ShadowCatcher Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Howdy folks, I'm suffering with a bug right now - I've got a craving for a USFA Plinker .22/.22mag in a 7.5" barreled version. If any of you out there have a new/mint version you're tired of, or know where I might find one, I'd be interested in talking to the owner. I've been thinking I'd like a full sized .22, and as far as I know only USFA has one, but if there are others out there please advise . . . . .. I have a pair of Colt Peacemakers in both calibers - they're sweet - but promised to my sons now . . . . Local to Seattle is a plus, but wherever and whenever . . . .

Texas Jim Henry, SASS #20616 Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Howdy, SC - You might want to specify if you want the six-shot or twelve-shot version (if it makes a difference to you). I have the six-shot 5½" Plinker and it is a truly fine firearm. And, no... it is not for sale. Regards, TJH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards, TJH Thanks Pard - You're right - I want the Plinker, not the 12/22 that they also advertize . . and yes - I'm envious! SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Dog, SASS #20401 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 The EAA Bounty Hunter 22 is full size and ye kin buy about 3 of them new for the price of a used USFA Plinker. Don't get me wrong, The USFA is worth the extra money, it's just that I am cheap. I was the first pard to shoot TJH's 22 plinker at Buck Creek and it is sweet, just a little steep for me.

Howdy, LD - I remember loaning my Plinker to someone for a .22 side match, but had forgotten it was you (a mind can be a terrible waste!). It was truly "fresh out of the box" at that time. It has since made a trip to Alan Harton in Houston for a tune-up. If you think was sweet before, you'd be seriously drooling if you shot it now.

Regards, TJH Oh man - you're a tease. . . . I have other .22's, lately I have developed a Jones for this .22 . . . I'll keep waiting . . . .
