Kel-Tec has grabbed considerable market share with its excellent P17 .22 pistol.

“Beretta, USA, Gallatin, TN, is reported to have made 14,123 .22 or smaller caliber pistols in 2021. Beretta USA makes several versions of their famous tip-up semi-automatic .22s in the USA”
Alas the Bobcat is sleeping (discontinued, again) but its larger sister the Tomcat got a reboot as the 30x including an optics-ready version (!)

By ATF admissions, data is kept two years in arears for manufacturer benefit.
I bet the Sig P222 is the hottest seller of a single pistol form.

P222 is the P322. Coffee is brewing.

16 rounds of CCI Stinger would make that a good pocket gun.
Just make sure to keep all your KEL-TECs clean.
That’s the only issue I have had with the brand.
A little dirt can cause major malfunction.

I posted a link to a 3 minute video of Hickok45 with the Ruger Mark IV, which he shows the ease of taking it apart.

Ruger also makes them in what they call the 22/45 models where the grip is aligned like the 1911.

My (sometimes) gf needs a small, 5+ shot .22 revolver, for her first gun. Reasonably priced, not heavy, for small hands. Used is fine.
Any ideas?

Ruger LCR...
.
Hard to find it but Nice.

Have been thinking about a Ruger Mark IV, I like the feel, aim, and easy disassembly. Thanks for mentioning the Kel Tec, might be wiser to have something smaller to carry. I’ll rent one, and give a shot.

I remember when the .22 was the most hated firearm by the news media and democrat politicians. In 1970, the Denver Post called for a ban on American Made SATURDAY NIGHT SPECIALS as foreign ones had been banned by the 1968 gun control law.
The illustration they used for a SNS was a Ruger Mark II, which cost $45 at that time. They considered any handgun priced at below $50 at that time to be a SNS. “Rifles and shotguns will not be affected!” was the promise.
I was in a pawn shop not long ago. I saw an old SNS that sold new in 1968 for $12. They wanted 125 for it.

You will not be disappointed with the Ruger Mk IV 22/45.

I saw an old SNS that sold new in 1968 for $12. Was it an RG? That's the cheapest pistol I ever held.

I still have my Browning Buck Mark from 1994, complete with carrying case, instructions, and two magazines.

You will not be disappointed with the Ruger Mk IV 22/45. Unless you have the older model which does NOT disassemble and re-assemble easily. They made the new right one right AFTER I bought the old model.

Yes, Ruger LCR. It is an eight shot, and is light. However, the trigger pull is a bit heavier for the .22, to ensure ignition of the rimfire cartridges.
