I have well over 30 handguns in my safe, but, alas, I have but two .22's.

Ruger Standard Model, 6" barrel
Jennings J-22 (my ugly duckling, red headed stepchild...I keep it because everyone hates it and can't believe that I have one)

I used to shoot the Ruger a lot, but I haven't shot it in probably 15 years. Once I got into centerfires, the .22 thrill just seemed to fade away, sort of like shooting a BB gun.
