I just bought this for my wife's first pistol.
She picked the color.
Show off you double deuce pistols /k/!
Bought mine a little revolver, pink cross of course.
She found these way more instinctive I cannot desagree. Easier to manipulate for a girl.

Girlfriends' guns thread? Been eyeing an M&P Shield for the girlfriend to CC, she said she really liked it when she held it.
Problem was, the trigger had a bitch of a break on it. It was so bad, I couldn't help but jerk the gun.
I've read about them randomly having heavy triggers with them being acceptable for the most part. Is this true?
>>28037390
I got this for my girl
>>28037301
this is my old neighbor's. He let me borrow it for a weekend to clean and take plinking. Its a lot of fun, i almost convinced my father to get one as a trainer gun for when we take noguns shooting
>>28037415
nice anon, light trigger, and not wussing out with "oh she's too weak to work a slide and/or airheaded to deal with a manual safety"
>>28037488
Showed her a few ways to work the slide. Safety isn't an issue. Some snap caps make for quality bedroom training
>>28037301
That's my carry pistol, not that color though.
I'm a 6'2" 185lb man.
Great little gun.
>>28037515
Yeah, I was saying I like your choice, I think it's condescending to give your grill a "simpler" gun as is the prevailing wisdom
>>28037430
A Mark II stainless? Damn I'm jealous.
>>28037557
I'm not that guy but I totally agree with you. I hate seeing guys throw a .38 jframe snubby at their girls cause "it's so easy." Makes me cringe every time.
>>28037634
Hell, I shot a family friend's wife's gun, some 38 hammerless
Motherfucker hurt my hands to shoot, my .357sig P226 is like taking a nap on a feather pillow compared to that damn thing
Been hoping for a thread like this.
Decided to get a cary pistol. And yes, i know, reliability of rimfire is sometimes dicy. It fits my lifestyle and the chances of me having to defend are pretty astronomical.
I want to cc either a gsg 1911, or one of the chiappa's.
Which oversized pea shooter would you choose? If niether, what would you take in its place?
>>28037748
>reliability of rimfire is sometimes dicy
Not anymore. High quality .22LR is just as reliable as any other ammunition.
IMO there's only two .22 pistols suitable for CC, that's the LCR22 and the SR22.
>>28037807
Do you live in squirrel ghetto or something?
>>28037819
Do you really want me to start posting all the caliber data for first stop shot and rounds to incapacitate data?
C'mon man, 22LR is a perfect defensive carry caliber against unarmored targets.
Don't be a faggot.
>>28037868
>perfect
I don't think any reasonable person would agree with that.
>>28037868
>Hurr .22lr kills like 1.1% as many people as everything else!
>durr I'm intentionally obfuscating the fact that 3000x as many people are shot with .22lr!
>>28037807
Good to know, i'll relegate that to fudd lore then.
The revolver is well thought out. But trying to go for slim.
Will read up on the SR22.
But a casual glance puts it 200 more then the elcheapo 1911's.
Appreciate it and will read.
>>28037819
U don know how hard these streets get mang. Deeze nuts are mine foker.
But no. I drive everywhere and keep a shotgun under the back seat. A nice 22 i can stick in a holster and go walking with is all i need.
A gun for every purpose and man.
>>28037878
That's because most people aren't actually reasonable.
Name the reasons you think .22LR isn't a perfect CC caliber that don't involve rimfire reliability and/or muh stoppan powah.
>>28037415
My father bought one of these for my stepmother. Hopefully she gets a CC license soon, she had one before.
>>28037929
You mean, the two most important factors in a carry round?
I'll bite: potential for rimlock and feeding errors in semi-auto magazines
>>28037938
>You mean, the two most important factors in a carry round?
Right, because 1.) modern quality rimfire is as reliable as any centerfire and b.) stoppan powah is a complete and utter myth that has been disproven again and again and again with real world data.
>potential for rimlock and feeding errors in semi-auto magazines
Literally never happened to me over thousands of rounds of .22LR over the past 2 years I've owned my SR22.
And here's something else to consider:
Try mag dumping a 10 shot .22LR semi-auto pistol vs mag dumping a 9mm pistol of a similar size, then try it under pressure. In both cases I guran-fucking-tee you that you will have more shots on target FASTER with the .22 every fucking time, regardless of how well trained you are.
>>28037390
My girlfriend picked out a Ruger 9e for her first gun. She loves it. Thinking about getting her a lc9s to cc.
>>28037961
>stoppan powah is a complete and utter myth
True.
The necessity of adequate penetration has been proven an absolute necessity just as many times, if not more, throughout the entire fucking history of modern firearms
>>28037982
I think you'll find any defensive appropriate .22LR load meets all FBI penetration recommendations, including through thick clothing at self defense ranges (under 15 yards).
.22LR has the added benefit of bouncing around and deflecting off of bones in vivo, leading to more potential damage of critical anatomical structures.
>>28037995
>no** .22LR load meets all FBI penetration recommendations, including through thick clothing at self defense ranges (under 15 yards) **out of a compact pistol's barrel
Stopped laughing hard enough to correct you
>>28038007
sorry man, you're just simply incorrect:
http://lofigunandgame.com/the-venerable-22-lr-vs-gelatin-part-ii-standard-and-high-velocity-rounds/
FBI recommendation is 8-12 in of penetration, ever load tested meets that recommendation.
>>28037654
Mother has an LCRX (ruger LCR but with hammer) it snaps at me pretty good with 158 gr loads. As such, I loaded a buncha 125 gr for her to practice with, and it's really helped with the snapping. It was to the point of hurting between my thumb and index finger before I made the 125's. This is coming from a .40 owner.
>>28037301
You informed her that she is edgy as fuck, right?
>>28038007
>>28038027
Oh and by the way, all those rounds tested were hollowpoint .22s.
I have a box of CCI mini-mag copper plated round node right next to me. How much better penetration would you imagine these have compared to hollowpoints?
I've tested it, they "over penetrate" in ballistics gelatin at 16"
It's my favored self defense load.
>>28038053

