| Not sure if I have the same model or not. MIne is a 22mag.stainless and looks very similar. DA trigger pull is very heavy, but gun is acceptably accurate at 25 yards ie. about 8 ring accuracy. Haven't shot it at 50. Peter.

| Thanks guys. Looks like more mixed reviews. Maybe these are a real crap shoot for quality. I just have a hard time justifying $600 or $700 for a S&W .22 that will do the same thing. Are there any decent .22 DA revolvers out there at a sane price?

| There is a S&W 617 for sale in the Classifieds. It probably doesn't get much better than that in a DA 22lr revolver. Peter.

| Bought mine new for abound $300. Had to return it to Taurus tho to adjust the barrel so it would shoot left after running out of rear sight adjustment. That and an action job I did myself with Wolf Spring package for $8.00 makes it an absolute delight to shoot. Singe action trigger is now a crip 3 lbs. Great to knock around with when scouting.. |
