Commentary: Colt deserves our praise for introducing the new.22 LR Wheelgun. Rimfire revolvers can be great. This Editor has a Smith & Wesson Model 607 ten-shot rimfire revolver that has fired more rounds than any of his other handguns. A.22 LR is great for training, and for plinking. This Colt.22LR wheelgun, like the Model 617 offers minimal recoil and great reliability. It also has a nice sight range, making it an affordable gun. The trigger pull is crisp and light when you shoot slow-fire single-action. This is better than most semi-auto pistols. This new “Baby Snake”, we think, will make a great addition to the collection of any shooter.
