1873 SAA style .22's

[Armor Snail]

Looking for a SA revolver in .22lr. There are quite a few options out there. Needs to be under $200.

Will be used to teach my nefew's and son(eventually, he's only 3) how to shoot handguns.

I see Puma, Heritage, Chiappa, Cimarron.
Anyone have any of these? Any that I'm overlooking? Again it must be SA, under $200. Having an extra 22wm cylinder is not a factor for me.

Thoughts? Opinions?

I had a Heritage Rough Rider, 6.5 in. bbl., came with 2 cylinders, a 22lr. and 22 magnum, great gun, fun to shoot with the magnum rounds, i will buy another and don't listen to the bullshit about them being pot metal, they are what they are, a good low cost ssa 22 caliber hand gun, and IF you insist on all steel construction, well they make them too, you just have to spend a little more money for one.

www.gunslingerforum.com, all things Heritage Rough Rider.

ENJOY.

I picked up a Ruger single six for $160 at the LGS. Probably the best and most bullet proof single action on the market in 22. I have since tossed on a 2.5 fixed power scope for squirrel duty. Came with both cylinders. And of course pics or it didn't happen, right.

My wife bought the heritage rough rider .22lr, with the 6 inch barrel. It's a good gun for teaching someone the basics, little recoil, lots of fun. It turned my wife over to our side. It was only $175 new at gander mountain too, it's worth it IMO.

unless you buy used, I don't think you'll find anything under $200 except the Heritage revolvers.
