Taurus Model 94 (22 Long Rifle)

[@johnstorie1394]

Summer of 1995, my dad and I took a trip to the local gun shop and he asked me if there was one .22 I could pick out which would it be, I picked the Taurus M94 in stainless, I was so excited and dad and I had tons of fun memories plinking with that little revolver. He had mentioned that around the same age he had a Harrington and Richardson .22 revolver. My M94 had beautiful Brazilian rosewood grips. I still have it but unfortunately something in the action got messed up, and I’m not certain to send it to Taurus. Would rather keep it as more of a relic now. Miss ya dad ❤

[@coxbuddy]

I saw a lot of negative reviews on the Taurus 94 revolver, but i went with your review and got one, so far , I love it, I would have preferred a S & W , but i paid 400 instead of 800 and i can live with the stiff trigger for that price! Thanks for the great reviews!

[@floock4289]

I watch Hickock45's videos not only because he know what he is doing, but he seems to enjoy himself so much.

[@mdredheadguy1979]

F Loock Agreed.

[@cavemanjoe7972]

I had to sell my stainless snubby stainless model 94 about 11 years ago, and when I could finally afford a new one, they had stopped making them. I miss that 94.

[@theKGB65]

There is just something totally relaxing about walking around in the woods with a pocket full of CB shorts, no earplugs, and a nice .22 revolver for popping any old target of opportunity. Having no magazine to fumble with is a treat when there's no bench to load from. Nice video.

[@profsat5]

Never seen a 10 shot.I got a 9 shot High Standard President Model revolver.It was made in Conn.USA back in 1969.I purchased it new.Still shoots just as good and looks almost as good as when I got it.I think hickok45 is the best shot I ever seen.

[@evapilotcas]

I never really had an interest in .22 pistols, but you completely sold me on the Taurus 94. Thanks for the video Hickok. I'm a big fan of your channel.

[@leefowble6333]

It always amuses me how some shooters continue to criticize revolvers that don't cost as much as Colts and S&Ws. I have 3 S&W model 17s, a 2 model 18 Combats, a K-22, and a 617, and a Colt .22 Diamondback. There's no arguing that they are all beautifully made, superb guns. On the other hand, I have several Taurus and Rossi revolvers, and some older High Standards and Harrington & Richards. As the old cliche says, any of these guns can shoot better than me. None have ever failed to work, and all have provided endless hours of enjoyment for my family and me friends. I look at guns like I do cars. An Aston-Martin may have lot more glamour and performance than a Mustang or Camaro, but dollar for dollar, the latter can still provide more opportunity for the average guy to have loads of enjoyment and still afford gas.

[@edgarroop3689]

I always enjoy your videos because you know what you're talking about, know how to handle guns very well, but mostly because you always have fun. And that's the main reason for heading to the range.

[@tiggerr42431]

I feel kind of nostalgic to actually see a 22 LR again. I also enjoy a Ruger Single 10 with a 22 LR for plinking.

[@JoeDurobot]

A .22 LR is a perfect gun to teach a first time shooters. Many times I see people using a 45 ACP or something like that with someone who never shot before.No wonder they get scared of guns plus they dont find it fun as they dont hit anything. With a .22 LR its perfect to focus on the marksmanship and you hit the target with your first shot.

[@tiggerr42431]

This reminds me of my childhood H&K 9 shot 22 LR. A very fun gun to plink with in the country.

[@Capri331]

I bought an M94 just over a month ago. Its used and I would say it was broke in well. I really enjoy shooting it. I just wanted to say I enjoyed your video. It was well made and fairly informative. Thanks

[@58manoa]

I did what David suggested , dremeled the chambers , polished with toothpaste , shot 100+ rounds last week , No issues. All spent shells dropped out by hand. Looked at some other Taurus revolvers @ gun shop and 38s - 357 , all had rough non polished chambers. Gun shop owner says Taurus has fit & finish quality issues. I will never get another one. With that said , the new Ruger revolvers has rough finish quality issues also , unbelievable! All my S&W's are smooth in quality & finish.

