So I’m undecided what to get. I like the SR22, M&P22 compact but also the Ruger mk4 is an option as well. It’s primarily gonna be a plunked but I’ll be shooting squirrels and stuff in my yard. I’m waiting for a silencerco spectre 2 that I should see around Sept. give me some opinions

You'll get a lot of opinions, however I've been shooting Ruger Mks for decades, and you won't find a better plinking pistol anywhere. I haven't had a Mk 4 (yet) but I do remember reading that there were some issues with it. The others are bullet proof, no pun intended.

I'm in the same boat. My stamp should come in sometime around November/December.

I have it narrowed down to the Mark IV or the S&W Victory.

So my other option is get a barrel for my Browning buck mark. But why do that when I can buy another gun???!!!

I have the M&P22 and while I like it, it's super finicky with ammo when I have my can attached - not so much without in its base configuration. That said I'm actually looking at picking up a MK4 for reliability purposes. I liked the fact that the M&P had a similar feel to the Glocks that I typically shoot.

You can't go wrong with either one of these.

The fixed the issues. So newer models sold after the end of 2017 won't have them and Ruger has recalled and fixed those that were sent back.

I shoot my M&P suppressed quite a bit; very good option.

Disclaimer - I'm a Ruger fan and collector. I would go with a threaded MkIV or 22/45 Lite. In my experiences both will shoot just about any ammo you put through it however, you will still want to try different types and see which gives the best accuracy. That said, I know people who have S&W Victorys or the Brownings and they love them.
