I am seriously considering buying one, just because they're manufacturing plant is a few hours north of me. How reliable are they when it comes to feeding, and hows the trigger?

I bought one about a year ago - put on an inexpensive BSA red dot sight. Most fun I've had plinking. It's gobbled up everything and anything I've fed it with never a hiccup. Youy can't beat it for an inexpensive plinker.

I wonder if I can find a set of grips like those on nrajoe's 22A. Those are allot better looking than the factory composite ones!

I bought my 22a 7 years ago. I am always amazed at how much more accurate it is than my old Ruger single six. The only time I had a problem with feeding and misfires was when I tried to use some 22 ammo that had gotten wet. Wound up throwing the ammo away and bought new. Not the pistols fault but mine. Fresh ammo and it went bang every time I pulled the trigger.

I rented a 22A at the range and I shot it better then the three other 22's I own. A couple days later I traded a gun to get this. I shoot this gun everytime I go out to the range. I like the looks, feel and accuracy of this gun. I also recomend this gun everytime I am asked about "what's a good .22 to shoot with"?
