LibertyRocks is talking about your stainless Ruger MkIII Hunter with the custom wood grips.

LR, it's a .22 pistol made by Ruger. They are very nice. Ruger has been making this model type since 1949. Andy's is the most updated version but still has the classic 'Atomic Age' style.

If you were going to get a first pistol for yourself LibertyRocks, that is the one to get.

Thanks for clearing that up.

Thought he was talking about the Para...:)

I can think of a couple of others like the Walther P22 with the target barrel or the Sig Mosquito or the Browning Buck Mark. I can't post any pix from here but I'm sure somebody can...The Browning and the Walther are comparable in price to the Ruger. The new Walther looks more like one of Captain Kirk's phasers (not the ones from the Picard era!) than a normal handgun.

Very cool... Thanks so much for the info! :)

Agreed. My *version* is a Ruger Mk 512 (MkII with a target bull barrel), and any pistol in that series is a certifiable "tack driver", extremely accurate...
