EAA Bounty Hunter (Silver model) ?

[newbie1234]

What is your opinion on the EAA Bounty Hunter (silver model), 8 shots, 4.75" barrel ?

If you're going to go with a rimfire E.A.A. Bounty Hunter, I would go with the 10 shot model over the 8 or 6 shot. The biggest reason is the frame. It is made entirely of steel on the 10 shot. On the 6 and 8 shot it is manufactured from Aluminum alloy. That in itself doesn't necessarily make it "bad". But it lacks the durability of steel. You also have 2 less shots.

The 10 shot Bounty Hunter .22 is built on the centerfire .45 Bounty Hunter frame. So it's a bigger, heftier weapon. Another factor is the Aluminum frame Bounty Hunters are not available in states that have "Melt Laws". These are laws that prohibit guns being sold that have frames that will melt, or become distorted at temperatures of 850 F or less. The 10 shot is more money. But if you're buying this gun for a lot of shooting or holster carrying, it is worth the extra expense. I posted pictures on this forum of my E.A.A. 10 shot Bounty Hunter, if you want to see what they look like.
