    Exclamation IS THIS GOOD? Advice asap!

    Hey there!

    I own a taurus .45 and i love it, but im looking to get a .22lr pistol so that i dont go broke at the range. Ive found this, and to my knowledge it seems to get pretty good reviews, so:

    1.) Whats your opinion on the Smith and Wesson 22A Bull Barrel?

    2.) I found new ones for 229.99, is that a pretty good deal?

    The price seems pretty reasonable, but i was wondering if someone knows if there are cheaper ones somewhere?

    I want to get one today so please let me know your opinions asap if possible!

    I've got a 22A and I like it. I wish I would have gotten the fiber optic sites but I'm still happy with it.

    I like mine.

    They do, however, use a plastic recoil buffer that needs changed out on occasion. You can do some smoothing to help them last a lot longer.

    Mine also had some wimpy extraction at times and that was also fixed by some filing of the extractor face. I now throw empties 10 yards with CCI Stingers.

    Overall, a very accurate gun.

    That is about average, I think...
    I have a 22A, no bull barrel though. Lycan hit all of the major points. Great little pistol. They definately need to be cleaned thoroughly... I find that if I dont clean it meticulously, I have problems, usually failure to feed and eject properly.

    I have my rifle. Do you?

    Look into a Ruger MKIII 22/45. It's about the same price. Mine eats anything I put into it. I paid $237 for mine brand new.

    Get the .99 cent Crispy Chicken sandwich at Wendy's. It is by far the best deal going.
