They recently got bought out or sold out to Taurus, so I guess they're not family owned anymore. Check on gunbroker.

Rossi did make an inexpensive .22, I don't recall them as having that great a reputation.

If you really want a .22 revolver, I'd recommend a Heritage Arms Rough Rider. It's affordable and American Made, and you can custom order it from their site, pickink the grips and colors with different options.