[@jamiesloan5902]

58manoa My buddy has 2 Smith and Wesson revolvers with off center barrels. You can see it with the naked eye. lol Bad in all of them...some just cost 4-5 times more for the bad ones...it's a mind trick that companies use on consumers. They think if they pay an outrageous price, that they're getting "the best". Sometimes....but not always true.

[@kalel01a]

Hey hickok45... after watching your video here, I went out to Guns and Leather and picked up one of these little Model 94ULs (2 inch version). Thanks for the great info in your video. Good to see Tennessee represented so professionally and thoroughly on KZbin. Keep up the good work.

[@58manoa]

my T94 repair came back repaired with a lighter trigger and now shoots well. No misfires. My T94 is blued and did not come off inside the chambers after polishing. I used an $8 electric drem tool.

[@hickok45]

@kalel01a , Actually, it starts hanging up after 10 or 15. We're still working with it trying to figure out where the problem is.

[@1986BNick]

If your looking for a good quality .22 revolver for a more affordable price,then taurus is up your ally. I got the Tracker .22 LR/Magnum revolver 992 model. It works great.

[@davidbreen4727]

hitting the gong with a 22 revolver is absolutely amazing,i do enjoy your videos, your honest opinion is very jnformational

[@tiggerr42431]

I had a uncle who liked Taurus guns. One of my favorite plinking calibers. I use a Marlin 39A lever and carried a H&R 9 shot revolver for 22 on many a hike. I canoe carrying a Ruger Mark III hunter that shoots great and is hard to clean until you learn the secret of getting that pin back into the grip at the end. It looked really good and I think you will enjoy it.

[@razrramonel4077]

I received 1 as a Christmas gift back in 1990, the one I have has wood grips, and a solid front sight, no red front plastic piece.

[@USMC-ParrisIsland]

Ah, the days when you could buy 500 rounds of 22lr for under $30.00! If only I had the foresight to buy several thousands of these rounds before the end of 2012. I still had a comfortable stash before the price gouging started. Nowadays, I look for bargains on 50 in a box. I remain confident that one day the price of .22lr will return to where they should be. Hickok, I like that Taurus .22; been thinking of buying a smaller version of the Taurus .22. My wife loves shooting the .22, as much as I do. Nice video Hickok. Nice, relax presentation!

[@Tinstar2]

I felt it coming and one day while at Gander Mountain, they had hundreds of the blue box Federal, 525 in each box, for $21.00 per box with a $5.00 rebate on each box. I bought about a dozen boxes and people were looking at me funny. I wish that I had loaded the cart up with as many as I could have afforded! Still have some and even a couple of red boxes of the 550 rounds. I think that the cheapest that I ever paid was around $11.00 per 550 round box. Ahhhhhh...the good old days!

[@USMC-ParrisIsland]

You're right, the "Good Old Days" are gone. We are now witnessing the "New Normal!"

[@jackwar8779]

In 1964, when I was 18 y.o. I bought my first handgun. It was an H&R 4" 22, great for plinking. The ammo in those days was $5.00 a brick! Bought them at the local Sears store!!!!

[@SaltyMaverick]

I WISH shooting a .22 (or anything, for that matter) was a part of growing up, for me. I'm 23 now, and I only managed to convince my dad to start buying some guns a couple years ago, after I began to take interest in them.

[@toddallen7714]

wow back in time been watching for years but not 13 years . thank you sir , nice.

[@svbarryduckworth628]

I've had one of these for 30 years or so. Mine is blued and has the old style wood Taurus grips, and doesn't have the Taurus version of the S&W Hillary Hole that the new ones have. This is a great little revolver and a good trainer for the Model 85 which I also have. I think the grips between these two are even interchangeable. .22lr isn't as cheap as it used to be back in the day, but it still isn't too expensive.

