Daughter is 8. Thumbing through magazines this weekend must have got her wheels spinning. She’s wrote her letter to Santa. She wants a Hellcat. Santa likely won’t deliver one but thinking a .22 of some variety.

I don’t want to buy cheap junk. But not opposed to buying cheap that is if a good value if that makes sense.

Like the idea of single action revolver for having a good (compared to a DAO) trigger, but thinking Ruger Wranglers just look cheap.

Ruger Bearcats might be in the cards, but upper spend limits.

Any of the Italian revolvers any good?

Polymer autos like a SR22?

I’ve got a Buckmark with the heavy, long barrel, forget the model, that is her pistol shooting experience and what led to her wanting her own.

Use will purely be highly supervised backyard plinking.

Throw out your recommendations….
