Analysis

This classic double-action revolver in .22 LR offers a solid option for shooters seeking an affordable, lightweight firearm for plinking or small game hunting. Its accuracy is commendable, especially at moderate ranges, thanks to a well-aligned barrel and consistent cylinder lockup. The ergonomics suit a wide range of hand sizes, with a grip that provides a secure hold during extended sessions. Reliability is generally strong, with minimal malfunctions when properly maintained. However, maintenance can be a challenge, as disassembly and cleaning require patience due to the design’s intricacies. Parts availability is another concern, as replacements may be difficult to source for older units. The trigger pull, while smooth in double-action, feels somewhat heavy, potentially affecting precision for newer shooters. Felt recoil is negligible, making it an excellent choice for beginners or those sensitive to kick, though experienced users might find it underwhelming for more dynamic applications.
