High quality .22 pistol full size semi-auto
I don't have any high quality .22 semi-auto pistol yet.
Looking to order one this week.
Which one do you recommend ( under $1000 ) ?
I'm also looking for semi-auto .22 rifle as well.

Re: High quality .22 pistol full size semi-auto
Do you consider a Ruger mark II (or III) high quality? Mine always goes bang and is more accurate than I am shooting offhand at 25 yards. I would often bring it out with a friend and shoot a brick on numerous occasions. Must have shot 20,000+ rounds and it is still ticking away with no problems.......
I personally prefer the older Mark II's with a heavy barrel.

I'm partial to the new S&W Victory which will be around $400.00 and already has a large amount of higher end match grade after market products out there.

When you see guys like .22 plinkster making 100 yard plus trick shots with a 90 year old Colt Woodsmen or a $250.00. M&P .22lr it kind of kills the need for a $1000.00 pistol that shoots ammo that costs .06 per round.
Just my .02

Re: High quality .22 pistol full size semi-auto
Any Ruger Mk I or II (I have two of each with the 6.5" tapered barrel in the Mk I and the 5 7/8th bull barrels in the Mk II). The Mk Is are 55 years old, the Mk IIs, 30 plus. Cannot be beaten for swallowing anything any time. I also have a 40 yr old M41 (last of those with chamber indicators) and a CT-made High Standard. Any of these will work for you. From ~$300 for the Rugers, ~$600 for the HS and around $1K for the M41. I would recommend any of the older ones and ignore the newer ones. Extremely well made in times when "plastic = bakelite" and will effectively never wear out. Dave_n

Re: High quality .22 pistol full size semi-auto
+1 on the Victory.
The stock trigger is almost as nice as the Volquartsen one I put in my Mark III 22/45, the stock sights are great IMO (most of my shooting is on my Glocks with 3 dot NS) and it's simple to take down the Victory, unlike my Ruger.
I'll be getting one for sure someday.

Re: High quality .22 pistol full size semi-auto
Not sure if you are looking for something like this, but I had a M&P22 full size pistol and it was awesome. Reliable and very accurate out of the box.

Re: High quality .22 pistol full size semi-auto
S&W Model 41 - FYI, use standard velocity only.
Browning Medalist - if you look, you should be able to find a decent one for under $1,000.Honey, sell my guns for what they're worth and not what I told you I paid for them.
