I got a 22lr single six back in 1984 with the mag cylinder extra with it . I see no need to get another one , For me do not care much for the 22lr handguns that is out today . Hope it works for how the new ones that is being bought.

Shot 50 rounds through it so far of 22lr. 2" group at 20 yards is fine with me and hitting 4" and 8" plates at 50 yards. All I need it for is trapping but obviously gonna be using it for plinking as well. So far I'm happy.

Nice! I carry a Browning Buckmark loaded with Remington .22 LR Subsonics for most cases. Spare mag is loaded with CCI's SGB 40 grain solids for anything that needs penetration. Light, compact, rides on the hip out of the way. I’m about to purchase the stainless camper version of the Browning Buckmark. Glad you like it. Been using an H&R 930 snub that was my grandfather’s but I think I’m going to retire it.

Happy to say I have all the pistols mentioned in this thread! I've got thr rough rider with 22lr and 22wmr cylinders, browning buckmark and the Roger wrangler in burnt bronze. Some days I feel like carrying them all. Wild Idaho, you got a good deal on that rough rider, I think I paid $100 for mine and had to pay an extra $35 or so (plus wait 2 months) for my 22wmr cylinder. Picked up the wrangler as soon as I could find one somewhat close to me in the burnt bronze and the buckmark was a gift from my uncle. and a Pmag, nice choice in mags and .22s

Bough a new trapping pistol today a Heritage Rough Rider 22lr with 22wmr cylinder. Shot a cylinder of 22lr when I got home and it shoots great. Way better than lugging my rifle around on a sling. Got one years ago and love it, does the job that is asked of it to do. Great for what I use it for and never had any issues.

When I'm on the trap line, I use the AR15 223 for my varmint gun in case I see something on the trail, and if I need a moose for winter meat, I just throw my 30-40 1885 High Wall Trapper Model in a saddle scabbard, and strap it to the SkiDoo. I also have a .410 870 strapped to the other side of the SkiDoo for ptarmigan and rabbits. Can't carry just one gun up here in Alaska, at least I don't. When it's boating season, I always have a shotgun and a bigger rifle on board, usually my 10 gauge BPS and 45/70 1895 Marlin. If I'm really hunting moose or bear, I put the 9.3×62 CZ in the boat, longer ranged than the 45/70. But the two pistols go everywhere with me all year.

I am going to buy the one with adjustable sights before season.
