As i posted those pictures earlier, a k22 masterpiece, 17-3, found it’s way to my gun safe.

Couldn’t be happier with it.

I've got an old Taurus 96 Trail Scout...
I picked up a used Taurus 96 probably 10 years ago or so. In the display case at the gun shop I thought it was a Smith 17 at first glance. Then I saw the price and the realization that it was "just a Taurus."

I was skeptical but after coming back and looking it over again and the shop owner dropping the price I took a chance on it.

It turned out to be quite a good shooter back when I could see the sights.

There are many good 22s out there including the Dan Wesson, Smith 17, the Ruger Single Six, etc but none of them are the equal of a Freedom Arms revolver. The FA costs a lot more but it is better in every measurable way. The lock up, the barrel, the trigger, the sights, the cylinder gap, etc, etc. They are really a bargain compared to paying a top gunsmith to do all of those things to a production revolver.

Darn it, I won the bid, is $400 a good price for a Ruger stainless convertible six?
