to remind people that there are other options.

PS, a single action .22 can be reloaded faster than a double action, unless you're using speedloaders.
PSS, Time yourself the next time you load a .22 magazine. Perception is a funny thing.
Again, I ask the question. If you don’t like single action revolvers, why are you posting in a topic about then. I have never known you to be a Troll, but that’s what it looks like you are doing.It’s one thing to know a thing intellectually, another thing altogether to realize it viscerally.
Time how long it takes you to unload an empty magazine. I timed myself at 0.0 seconds.
Look, I understand that you seem to like single action 22 revolvers. Fine, but try to imagine a world in which others disagree. Because they do.