[@100RAmen]

u r so right about the can and 22 being part of american childhood... first time i heard of this shocks me, but the gunlics part of me was like america is awesome!!!

[@44357514]

I recently purchased a Brand New ROSSI .22 Long Rifle Revolver from the Gun Store for $299. It is all Stainless Steel with a Rubber Grip. The Cylinder holds 8 rounds. It has a 6 inch Ventilated Rib Barrel. They call the gun "The Plinker" and that is what it says on the left side of the barrel. The gun is also available in a Black finish. And as you probably know - Rossi is now owned by Taurus - and they also have the BrazTech Name on the Guns - which I think is the distributor now for both Taurus and Rossi Firearms.

[@clapforboobies5892]

Do you want an award or something?

[@therrienmichael08]

Could have given the gun shop a mention.

[@3ducs]

Got the same revolver used today at a LGS, mine has the oak tree wood grips. It looks good side by side with my S&Ws and Colts. Good trigger, solid lock up, perhaps not as smooth as the S&Ws or Colts but those are older more used guns. Hard to beat for the price.

[@medicoregaming1483]

I can't seem to find one anywhere

[@davidgcalderone]

I love .22 shorts in a bolt rifle. Quiet, and effective for small game, no hearing issues at all.

[@noquie1]

With Hickok in youtube life is always good...GB

[@Capt_Killingfield]

14:25 Same exact thing happened to me once, shooting my Taurus PT145 at an old tree stump. I took one shot, and thru my earmuffs I heard a hum. I looked at my friend and shouted, "It's in the air!" I then heard a thump in the sand, and found it maybe 6 feet in front of me, still spinning. I sold the Taurus .45acp and bought a 9mm CZ75b. My Taurus 94 has needed significant hand rasping, internal deburring, spring changes, and a new S&W yoke screw to get it to work.

[@hickok45]

@Walter45Auto , I think everything we shoot goes completely through those.

[@trombogon200]

Wish you'd try more Taurus revolvers. I'm a smith guy myself but I'd like to hear your opinion on the Tracker and the Raging Bull.

[@jonnporter6081]

I think a review of the Taurus Model M992 Tracker 22 LR/22 Mag would be interesting.

[@MrTheJaxie]

As usual, great, informative video. Nice to see so positive person. Thank you hickok45.

[@rogerlee337]

i love .22's such a fun gun to shoot and cheaply too

[@ThePedalDance]

"little bitty bullets" ..haha great. .22 short is the first round i ever shot in my life. great memories. thanks hickok!

[@johnnytastetest]

Hickok, I asked over a year ago for a 10/22 video! It's time to do one! You'll do a better job of demonstrating it than all of the existing videos, which is why we need it.

[@Ghost360MAFIA]

Looks like a nice one! You can't beat the cost of plinking with .22 either. Teaching my kids the fundamentals is much cheaper that way. I want to look at this model the next time I'm at the gun shop.

[@cribb6900]

Watching this Jan 2019...sure glad video quality has got better lol great video man. Always enjoy going back in time.

[@davegreene2031]

I just came across this video I've had one of these gun's for ten years and put a bunch of rounds through it and never had any problems with it I do love the Taurus I also have a Smith and Wesson in 357 love them both good video

[@hickok45]

@AirsoftVeteran96 , Yes.

[@7zobzombie]

Yep. I picked up a Browning BuckMark for around the same price as this one. ($300) And I love the thing. Can't get enough of the "Little thing" Even though it is a target model.

[@lmomechtech7709]

Thanks for the review. I just got a M94 in the 5" model. Fired it just a few cylinders and found the double action is very tight. Like you said, I hope it breaks in well. Have a good week!

