Thanks big Guy! Any Man,Womqn or Child that doubts your word, is screwing up to start with! I mean , Really?? If the Plinkster can't do it..It CAN NOT be done ...if He does it, put it in ya pipe and smoke it,Cause it's a fact !
So he hit at 100-150 that's not saying jack! If I hit at 50 that would prove a great pistol. I just saw plinkster shoot thru the barrel of another gun! The kids good!
I’m glad I seen these comments because I’m wanting to buy the Ruger 22LR for primary carry. I have a Ruger LCR 9mm but it’s of course bigger and more difficult to carry on me. Ive watched several vids and they all say not good for self defense. But a bullet is a bullet and it would definitely slow someone down. I’m going to be shooting my attacker in 2 places…head & heart. What ammo would y’all recommend for self defense in the Ruger 22??
We bought this little LCP II in 22LR this week for my wife's EDC. We took it out shooting yesterday. What a hoot!! I really like this pistol. We had a couple of malfunctions, but they were early in the shooting day. My wife is extremely unable to handle recoil so that is why we went with this little guy. Bought 2 extra mags at the same time. Loving this gun! Good video!
@@jh8338 I shot mine at the range after buying it with both awful bulk ammo, and high quality ammo. I got multiple failures to feed with the shitty ammo and in some cases I had to drop the mag to clear the round, which sucks. But when I switched to high quality ammo I had zero issues. I don't think it's necessarily a picky piece, but you're really testing your luck if you carry it without using high quality ammo that you've tested personally with your own LCP.
My little Ruger has never stove piped. Using inexpensive range ammo I have a dead fire now and then. But the weight and complete concealability of this gun makes it my edc.
Not sure why so many on CZcams discourage 22 as a ccw, a couple of 22,s in the face will drop anybody , plus can't find 380,s because everyone has gone nuts buying every thing up
He's like, use this as a backup pistol... just wanna say that when it comes to carry guns, lighter is better and this thing is a featherweight, and 10 rounds.. yes please. gimme that. and for the naysayers, tell me one person you know that will stand in front of someone shooting .22lr.
What is the purpose of this pistol? Years ago there were many many small pocket size and easily concealable .22 LR semi-auto pistols and revolvers. For some strange reason many were discontinued or took about a 12 year hiatus on production. That couldn't have been more dumb by the manufactures. These .22s were/are very very popular and often sell 10:1 to their other pistols. Nearly everyone should have at least one and needs one. They are cheap to shoot and are fun. You won't find a better tackle box gun for boat and fishing than a small .22 LR semi-auto or revolver. They work great as guns for doing lawn and garden work and farming for the same reason. It's hard to beat one for taking out the trash and quick runs to town or to the gas station. They work great for pest control and fill that role very well. How many times have you been working out on your property and saw a groundhog, skunk, possum, chipmunk, gopher, rat, raccoon etc...etc... that needed shot and you left your overpowered .45 ACP in the house? I know a farmer close to me that goes out to his chicken coop to feed his chickens and gather eggs with a S&W 317 in his pocket. He's shot countless raccoons trying to sneak into his chicken coop and kill his chickens. Everybody should own a "smallish" .22 LR of some type. While the larger target pistols work great for competition and target shooting they are too large to tote around on a regular basis.
I’m really happy to see this gun in 22lr. What a cool suppressor host the little beretta 21a is. This ruger will have a threaded barrel before long. I love pocket pistols and hope we see more of them in 22lr as well as 25acp. Thanks for sharing.
Examining the rims of cases? 100yrd shots? Thorough review in general? Something TFBTV never bothered to do... They only like crapping on things that aren't Glock. Great review brother 👍 thnx!
I have this gun and its definitely fun and I have it for self defense as well I love it. I love the safety features on it too. Your review is my favorite on this gun thank you!
I like this gun as a carry..no issues after 250 rounds of Federal Gold Medal HV Match 40 grain..used 100 rounds of CCI stingers initially, and had 2 bad primer strikes..magazine absolutely sucks to manually feed, also the fact that I had to buy 2 extra. I only care about accuracy under 25 yards, and this gun is super accurate, and will stop anyone in their tracks..I have to paint the front sight soon, as it is harder to latch on target at dusk..I highly recommend this gun to carry once you find out it’s ammo appetite, and like trigger speed and accuracy for targets under 25 yards..
Thanks for letting us know. If you will, share your thoughts on the Midway threaded barrel. I'd certainly like to hear what you think about it. Have a good one.👍
@@ChrisfromGeorgia it’s eh. 😂 if you have an actual micro can it’s good, but all I have is a little dummy suppressor I put on it and was getting keyholes at 10 feet with cci target ammo. Tried using minimags and stingers and they worked ok. (Blame it on too long of a suppressor, bullet was clipping the inside and tumbling) Mostly I just use it to screw a little flash hider on the end of the barrel for fun.