Well fuck me, that's kinda neat
Don't see anything about "through thick clothing" though, and I imagine that's where it'd suffer the most.
>>28038028
I was actually looking at an LC9 for the girlfriend, I was wondering how the kick to it was. I'm wondering what size pistol would be best for her, she's 5'10"
Considered a USP compact if i could find one for a good price as well, but she doesn't have loads of money to spend.

The video is of the fullsize 9mm version, but the differences between it and the .22 are minimal, especially helpful since the trigger pull, controls and size is basically the same.
>>28037929
requires more shots and/or more accurate shot placement due to smaller inflicted wounds. This can be difficult to accomplish in a defense scenario.
>>28037868
how come there aren't any high capacity .22lr CC handguns god dammit. keltec put out that 30 rnd .22mag handgun, where the fuck are the .22lr's. would be perfect for plinking and CC if you want high volume of shots
>>28038332
KelTec just recently filed a patent for a 33 round 22LR handgun magazine based on the PMR30.
Goddamn man, the thought of a 33+1 concealable .22LR handgun makes me so hard.
But alas, it's fucking keltec who knows if it will ever even be produced.
>>28038408
33 rnd wouldn't be so compact thought would it? maybe 20 round....
>>28038424
It's the same size as the PMR30 magazine.
I need help choosing my first .22 pistol. Ruger Mk III or a Ruger Vanquero?
Specifically is the latter worth buying new?
>>28038429
in that case wouldn't you rather CC the 30+1 .22mag?
>>28038436
MkII. You'll get tired of popping out individual shells on the single six or bear cat.
Semis are easier, unless you have a hardon for single actions.
>>28038452
Nah, more rounds is better, always, and the .22mag in a pistol is more of a gimmick than anything, since most of the extra energy is spent in a blinding fireball at the end of the barrel and not actually helping to push the bullet any faster. That useless fireball and massively louder muzzle blast is a great way to completely fuck your situational awareness in the ass right when you need it most.
I'll take .22LR in a handgun over .22mag anytime, especially with higher capacity.

