The pistol looks weird with the long grip


A Doe walks out of the woods today and says, that is the last time I'm going to do that for Two Bucks.

Factory target grip and far more comfortable to shoot. Looks??

I agree the longer grips make hitting with the 2" Kitgun easier.
The 2" Kitgun has enough mass for one hand shooting and for double action shooting. The longer grip makes it easier. For holster carry the grip does not get in the way.

we aren't talking pocket guns here laugh

When I swap out the barrel on my old M41, though a touch heavy, it is a reasonable trail piece.

For me, the 422/622/2206/2214 Smiths are the best shooting and carrying 22 pistols ever made. There are prettier guns, and better crafted guns, but as an overall package, I have found nothing that compares.

Impressive. Years ago I was talked into putting down a blind diseased horse years ago, botched it, grabbed my former Python 6" and dumped it like you did the steer. Shot placement.....
What pump? Nice shot btw! How you want to do it - right.

You're confusing armadillos with 'possums smile

You need to find one of the 5.5" sporter barrels, handy and light weight:

S&W 63 with a 5" barrel first choice. A S&W 34 second choice.

Mine used to be a single six convertible, but lately it' been my SR-22, light accurate and reliable makes it a nice choice.

Correct. Had my doubts from the beginning - just followed the instructions given but the fact he didn't do it probably says he never had nor knew the proper placement. My Python w a light HP polarized it. Had I done as you - I might not have had so much conscious playing on me. Steer never knew what happened. 62-A should be a sweet rifle
