Give me an idea of how much I can expect to spend for a pistol.....I’m thinking of a revolver.
I have seen some of the Rossi and Taurus revolvers for not much over $200. They are decent guns but for the better S&W models they probably start at around double that.
Smith & Wesson does sell a .22 auto for around $260 or a little more.
A decent revolver will probably be $400 or higher. Look at .357
I’m also looking for a good deal on a smaller handgun. A Christmas present for my wife. She loves shooting my 9mm but it’s more that she can handle and she needs something to keep in her purse. A friend suggested a Ruger SR22 - about $350.
Check out Hi-Point, they make a good weapon with a great deal of value. I have fired the 9mm and the .45 both were solid.
depends if you want a big boy or concealable, and what caliber you want. also if you want new or well taken care of used.
