I've been waffling back and forth between either a Ruger Shopkeeper .22LR or a Single Nine .22WMR for a while. I love the look and feel of birds-head grips, but I like the bigger boom and MUCH better sights of the S9. (Also, I find the engraving on the Shopkeeper busy and gaudy.)
But I've held off not only because I can't decide, but also because, frankly, I'm not sure I really want to spend money on another rimfire gun. I'd love a little less less punch than my Taurus TCP .380 or Ruger LCR .38SPL (I have chronic tendonitis in my right wrist), but I really would prefer centerfire, and something a little less marginal than .22WMR for unscheduled social interactions.
I happened to be over at Bud's Guns' website, and bingo! There it is: a used Single Six in .32H&R Mag with birds-head grip. Yes! Just what I want! The bad news? SOLD. Well, crap.
Oh well... at least I now know what I'm looking for — I just wonder how long it will be before I find another one for sale.