>>28038436
Get a MKIII, friend. Pictured is my TALO version MKIII, which is the only MKIII with a factory threaded barrel. You can get factory threaded barrels on the 22/45, but I much prefer the angle of the Luger style grip versus the more vertical angle of the 1911 style grip. Much more comfortable for target shooting, especially since it comes stock with the Hogue grip.
Can't complain, one of my favorite pistols I've owned.
>>28039084
Also full steel construction over the polymer frame on the 22/45.
>>28039084
>that reflex sight on a pistol

>>28039099
It's how a lot of guys run MK pistols in competitions, either reflex or red dots.
I prefer reflex to looking down a tube.
Also, you might notice too that there are no iron sights on that gun, so I really don't have a choice. ;-)

>>28039065
Not yet. But I'm working on it.
This was just to get her shooting more.
She likes it but she isn't a fan of .357 or .44 mag. I CC a s&w 357. It's not her favorite.
>>28039293
Well ok
>I'm jealous that you have a shooty GF.

>>28039432
No worries. I dated an antigun girl a few years back. Could'nt even get her to try it.
Should have seen the writing on the wall then, but I let it go on for three years.
>>28039614
I'm not worried, it's just that she thinks it's "too expensive a hobby". I'm currently noguns, but I found out there is a shooting range right next to my university building. I'll take her there as soon as I have some money on hand.
I'm looking forward to it, haven't been to a range in ages.
>>28037301
I have a Smith & Wesson 422.
Neat little .22 with a threaded barrel and a very low bore axis under the top of the slide to get the can away from the sights. Fun little shooter
>>28039708
My girlfriend wants a p290 for CC IN .380. She wants me to paint the frame light blue for her.
>>28039099
The MKIII is really pretty accurate though, for a pistol. I'd say a scope would do it some good, unless you're planning on CCing it or something.
I feel like the MKIII is pretty damned heavy though, which is ok for a target pistol but not so great for something you'd lug around in your waistband or under a jacket.
>>28039767
Nah, you'd never want to CC the MKIII. I've done it, just to do it, but it's far far too heavy and large to make sense as a CC weapon, for that weight and size you might at well CC a .45acp.
The MKIII is exceptionally accurate though. I shoot a 2in group at 25 yards consistently with that 2MOA dot CMORE setup. I'm sure there are those who could shoot it even better with my setup, but I don't even consider myself an exceptional marksman, just an avid plinker.
I wanted the knife and he said that the gun had to go with it . Fuck
Can a .22 pistol magazine hold many more rounds than a 9mm?
I wish I could CC in canada
>>28040013
you tell me
>>28040013
The PMR-30 holds 30 rounds of .22 caliber in a flush grip.
>>28040013
The issue with stacking .22 or any rimfire is the rims, which either givers you a banana style mag like the BX25 for the 10/22, or something more exotic like the PMR30 with two separated rows that are staggered with a steeply angled follower.
It's doable, but really the standard mag cap for semi-autos is 10 with very few exceptions outside of aftermarket mods.
Kids of really fucking pisses me off, but companies really look at .22LR pistols as target toys so there's little incentive to innovate with high cap .22s.
Fortunately you have innovative companies like KelTec that at least are trying to bring highcap rimfire semi-autos to market, and I'm hoping very, very strongly that their patent for the 33rd .22LR magazine comes to market due to the raving success of the PMR30.

What's a flush grip?
I'm canadian, I don't know your fancy american lingo
>>28040103
it means the bottom of the magazine fits flush (flat) with the bottom of the pistol grip, so that the mag isn't sticking out further than the part you hold.

