Looking for a .22 pistol

Re: Looking for a .22 pistol
Honestly, I can't forsee you getting anything what won't fall apart and fires well for under $100.
You can look for a .22 revolver and that will normally run you for $150-$200 or so.
Personally, for the novice shooter, especially one afraid of guns, I recommend the Ruger MkII. They can be had for $150-$300 used.
Hell, I recommend that gun to anyone who wants to learn and practice their fundamentals, no matter what their skill level.

I wanted the Walther p22 for her, but when i had the 250 it cost at the show, it had been with in the 30 days for me to buy another handgun if i had the cash, that'd be the gun id get. I am hoping she will just get over the fear of shooting and use my .45 its a Glock 30, and really the Recoil isn't bad at all, i guess its just the initial fear /shrug.
Right now all i have to spare on a frivilous item is 100, if i get some extra pocket change, ill look for something nicer like the ruger or p22

Re: Looking for a .22 pistol
I was just going to recommend the Walther P22... My roommate has one and it's a slick shooting little .22LR. Think of it as a miniature P99. If I were you, I'd wait until you can come up with a little more money so you can afford a quality weapon. As Tim said, the Ruger MkII is a nice weapon too. But... who knows, maybe someone will post up something they're trying to part with.
Anywho thanks for the responses and info/comments, ill be looking for about a week, if not ill save my pennies and wait for the gunshow .

Re: Looking for a .22 pistol
if you get a p22, just remember to shoot mini mags or stingers out of it, otherwise i havent found much that will cycle through either of mine. It will feed most ammo with the can on it though.