@@The177Hunter Hey thanks for the feedback. I've had my mine for several years now and I really dig it. Sure, I've had some of the common issues many have, mainly ammo related ftf, but for what it is, I really enjoy plinking around with it! It is definitely a wonderful pistol for practicing. Personally, I wouldn't use it as my main edc, but I do feel comfortable enough with it as a backup/tackle box pistol. Lately I've been watching some videos and I'm considering getting some mods for it. I'm no firearm aficionado, but I enjoy tinkering. Along with kayaking, it's more or less a hobby I've certainly come to enjoy. Thanks again and I hope you have an awesome weekend. 😎👍
@@rugermader4485 In a pistol length barrel you lose a lot of velocity because the round was designed for rifle length barrel, Much of the poweder would burn outside the pistol length barrel. 22 wmr is difficult to get to properly function in a pistol. Most semi-automatic .22 wmr are really finicky with ammo that's why you see mostly handgun revolvers chambered for .22 wmr.
Good timing, getting my ccw in about a month and my sr22 is to bulky for conceal carry and I wanna stick with .22 ammo and I’m a ruger fan all the way.
@@R4MT1 I've had one fail to fire when I needed it the most. Never again will I use or recommend rimfire ammunition. This caliber can and will do the job but it can and will fail from time to time. Just passing on my experience.
2wheeled Demon I have actually maybe had 2 to 3 out of the many, many .22LR I have fired. I witnessed 3 .38 Special failure to fire from a 5 shot revolver. I’m not saying.22LR is the most reliable either, but if someone trains and feels comfortable it definitely better than a stick or even pepper spray.
Jacob Lucas I carry the LCP .380 myself, which I think .380 is a lot more capable than it gets credit for. On the other hand I would trust my life to the .22LR. Definitely better than a sharp stick.
Joeseph Dirt I have the same problem brother! My wife doesn’t even look in my gun safe anymore... she’s going to be very disappointed when I try to sneak another gun safe into the house lol
CCI or somebody, needs to start making a hot .22LR loading, designed to be ultra reliable, even if more expensive, and market it specifically towards self defense.
@@deasttn no. 22wmr is 22 magnum(22 winchester magnum rimfire). Different round all together.. But cci stingers and velocitors are EXACTLY what the op is trying to describe. More reliable, hotter round that is worth the extra dollar or 2.
Bought it for my daughter as her self-defense firearm. It works great and has no problem eating up Aguila, Cci,Federal Punch at all. 22lr is a legend for being under estimated. It will never get the respect from a particular group of people. Ever time i here the words Brady Bill,Sam Cook, and I gained more respect for the 22lr round. Not to mention my own self-defence event that happened to me......if its was good enough for me it should be good enough for my daughter. 11 rounds of 22lr with out doubt will get it done.
22LR has always been the round I chose for plinking and just having fun. Given the low cost of ammo compared to the larger calibers, I can have fun without worrying about the cost. This gun looks like it would be a blast to play around with. Still, I'm going to wait to make sure any initial problems, if any, are ironed out.
I'm thinking you might have problems with a suppressor due to the tilting barrel. If they made it with a fixed barrel like the sr22 this would be a sweet little host.
This will be a winner! Size is perfect for a .22 L.R. you can carry around and almost never know it's there. Ruger builds very reliable pistols. Not thrilled about the magazine disconnect.......
Agreed, When around house, such do yard work or dump trash, people are lazy to carry a glock anyway, this little mouse pocket pistol is perfect size and weight carry around home without notice anything.
@@jonboy9734 Good point. I stubbed my big toe getting into bed last night and it hurt! Took a few seconds to regain my composure... Lol But, I'll take that over a shot to the foot any day of the week! Ps. Whether 22lr, 380 acp, 9mm 40 cal etc. No wants extra holes in them. (Even in their big toe)
Im buying this for my Gma she has the Lcp 380 currently but she says it packs to much punch for her so ima get her the .22 and take the .380 off her hands and use it as a nice little backup piece
It's about time. I'm interested to see what the other companies response to this is. I wish khar would come out with a compact 22. There trigger would be nice on a ccw 22. Might be some engineering obstacles though.
Erin Simmons for some reason manufacturers have had trouble getting semiautomatics using 22mag. I love 22 mag though. It retains many of the features of 22lr while expanding its versatility
I know that I'm a year late but you never mentioned this model is named the "lite rack" and that it comes with a mag loader. This is made for the geriatric and arthritic hands. It definitely fills a niche.
The Glock 44 has its place for “training” to carry its center fire counterparts. BUT I do think Ruger did a great job with this one; I could do without the magazine safety though.
James B if they fit 15 rounds of 9 in a 19 I would really like to see a flush fit 20-25rd mag. The kel-tec managed 33 so I think we can expect more from Glock.