...you carry a .22lr?
My wife carries a P224. I have a 9x23mm Winchester Sphinx 3000 on order/import for my daughter - she is 16. She is getting into 2-Gun, 3-Gun, ISPC and IDPA much more now and beginning to rank in competitions. I am trying to decide what to get for my youngest - she is 14. She also has had a Ruger Mk. II for two years. She wants to move to a larger caliber. I have seen her looking at .32 H&R Magnum, .327 Federal Magnum, .38 Special, 9x19mm, and 9x21mm firearms.
>>28040202
What's wrong with carrying .22LR.
It was already explained earlier in the thread why .22 is a good carry caliber.
>>28038284
The diameter difference between a .22 and 9mm is negligible.
What you want is longer wound channels - which means fragmentation, ricochet in the body, or more bullets.
Hydrostatic shock has almost zero effect on the size of the wound cavity, particularly because body tissue is elastic and very good at absorbing that kind of energy. It's not until you reach rifle/shotgun calibers that you can even start thinking of looking at damage from hydrostatic shock.
What you need to do is go out and read some of the medical literature on gunshot wounds. All this crap about bigger pistol bullets is fudd bullshit based on what people think is 'common sense' but actually isn't.
>>28039712
>>28039708
Great, There's a guy selling his for 225 near enough to me. But where can i find a different slide, or shroud that is. Seem's he tacticled his.
Alright /k/, the S&W 422 or the GSG 1911?
One 22. to rule them all...
>>28038332
it's a rimmed cartridge, designing a double stack magazine while avoiding rimlock is... difficult to say the least. That's why when keltec actually cracked it with the PMR-30 and no one believed them, they released the video of a Full retard sbr pmr-30 cycling through the magazines flawlessly as a big "fuck you" to the doubters.
>>28040310
I like the 422 but can't speak for the GSG. The 422 is an accurate, light weight .22 with a very interesting design the way the barrel sits in the frame not the slide. It's pretty neat desu senpai.
I know that parts are still readily available for the 422, even whole slide assemblies here:

>>28040525
Domo arigato sinse.
Now all I have to do is wait until it drives me mad at impulse buy one of them.
So i'm just gonna sit here and think till my eyes bleed.
To be honest I'm kind of leaning towards the Smith & Wesson. Under barrel 22 King kai, you can shoot it in reverse!
>>28037301
That's easily the best feeling 22 pistol I've ever held.
I'd been looking for one for a long time before I got mine, and had sort of decided on a ruger 22/45 after a while. But my mind changed the second I held the sr22. Everything from the looks, to the easy dis-assembly, to the feels won me over.
>>28040150
Oh god don't remind us.

I told my mom this. So fucking much.

Woman obviously doesn't understand a lot of purse snatchings happen from behind.
>>28040299
>and read some of the medical literature on gunshot wounds
sounds thrilling
>bigger pistol bullets is fudd bullshit
Well obviously velocity, shape, and mass have something to do with it too. A 5.7mm bullet is only .12 mm larger in diameter than a .22 but it has a hell of a lot more power behind it. How come more law enforcement agencies haven't taken your advice and adopted .22lr for its obvious advantages (lightweight, accurate, low recoil)? They clearly have access to the relevant medical literature.
>>28037430
those rugers are criminally fun to shoot, unbelievably accurate
Mine shoots CCI quiet and subsonic rounds with 100% reliability. Almost don't need a suppressor with that ammo.
>>28042120
>CCI quiet
Fun to shoot but don't think it will kill anything larger than a rodent.
As for subsonic .22LR, the only defense capable round that I know of is the Aguila SSS, which is giant fucking 60gr bullet in .22 short case. That's a fucking NASTY round and probably the absolute most effective defense .22LR inside of 10 yards. Carries a lot of energy and tumbles like a propeller.
Only downside is it can short cycle semi autos with short barrels and heavy actions. Seems to work fine in my SR22 but I still prefer CCI minimag 40gr roundnose for the sound peace of mind that it has the best primers in the business and that a mag dump of roundnose copper plated bullets is more than capable of ending someone's life on the spot.

