I've been looking to get a nice .22 pistol so that I can shoot regularly without breaking the bank. It doesn't have to be a super awesome professional deal, like a S&W Model 41.
My friend recently offered to sell me his S&W 22a with accessories for a really good price, but a lot of people seem to swear by the Ruger MkIII. I've heard good things about the MkIII, but the 22a package I was offered is a hell of a deal. I figured I'd get an opinion here before I went ahead and spent the money. I'm not going to be joining a shooting team or anything at this point in time, so this is more or less a "fun at the range" type of gun. Should I hold out for a MkIII, or will the 22a suit my needs?
