I've had mine since 2008 and use it to warm up and as a training tool with friends and relatives learning to shoot. Had a few issues to date but still like it a lot.

Replaced two firing pins, recoil spring and take down button so far. Then a larger problem that Smith and Wesson repaired under warranty (at 7 years old).

Has an estimated 30 to 35K rounds through it and keeps chugging along.

Cool - I have a NIB factory magazine that I will send you you for free. I don't have the gun but have a mag for one, go figure. I sent you an email to get your address.

Wow! That's very kind of you. Thanks so much - I'll reply to your email with my address.

This forum, and the members here, never ceases to amaze me.

Have had three 22A. One of them was just a bit off and was sold. However, for a year they were used in bowling pin competition. I used a 4mm round file to make one of the slide/top grooves deep enough for a red-dot sight. Cut it very slowly and it was OK. Used an OLD Buckmark for iron sights and the 22S with red-dot in "dot" category. Wife used the other 22A. This year we used Victory SW22 with $19 red-dot and lightweight barrel.

Hard to beat SW22 or Ruger Mark IV 22/45 Lite. Competition is good for us. Mac
