So many targets, so little time.

I see how there is a .22 pistol disease out there. My first handgun was a Browning Buckmark 18yrs ago. I've shot it quite a bit over the years. And it's still my favorite and most accurate hundgun I own.

Wanted to get a .22 that I could mount a red dot on. So I recently purchased a S&W 22A. Haven't purchased the optic yet. But it's a shooter as well.

If I come across one for the right price or I get all my other accesories purchased. I would like to add a Ruger .22 to the collection as well.

Hey KSblazer

I did what your talking about to my S&W 22A...put a Red-Dot on the back-end. Works great on a gun that was doing fine with open sights also.

Here's mine-

Shot my first match with the M41 and open sights yesterday.

Did "meh"....I can shoot much better than I performed in the match.

So, back to the range today.

Re-mounted the micro red dot.

Sighted it in at 50yds.

2" groups from a rest (and I'm no marksman)

Next match I plan to shoot both classes:
K22- irons
M41- red dot

Mayor Al

That is the set up I'm looking for.

Plan to do it in the next paycheck or two.

Held a few in my hand yesterday -- Buckmark, 2245, and Mark III. The Mark III target felt the best by in my hand. It was followed by the Buckmark then the 2245. Should have my Mark III today after my background check clears.