I herd tell if you start putting holes in people they tend to leave you alone so this is perfect self defense weapon for deep concealment and or for summer time...
I have a LCP not an LCP2 and not in 22lr just a regular LCP in .380 .I never thought I’d like a gun so small since I’m a big handed man I like my full sized Glock 22 but I live in Phoenix Arizona so I spend most of the year in basketball shorts and athletic shorts ,I carried my LCP everyday for 1 year straight even in the winter because of how much I fell in love with it ,the gun weighs even in .380 just as much as my wallet or my iPhone and is just as big as my iPhone X and with the advancements in both .380 and 9mm in the last few years I found it a great carry gun. There was a firework stand owner just 10 miles from me here in Arizona last 4th of July he was getting ready to close up shop and a guy with a gun ran up on him demanding his money the firework stand owner had his .380 LCP in his pocket he took it out shot the guy in the face 1 time and killed him , the bad guys girlfriend was his get a way driver she must have saw her man get shot in the face because she got out of her car and ran away on foot screaming lol. I’ve only been robbed once and it was while I was walking into a bathroom in Las Vegas a guy pulled a knife on me and told me give him what I had in my pocket this was years before I was legally able to carry so I didn’t have a gun on me but if I would have had my LCP he allowed me to go in my pocket I’m not saying it’s always a good idea to fight back I’m just saying bad guys expect guns to come from holsters not the pocket.
Mid West. Yeah ,I’m sorry I just didn’t want to respond if you weren’t asking me. I carried my LCP in the Ruger brand pocket holster that it came with I really liked it you can order them for like $10 if you don’t have one, I also have a Ruger EC9S that I carry in my pocket during the winter I’ve been using the Sticky brand holster and so far I like it a lot too.
You heard tell correctly. 10 shots dead on at any distance they'll leave you alone. If anybody argues that then ask if you can practice on them. Tell them to attack you at say 30 feet and you shoot em 10 times see if they'll keep attacking you. I think that at 2 or 3 shots they'll leave you alone.
The trigger broke on mine after 400 rounds. Sent it to Ruger. They said they repaired it and sent it back to me still broken. Sent it back again. This time they sent me a replacement firearm. Haven't fired it yet.
To prove the accuracy of this pistol, I put a short video on my Instagram page here - instagram.com/p/B6ybykMpaDD/?igshid=y5231wcpc1be
@Michael Jordan you're right, it's 150
Thanks big Guy! Any Man,Womqn or Child that doubts your word, is screwing up to start with! I mean , Really??
If the Plinkster can't do it..It CAN NOT be done ...if He does it, put it in ya pipe and smoke it,Cause it's a fact !
For pocketable self defence for dummies would you rather this or a ultra compact revolver by S&W . Maintenance , reliability , issues etch
So he hit at 100-150 that's not saying jack! If I hit at 50 that would prove a great pistol. I just saw plinkster shoot thru the barrel of another gun! The kids good!

Did it work i have seen mixed reviews
@@missouripatriot6926 It was ammo sensitive in the beginning, but after about 300 rounds it feeds and fires anything.

Jonathan Young same
Might have competition with the new glock 22lr
It's twice as small, twice as light, just as accurate, cheaper, and still holds 10 rounds like the Glock 44. No contest.

The glock seems to be more like a 19 trainer
Colorado Outdoor Adventures yeah to be fair it is.
neat little pistol it would be handy for the trap line.

Anyone thinking of carrying this for self defense should check out lucky gunners ballistic testing for .22 ammo. Super good info!

@@jonboy9734
Good point. I stubbed my big toe getting into bed last night and it hurt! Took a few seconds to regain my composure... Lol
But, I'll take that over a shot to the foot any day of the week!
Ps. Whether 22lr, 380 acp, 9mm 40 cal etc. No wants extra holes in them.
(Even in their big toe)
nwchamp321 I completely agree with your above statement though. Shot placement . That was my lame attempt with being funny.
@@jonboy9734
Not lame at all. (smile)
Your point was well made.
Im buying this for my Gma she has the Lcp 380 currently but she says it packs to much punch for her so ima get her the .22 and take the .380 off her hands and use it as a nice little backup piece
It's about time. I'm interested to see what the other companies response to this is.
I wish khar would come out with a compact 22. There trigger would be nice on a ccw 22. Might be some engineering obstacles though.
.22 lr bounces around the rib cage and is deadly
I'd love to see this,or something like this in 22mag! 😁
Erin Simmons for some reason manufacturers have had trouble getting semiautomatics using 22mag. I love 22 mag though. It retains many of the features of 22lr while expanding its versatility
Pmr 30 is looking good! In 22wmr
22 mag is a must have rifle if you ask me. Coupled with a decent scope. Many groundhogs and coyotes have met their end
22mag in such a short barrel will not increase the speed
Ruger should also make this in .32 ACP
Great review! Going to have to keep my eye out for one at the local shop.
