sr22 pistol

[Speedpower]

It's a blast to shoot the SR22, but I'm getting Hammer bite, anyone experiencing the same?

The SR22 is a blast. Love mine with the Lasermax Uni-Micro laser:

Where did you get the Laser? Online? Store? How much was it?

It's a blast to shoot the SR22, but I'm getting Hammer bite, anyone experiencing the same?

I noticed that after extensive time shooting mine that I get a little reddish spot on my hand from the hammer. I just stuck a little strip of electrical tape on my hand and no more bite.

[JxPakman]

Is the hammer bite that bad? I haven't had a chance to go to the range yet, but at least for my hand it doesn't seem like it will pinch. Can you notice the pinch or is it just a little redness that you notice after shooting the gun?

[DesertSniper]

I can tell you what bites bad... not being able to buy this pistol!!

How does the SR22 compare to walther p22 or sig mosquito from a function/reliability aspect? I read a lot has to do with ammo choice. I want to ask, have any of you shooters experienced any ftf/fte/ft anything and if so, what were the conditions that caused a particular failure? How were they remedied?

Not actually a bite like you get when shooting a 1911 without a beaver tail, but more of a blister from shooting the gun, I got a really bad blister (abrasion) from 1st time shooting it 2 weeks ago, then last night it happened again, now I wonder if I can just bob the hammer like how other people do to the hammer on their 1911.

It is the Lasermax Uni-Micro laser sight. Available on Amazon for $112. Worth every penny.

Couple of things.

I have put 850 rounds of Federal Bulk 525 through my SR22P. Not a single FTE or FTF. Not one. This pistol is every bit as reliable as my beloved Ruger Mark IIIs and the Mark II.

I have never, not once, experienced hammer bite. I am not a big guy, so maybe a very large hand might although I doubt it.

Really pleased with the gun.

I have had mine for about 3 weeks got about 1k with a couple of FTF with bulk ammo other than that vary nice. I'm glad i got one with the pistol on the slide i think it will be worth more one day since there aren't as many.

Awesome. I was looking to get a buckmark to scratch my rimfire pistol itch but the sr22 looks like a winner. I understand markII & markIII are reliable too but the sr22 is much cooler looking imo, like a mini sr9.

I just started DROS on my second SR22P if that tells you anything about how I like the gun. I will say that there is no finer 22 than the Mark III.

Buckmarks are fine guns but I will take either of the Rugers over it. But that is a very personal opinion.

Ruger SR22

Took my Ruger SR22 out last night for the second time , its a super fun lil piece ... chews and spits everything you throw at it ....

so far i have put

60 rounds of federal , 50 rounds of american eagle , 50 rounds of remmington viper , and 220 rounds of CCI mini mags , and my favorites are federal and CCI mini mags ... mini mags group a whole lot better ...

i will be talking her out again to try out some CCI stinger , CCI velocitor , and some cheap blazer , and let you fellas know how she does ...

Good info. I am pretty happy with the way my SR22P groups with just plain old Federal Bulk 525. But it would be fun to see if the CCI does better for me as it does for you.
Amazing how this little gun just shoots everything, never jams, and is accurate to boot.

Are there any trigger mods that can be done to get rid of some of the creep and lighten the pull?
