Hey folks -
Every time I visit the range, I'm reminded just how much I love the .22LR cartridge. I'm a shooter on a budget, and whether I'm shooting by myself, or with my girl, or teaching friends to shoot, I just can't beat a brick of bulk pack .22 for a great trip to the range.
Awhile back, I was going to fill out the forms to get myself an 03 FFL, and start collecting more guns. Part of the reason that I haven't already, is simply because I'm hooked on rimfire shooting.
Which brings me to my question - What, if any, handguns are on the list of C&R eligible handguns (revolver and semi-auto) that are chambered for the .22LR cartridge? I don't know much about C&R guns, outside of the most common ones (Mosins, Maks, CZ-52's, TT-33's, etc) which are all centerfire. I've simply never heard of any rimfire offerings.
Any help is appreciated. I'm looking for descriptions, pictures, availability (and sources), basically anything ya'll can tell me about what might be out there for me to get.
IMPORTANT - I would like to ask that this thread not veer into other types/calibers of handguns, unless it is in regards to a centerfire pistol that can be converted to .22LR. I'm aware that there are some very nice, very inexpensive centerfire caliber C&R eligible firearms out there, but for now, I'd like to keep the focus on .22LR.
Thanks!