Just order one, save your eyesight for your targets.
Where's my thangy! I need to load my stangers!
Classic ha!!!!
twiggss good one.
This thang is acrit....built for acrisy...love this guy tho
4 or 5 cents a piece ...... ahhhhh .... those were the times .....
I know that I'm a year late but you never mentioned this model is named the "lite rack" and that it comes with a mag loader.
This is made for the geriatric and arthritic hands.
It definitely fills a niche.
I have tiny hands and spinal cord injury so this would be a hood fit.
It’s like Ruger read my mind. I can’t wait
CCI Stangers will put a smack down on an aggressor as well.
You had me at “it holds 10 rounds”. Screw a Glock 44, if I’m only getting 10 rounds it should be this size.
This just made the glock 44 look like a paper weight
The Glock 44 has its place for “training” to carry its center fire counterparts. BUT I do think Ruger did a great job with this one; I could do without the magazine safety though.
Someone will make a higher capacity magazine.
Night Fury I agree, and the thumb safety in my personal opinion.
James B if they fit 15 rounds of 9 in a 19 I would really like to see a flush fit 20-25rd mag. The kel-tec managed 33 so I think we can expect more from Glock.
Cant get them in Canada but would be nice to shot love the little pistols
Be glad you can't get it, the LCP II .22LR is JUNK.
I herd tell if you start putting holes in people they tend to leave you alone so this is perfect self defense weapon for deep concealment and or for summer time...
Yes!!!! Especially in the head!!!! With 10 rnds and low recoil I'm pretty sure it'll have no prob ! Perfect
I have a LCP not an LCP2 and not in 22lr just a regular LCP in .380 .I never thought I’d like a gun so small since I’m a big handed man I like my full sized Glock 22 but I live in Phoenix Arizona so I spend most of the year in basketball shorts and athletic shorts ,I carried my LCP everyday for 1 year straight even in the winter because of how much I fell in love with it ,the gun weighs even in .380 just as much as my wallet or my iPhone and is just as big as my iPhone X and with the advancements in both .380 and 9mm in the last few years I found it a great carry gun. There was a firework stand owner just 10 miles from me here in Arizona last 4th of July he was getting ready to close up shop and a guy with a gun ran up on him demanding his money the firework stand owner had his .380 LCP in his pocket he took it out shot the guy in the face 1 time and killed him , the bad guys girlfriend was his get a way driver she must have saw her man get shot in the face because she got out of her car and ran away on foot screaming lol. I’ve only been robbed once and it was while I was walking into a bathroom in Las Vegas a guy pulled a knife on me and told me give him what I had in my pocket this was years before I was legally able to carry so I didn’t have a gun on me but if I would have had my LCP he allowed me to go in my pocket I’m not saying it’s always a good idea to fight back I’m just saying bad guys expect guns to come from holsters not the pocket.
Mid West. Who ?
Mid West. Yeah ,I’m sorry I just didn’t want to respond if you weren’t asking me. I carried my LCP in the Ruger brand pocket holster that it came with I really liked it you can order them for like $10 if you don’t have one, I also have a Ruger EC9S that I carry in my pocket during the winter I’ve been using the Sticky brand holster and so far I like it a lot too.
You heard tell correctly. 10 shots dead on at any distance they'll leave you alone. If anybody argues that then ask if you can practice on them. Tell them to attack you at say 30 feet and you shoot em 10 times see if they'll keep attacking you. I think that at 2 or 3 shots they'll leave you alone.
Just polish the edges of the magazine
Would be cool if they worked out a doublestack mag like in their new 380 LCP Max... It holds 10+1 as well! .22 should hold like 16 😒
The Taurus tx22 has a 16 round magazine. It is actually a really good gun.
@@krisn8820 Taurus will get you killed with its terrible reliable. Just spend the extra 100$ to save your life...
@@krisn8820 yes it’s a very good gun but not as concealable as the ruger lcp .22
This gun ok for carry protection. Not a gun guy but want one for protection. You're video was awesome thx
We need a "PRO" model with a threaded barrel, no safety and night sights
Hey Ruger!!! Pay attention because this comment is spot on 👍
greasyfingers
And no magazine disconnect.
@@scotteger6271 It's called the Ruger 45/22...
Ruger already makes that gun- model 3604
@@wethepeople8542 Yes
I ordered my mine after seeing your video
"I couldn't hit the broadside of a barn with those"
Which is really the broadside of a match box to everyone else!
The trigger broke on mine after 400 rounds. Sent it to Ruger. They said they repaired it and sent it back to me still broken. Sent it back again. This time they sent me a replacement firearm. Haven't fired it yet.
