My brother-in-law called and said that my teenage nephew wants a .22lr revolver for Christmas. It will strictly be a target gun--no hunting, no self-defense. There'll also be no formal competing--just plinking. The kid is big-- 6'2" and 240lbs. His hands aren't huge, but I think a Ruger Bearcat or a SP-101 might be too small (given that we're talking a range gun only). But, if you think one of those is the way to go, just say so!
Why not an automatic? 'Cuz the kid wants a revolver!
I'm going to guess the budget is in the $450 range, certainly no more than $500. New or Used, SA or DA, it doesn't matter.
I'm guessing I'll end up recommending a single six convertible, but thought I'd ask here first.
Thanks!