Calm down Leeroy. Here's why I think you're a fuddy hillbilly too myopic to get out of your own flannel shirt:
>Fun to shoot but don't think it will kill anything larger than a rodent.
It is fun, but it will most definitely kill you dead.
>That's a fucking NASTY round
No, its an elongated .22lr round about 50% longer. It doesn't do anything special like fragment or mushroom. In fact, its also moving slower than a bulk pack 36gr bullet.
>the absolute most effective defense .22LR inside of 10 yards
Its not a defense bullet, .22lr isn't a defense cartridge. If you're using it for defense, it should be your last option.
>Carries a lot of energy and tumbles like a propeller.
Yes it still has less energy than a .25acp. Also, proprellers don't tumble, they spin. Who gives a shit if a slow-moving bullet spins in soft tissue? Its not creating hydrostatic shock.
>a mag dump of roundnose copper plated bullets is more than capable of ending someone's life on the spot.
Sure, its better than a sharp stick, and its still a gun in a knife fight. But holy blueberry fuckmuffins, fuddman, nobody was talking about self defense. I was pointing out a standard pistol cycling just fine with CCI quiet and subsonic ammo. You're the one that got off on fudd avenue.
Take your hunting vest, camo iphone cover, and your remington in .22-fudd and shove it up your clogged ass.

My great grandfather was a beat cop in the local cottonmill ghetto back in the 20's/30's. Ankle carried a smith and Wesson 22lr revolver. My little brother owns it now. Legend goes that it saved his life three separate times. I'm sure it will still kill just fine
>>28042938
>It doesn't do anything special like fragment or mushroom.
It does do something special. It fucking tumbles chewing up tissue and digging an eccentric wound cavity. That's a lot more special than simply getting fucking larger in diameter or shedding a little bit of weight as it travels, faggot.
> In fact, its also moving slower than a bulk pack 36gr bullet.
And yet, because you don't actually fucking know anything at all about ballistics, you fail to realize it still carries significantly more joules of energy. Interesting, isn't it little faggot?
>.22lr isn't a defense cartridge.
come at me, bro. 11 pop later, you won't be going anywhere ever again.
>Yes it still has less energy than a .25acp.
False.
> Also, proprellers don't tumble, they spin.
It was a figure of speech, faggot.
>Who gives a shit if a slow-moving bullet spins in soft tissue?
Because it carries a high energy content and rips the shit out of everything in it's path, which is eccentric path.
> Its not creating hydrostatic shock.
Hydrostatic shock in handgun calibers is a myth, you'd know that if you weren't a completely uneducated faggot.
>Sure, its better than a sharp stick, and its still a gun in a knife fight.

My grandfather bought this when I was just a kid. He always said it was mine when he died. I didn't realize that he told everybody else that, too. So when he died it was the only firearm he owned that was spoken for. All the rest were left to split as everybody could agree on.
I have put tens of thousands of rounds thru this pistol. I've never replaced a spring, rod, barrel, etc. And you are right, it is one of the most accurate firearms I own. Undoubtedly the most accurate pistol I own.
I didn't realize stainless Mark II's were a thing until right now, and only because I read your posts.
Thanks, guys. Seriously. You bring a smile to my face.
>>28043683
Sorry, i prefer to use facts than bubba's tumbling speculation
>>28043683
The SSS round is crap velocity out of a pistol and won't stabilize out of most 22 barrels so you had better be like 5 feet away or you are going to miss all 11 shots...
I still have the original walnut grips, too. I just didn't want them getting messed up so I put the hogue on.
When I die, my oldest daughter gets this. My grandfather was able to spend a few years with her before he passed, too. So it will have belonged to three generations.

might be one projectile reversal, and over penetration. Not exactly propeller tumbling.

Unlike faggots like yourself, I actually test my own guns in gel with each load I intend to make standard in my systems. Out of the SR22 the SSS penetrates 8-10 in. and will usually still tumble twice. The wound channel looks more damaging than most non+P JHP in anything up to .45ACP.
>>I know! I'll call him a faggot!
Most of you common core educated mouthbreathers are also effeminate princesses so I'd say it's a fair bet I'm right.
>>28043865
Also, I don't even carry SSS like I mentioned way back when, I still choose to carry CCI minimag 40gr copperplated roundnose, simply because I trust CCIs primers more than Aguilas.

