    This .22 is incredible!! Although. I don’t feel comfortable carrying a .22 for EDC, I love having one for skills practice, helping friends learn to shoot and just fun plinking. The Ruger SR .22 has been the most reliable .22 handgun I have owned or even shot yet, well next to the Ruger Mark III. But as for convenience to carry, take down, and appearance- a definite #1. My husband, a retired police officer of 32 years taught me to shoot and one of his first “policies ” was that I be able to take down and clean all my own guns. I’ve put all kinds of ammo through this gun with no malfunctions. I managed to find it in Titanium Blue and get so many compliments on the gun. As with my other guns, I picked a fancy Kydex OWB Holster from TWAW and have a blast with it! This is the gun we will start our Grandson with, probably when he turns 6. I definitely recommend!
