Gun is OK. Put 500 rounds through one today. A few things I noticed Trigger Pull - Heavy trigger pull. Small - Small grip, although it does come with the extender. Even with the extender it was a little too small for me. Pinky was free unless I squeezed my hand really hard. Jams - Used CCI minimag rounds and had 3 jams out of 500. Magazine staggers the bullets in a non-particular fashion so a few jams happened and the slide is heavy so the ammo doesn’t always clear - May have just needed more oil. Accuracy - Sights were decent but not great and the barrel is fairly short so when I compared it with my S&W in terms of accuracy it was definitely not as accurate. Also thought the mag release tended to stick and the button was fairly small. Oh and one more thing, if you will be quick-firing through a magazine watch your front hand because the flash tended to touch my hand a few times and I felt some decent heat, which has a lot to do with how short the barrel is. All in all this is a fairly decent gun, especially for the price, but those things above really surprised me. This is just my opinion so don’t take my word for it - Go test one if you can. Barrel is heavy duty and I like the safety and ease of loading the mags.

I'll admit that I cheated on Buds gun shop and cheaperthan dirt.But I will never return to either of those sites. I ordered the SR22 16 April after the email notification of availibility. Then on 19 April my pistol was ready to pick up. I have faith in Ruger, this is my third ruger firearm. I'll take it out to the range SUN(22 April). Now if you would only notify the the KEL TEC AR15 pistol is available.

Range report: Like all Ruger pistols fit and finish are top notch, won't go though the details on what comes with the gun, but most importantly you get two ten round clips which come in handy when your ripping through 500 round a trip. Accuracy is on par with other Ruger's in other words the gun is much better than 98% of us will shoot, out of the box the adjustable sights were dead on as far as windage but shot low at 10 yards consistently with 4 different types of ammo used, easy fix, half turn up and good bye bulls-eye. I had zero "gun" malfunctions or failure to feed, (note I shot 500 rounds right out of the box, I did not clean, just two low power green box Remingtons failed to fire. The beauty of this gun is that it is a perfect training gun in feel and operation for a full sized higher power pistol. A second use that I had not planned on or even thought about is the SR22 is a perfect way to "loosen up" and get into rhythm for shooting larger pistols. I ran 200 through the SR22 focusing on sight alignment and a consistent trigger pull then jumped to a Sig P220 one of my carry guns and plowed 50 in a 2 inch hole at 10 yards. I liken it to hitting a bucket of range balls before a round of golf, doesn't always help but never can hurt. Conclusion, the Ruger SR22 is going to be every 10 year olds dream gun, it has a high cool factor, shoots anything you can put through it, is as accurate as any 3 inch barrel out there, and its relatively cheap! Oh yeah it's a pretty cool gun for us older dudes too, if you can find one grab it you won't be sorry.

Love the gun. Have put roughly 500 rounds through it and only have experienced one failure to feed. I've put federal through it no problem, and have also tried the higher end ammunition without any problems. This is a sturdy gun and I would recommend it to anyone buying a pistol for the first time, or want to enjoy inexpensive plinking. 4.5 out of 5 stars!

Put 550 rounds through this pistol. Ruger made another great gun (I also bought a SR9C which is dead on accurate). I am fairly accurate with this gun but the shorter barrel makes hitting the center of the target a little more challenging (not impossible - just challenging). No jams/FTF or the like. Used Remmington ammo and getting some CCI soon. I really enjoy both guns by Ruger.

Got in on this bunch of SR22's from Impact, and picked it up at my dealers yesterday. There were customres at the local store wanting these, and they didn't have any. I felt great to get mine. Thanks to Impact Guns

This is really a fun pistol to shoot. I have put a little over 1000 rounds of bulk federal... through it with no problems. I use the larger grips. No problems with the magazines or grips. Great that those features are included(2 extra finger grip extensions, 2 grips...one small and one large, and the 2 magazines). Very pleased with it so far.

By Erik from North Carolina

First the good: The SR22 shoots and handles very well. The interchangeable grips make it fit different hand sizes well. I've got over 500 rounds through mine and there have been no feeding or firing issues (FTL, FTF, FTE, etc) with a variety of ammo. The SR22 is quite inexpensive. The SR22 has great balance. Now the cons: There is an interference fit between the magazines (I've tried five) and the larger of the two grips. The magazines insert and retain fine with the smaller grip or with no grip, but when the larger grip is installed one must bang pretty hard on the magazine to get it to click into place and stay put. It can be done, but it's not easy or reliable. I wrote Ruger via email about the problem and they responded with a request for me to send all five magazines back so they could check them. So FIVE magazines don't fit in ONE gun and it's the MAGAZINES that are the problem? Answers like this make me nuts! What happened to THINKING? So I then spent 1/2 hour on hold with Ruger until I got through to somebody. They want me to write a detailed letter describing the problem, package up the magazines, the gun, and everything else and then drive 45 minutes out to the UPS depot (not to the local USP store) to ship it back to them. I guess my time isn't important to them. Think I'll just throw it in the back of the safe and write it off as a loss. This is my first and last Ruger. I will stick with CZ's. They have fewer issues, and their customer support is MUCH better!

Have fired more than 500 rounds and not even a burp or jam with the cheapest ammo I could find. Right out of the box at 15 yards was a good 2 inch group ( in door range ) with CCI amo and some ELY ammo.

By Marty from Maine

This is a great gun. I took it straight from paying at the counter into the range and went through 100 rounds of the cheapest .22 ammo that Impact had. I had no issues at all with the gun and it functioned flawlessly. I would recommend it to anyone learning to shoot handguns, teaching kids, or using it for a trainer gun before going to larger caliber handguns.

By DJ from Utah

...Couldn't be more pleased. Tried 5 different types of ammunition that first day at the range and it gobbled up anything I put through it, from the inexpensive Remington and Federal bulk ammo (some of which had been hanging around the house for a couple years) to the higher end CCI. No FTFeed, FTEject, or FTFire. No complaints. I like the feel and appreciate the additional floor plate with the finger rest...

By Erik from Denver

This is an excellent little 22LR pistol. Fits most hands well and has different size grips as well as extensions for the magazines to help. Shoots anything I fed it so far without any problems. Accurate shooter, easy balance and has easy to adjust three dot sights that can be reversed for those not liking the white dot system on the rear sight. It comes with a good lock, two magazines, two mag extensions, changeable size grips and a carry case. The trigger pull in single action is great, but double action is a bit to tight for me. Maybe a "new" thing! I haven't been a Ruger fan because of past experience, but this could convert me. OK, this and my son's SR9C!!! I only have a few small issues that kept it from being a 5 star weapon... I would recommend getting a SR22 when you can. It's a great weapon with a few small flaws that might work themselves out generally in a few months. (edited for length)
