I saw a "nice" for lack of a better word, RG-22, revolver, at my LGS during the summer. It looked unfired. I had wanted one back when I was younger, because it was cheap and I could imagine being able to afford it. Even then I was under no illusion that it was "as good as" anything else, but it was better than nothing. They were $29.95 back then, but I never had $29.95. The LGS was asking $79.95 for the one they had. I could have probably gotten it for $50.00.
I was tempted, mostly just for grins and giggles, but it didn't have the box and papers
so I passed on it.
