[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 1255110, member: 13337"] You should forget the reviews of guns,,, And don't listen too much to recommendations either. Go to the gun stores and hold them in your hand,,, The one that fits you best is the one you should buy. The following guns are all very high quality,,, The arguments about which is best could go on forever. Browning Buckmark - Great gun with a funky (to me) grip. S&W 22A - Great gun with a really fat grip. Beretta NEOS - Great gun with a very slender grip. Ruger Mk II or Mark III - Great gun with a "Luger-like" grip. Ruger Mk II or Mk III model 22/45 - Great gun with a "Colt 1911-like" grip. I personally like the NEOS and the 22/45,,, But that's because they fit my hand very nicely. These are probably the top five of the readily available and reasonably priced .22 semi-automatic pistols,,, As I stated before there is no end to the arguments of which is the best of those pistols,,, Suffice it to say that any of them will be more accurate than most shooters,,, Handle them all and buy the one that fits your hand the best. As to the Taurus P22,,, Man, that's an iffy gun to buy,,, If you happen to get a good one it will work forever,,, If you happen to get a bad one it will never ever work properly. You would be better off getting your wife a used S&W Model 34,,, That's a snub-nose .22 revolver of very high quality. If the money is a big factor try a Taurus Model 94,,, It's a .22 revolver and can be found in a snub-nose version,,, No where near as high quality as the Smith & Wesson but it's serviceable. Hope this helps,,, [COLOR="Silver"].[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
