My 422 is one of my favorite shooters. Lightweight, accurate. The paint is peeling off, but it's functionally perfect.
I'd buy it. As a matter of fact, if you don't want it, pm me the seller's address... . Anything these days (except Jimenez, Jennings, and the like) for $100 is a bargain. But the 422 for $100 is a really good deal, IMO. W

If it works, that would be a great deal.

If you don't like it pm me, I will buy it. The one I have is the most used handgun I own.

That is quite a deal. If I was going to sell my 422 I'd expect at least $250-$300. I'm sure you could sell it at a gun show easily if you are unhappy with it.
The real trick now is finding ammo. check out 22longrifle.com |

Had one, loved it, got foolish, & sold it. I'd say go for it.

Yes I bought it and so far love it shoots great. Pulled it apart and cleaned it, I don't think it was ever cleaned before it was full of crap.
