I've had a couple Taurus .22 revolvers on my mind for years, but they're a PITA to get currently and have been since Covid. I am not interested in waiting another Summer to get my hands on a DA .22 revolver, so I'm seriously considering buying something else. Price is a factor, one reason I was going to go with Taurus was they were a good price and with .22 revolvers all the triggers tend to suck regardless of whether you buy a $300 one or an $800 one.
I'm not interested in S&W.
I had interest in the Ruger LCRx at one point and IDK what happened, but lost interest. Currently this is my top alternative as I figure if I don't like it it will be easy to sell because the Ruger fanboy club is strong round these parts. It's going to be funny hearing from someone behind the counter who is transferring me the LCRx describe a 17oz aluminum and polymer revolver as "BuIlT lIkE a TaNk!!!"
No interest in the SP101 .22 and the GP100 .22's are too big, too heavy for what I want.
There's also Charter Arms, I don't like the way they look and don't care for the company's current quality these days, but I've heard good things about their .22's.
The last option is the Alfa Proj revolvers that Rock Island imports. These would be the highest in price of all that I'm looking and they seem like quality revolvers, but I have no experience with the brand, nor do many others. Not sure if the risk is worth the reward.
