Can anyone with experience with the PT22 comment? Or, does someone know of another pistol that is a good candidate?
I know the PT22 and many Taurus guns get mixed reviews. I am not going to bet my life on it, but only use it for economical practice.
Thanks.
If you are just looking to improve your double action skills the PT22 Poly would be a good choice. It has about a 7# pull, but it's very smooth. .
Never trust anyone who doesn't trust you to own a gun.
