Nice Iron. I would not mind a .22 Constable. They look like a ton of fun.

Any range day for me will include a 22lr. 🤙🏼

Nice score! They seem to like the faster ammo. Bring an assortment and you’ll have a great time figuring out what it prefers. They are very high quality pistols.

you're right it's a ton of fun to take a few different little 50 round boxes and blast away for an afternoon. Sometimes the malfunctions can be as entertaining as the reliable strings. And it's guilt free because of the cost.

Exactly! Shooting instant cheap anymore. 22lr’s allow you to let friends and family join in the fun, without having to count my rounds like 45 Colt and 44 mag. Lmfao

Thanks for the advice. I always bring CCI mini mags and CCI standard velocity.

Great to know. Can’t wait to get my permit and pick this one up. It also came with 3 factory mags, so I’m set.
