I have a few Ruger 22 guns, as one would expect from a collector at his hobby since 1971. Been an RCA member since 75. But my favorite guns are 1) my original single six convertible 6 1/2 inch which I traded for at age 16 and I have carried for near 50 years, it is well worn. 2) Then my NR9 that I shot in many championship silhouette matches over the years. I never was able to shoot the standard auto to my expectations, as the Nambu grip style just did not fit my hand. 3) But I have owned several Browning Buckmark silhouette guns and they have a 1911 style grip frame, which fits me much better. A 5-inch target model with a red dot rides with me on the tractor just about every day at the farm. I think I am up to two dozen turtles from my fishponds with the Browning.

I use Bearcats to train new shooters with for a revolver if they are youngsters or ladies. It is a great little training gun, accurate, small grip and light.