I got an RG23 like this one from my grandpa, if I put more than 50 rounds through it the cylinder will have expanded too much to operate smoothly. It just feels so nice to hold though.
>>28038053
I wish dis was bait. But I know you are just incapable of useing logic. .22 is a plinking round. Sure it has the capacity to kill someone but I'm sure as shit not going to trust my life to it. Someone breaks in I'm grabbing my sig p938, not my 10/22

>Someone breaks in
>sig p938
If you're at home and you don't grab a fucking shotgun you're a goddamn moron incapable of rational thought.
If someone breaks into my home they're getting as many 12ga 00 as my 930 can fire before they're indistinguishable from the pink goo they make chicken nuggets out of.
If they fuck with me outside of the home they're getting 11 rds of 40gr round nose directly center of mass, or if they want to get a little more intimate, apply directly to forehead for exceptional headache relief.

Honestly, shotguns are a bitch and a half to use in a home scenario if you buy one that's not PURELY self-defense. Most come with a 24"+ barrel and a full stock. They're good for holding an angle, but anything more and they are a pain in the ass.
>>28044449
maybe if you're a woman or a manlet...
just sayin.

handguns are better for home defense in most cases. tbqh
>>28044470
When I say a pain in the ass, I don't mean "Waaaaaahhhhhhh too heavy and the recoil hurts mama ;_;" I mean that at a weapon that length, in a home, is difficult and ungainly to work with. However if you have a HD model (folding/collapsible stock + 18.5" barrel) then it'd be majorly mitigated.
It's just an awkward weapon platform sometimes.

Here's my spess gun. Best handling modern .22 I've fired. I'd give up my 10/22 in a heartbeat to lay hands on the carbine kit for this thing.
>>28045614
mine had an absolutely horrible trigger and the safety would dig into my hand... shit/10
>>28045627
Gen 1, I'm guessing? Lots of folks said the first run of these had terrible triggers and didn't like the safety. I've never had a problem with the safety myself, and my trigger is silky smooth, but mine's a Gen 2, so that could be the difference.

I bought an H&R Pardner Pump Protector for sub-$200 that runs great and fits the bill, but I do agree that if you have a lot of tight turns and blind corners in your house, a handgun is a more maneuverable, logical choice. Luckily I can see my front and back door from a foot outside my bedroom with clear shots in both directions, so I personally would use said armament.
>>28043729
I'm glad you like it man. They are one of the most coveted 22s out there. Grandpa had excellent taste.
ruger just came out with a long slide sr22... son of a bitch just take the money right our of my paycheck... pic is one of three .22 pistols I have.

>long slide sr22
hnng
threaded barrel when
My Taurus 94, recently purchased. 9 chambers, .22lr. Haven't gotten the chance to shot it yet, I'm itchin to.
>>28040895
>>28040895
I have to agree. I just feels better in the hand.
We were looking at the different MkIIs. But as soon as she held the sr22 that's what she wanted.
Plus she could CC it if she wanted.
Walther GSP Expert.

>I know right.jpg
I hope it makes on california's Stupid pistol list so they can sell a million of them. I want to get one and buy a cheap used one later for chuckle fuckery dual handed retardness.
Pic is the ruger mark I'm working on. Started from a 1inch tube of steel.
>>28046887
how much does one of those cost? I've always thought they looked amazing.
>>28046899
Wow!
>>28047083
About 2000$
>>28047045
What are the two safeties on that thing? I don't know what I'm looking at.
>>28045752
Right now I'm using my 3-gun rifle, but I just got a P220 that's going thru the waiting period.
Pro tip: Wait for Black Friday, go to your local range and see if they'll part with any of their rentals.
>mfw I got a Benelli Supernova and a P220R for $650 total
>>28044250
How's it run? And what would you pay for one.
Bouncing back in forth between this and the S&W 422....

ur a fuckin idiot m8 tbqh
>>28047123
damn, I really want one but It would probably cost me an extra 500-1000$ because lol, California. And unless I'm putting an extra 0 on all my paychecks there is no way I can rationalize it.
Here is another gun I want but doubt I would shoot very often.
