I am looking to upgrade from the 22 wheel gun to a semi auto pistol, one of the local shops has these on sale at a good price. Just wondering how these preform under normal hunting conditions. In the likes of reliability accuracy and such I will probably be putting a red dot or other optics on it, if I buy one. It is between that and a Ruger MK3 hunter, if the smith is good I wouldnt mind saving the money but I would rather get a good pistol one time than buy one to find out it would be better to throw the gun at a coon. Or would I just be better off using my 22 rifle, I am a pretty good shot with both pistol and rifle, I just prefer to not hump a rifle through the woods at night.

I have a S&W 22A and a ruger MkIII. MKIII hands down in my opinion the 22A is junk(jams aaaalot!!!) The MKIII is a bull to take down and clean but well worth it for the reliability and accuracy gains over the 22A. Just my opinion that is based on my own experience.
I ended up getting a deal from an ffl holding friend, I got a ruger 2245 mkiii brand new for 200 slaped a red dot on it, a new hammer and sear to take the creap out of the trigger and I cant complain one bit

Have you got a holster for it? I use an uncle miks for my Taurus HMR Revolver right now.I thought about putting a red dot on it but didn't know about it fitting in a holster.
I went searching around and did find holsters that will hold a scoped pistol. I also threw out the red dot mess an decied to get a Leupold pistol scope
Im thinking about getting me a pistol walking through the woods with two hounds and a rifle is a bit troublesome somthimes keep up with the reviews this information is great
It is a good handgun, but ctblue you know just as well as every1 does that if it aint white with a little black, then send it back cause it wont do crap treein walkers are the best, use em forget the rest
Man every one has there own opinion on what the best breed of dog is, so don't go bashing somebody's elses dog just because you don't like anything besides walkers.... ALL breeds are capable of doing what they are trained for........
my mark II stainless is the best handgun i have ever owned ..................................