[@sonnymontigny7194]

I'm glad Taurus has stepped up their game in the last few years! They"re putting out some good quality stuff now. I get tired of hearing people bash them for past mistakes. Even S&W, Ruger, and Beretta have had issues before! But they correct them. Like Taurus has been doing. Some innovative stuff too! Not scared to experiment! 👍

[@JerryEricsson]

I bought my wife a Model 13 Smith and took her out to the old farm I grew up on, now abandoned to teach her how to shoot. She surprised me and damn near outshot me from the get go with target .38 special rounds. The only thing she did wrong was to shoot an old steel brake drum, damn bullet bounced BACK and hit me in the leg. Made a groove on my lower leg that blead like hell.

[@90C1500]

Recently bought a Taurus M94 for the cheap ammo, 9mm gets expensive when you shoot 300 rounds every time you go shootin', The first time I took out the Taurus, I lost the yoke retaining screw assembly! The screw's on backorder through Taurus! I would love to see some more of the 94 in some your next vids while my gun is down.

[@hickok45]

@BearCIaw , The Federal seems very reliable, and I have not shot the Winchester bulk stuff enough to know. Winchester has always been good to me, though. The Remington is the with which we have the most misfires, depending on the gun. Sometimes, we get about one bad round for every ten. I will not be buying anymore of it.

[@Jeff3230]

We've been looking at that same gun for a while thinking of getting one. Cool to see you do a "review" on it!

[@doughesson]

Revolvers are so damn useful.If it's chambered for the larger cartridge,it can take lesser rounds as well.I use Colibris,.22 shorts,.22 shotshells,,Longs,and Long Rifle cartridges in my 94 with no problem. I've done paper targets,and critters with it but the most fun is that there is always some asshat trying to teach his wife/girlfriend to shoot with a .44 Mag.I hand him and her my .22 & she picks it up a lot faster.

[@HenauderTitzauf]

Thanks for the review, I appreciate what you do. I think it’s great that you can make videos of something you enjoy. This is one of my favorite pistols. Keep up the good work!

[@Flakey86]

Boy I shot a little taurus 94 at the range one time, had the stiffest DA pull I've ever felt, I'm sure the forcing cone was caked but honestly just the spring tension alone was pretty gnarley.

[@ChicChikBoom]

I think every gun that you used is pretty accurate, coz your that good. Man, I wish I can shoot like that.

[@moeshipley4170]

I've had two Taurus 94s, with 4" and 5" barrels. The 5" piece was an earlier model (mid-'90s) and suffered from numerous failures to fire due to light strikes. I sold it. The 4" revolver was made in 2000 and has been much more reliable, but the DA trigger pull is like dragging an anvil through a sandbox. They're not bad guns, but don't expect the quality of a Ruger or S&W.

[@559jgs]

I just bought the M44 w/8 3/8" barrel ,and I sure gave this .22 a long stare. maybe next week!

[@seabaron8794]

I had a blue Taurus .22 revolver 6 shot with a 3" barrel. I don't know the model, but it was cheap and accurate. It was also a gun that you should never dry fire since the firing pin would immediately be damaged. It looks like Hickock's stainless is ok with dry fire. I have used SW model 17 stainless revolvers in training and they also do not get damaged by dry firing.

[@hickok45]

@ArtisanTony , I do the same, but I might have made this one public a few minutes early.

[@pyrolowryder]

HIckock, I have to correct you. For many in the US, the .22 is no longer part of growing up... sadly, it has been replaced by electronics. We need to make our future generations aware of the outdoors, and firearms especially.

[@littlemog92]

Thanks for sharing your experience now I will know a surefire way to go about this if I ever work up the courage! I don't think I will polish my chambers I got a blued gun and it would be too easy to scuff up the rest of the gun. I read your previous comment and sadly I had the same problem used gun (taurus 94 2 in) after 1200 rounds the hammer transfer broke I had to replace it I think its that heavy hammer spring that breaks it+prev owner dry fire I lightened it hasn't had a problem since.

[@desirefirst]

@savagesanity my experience: bought a Judge and was disappointed at the precision and tightness of cylinder lockup for what it cost. the firing pin broke and Taurus was right on top of sending Fedex over, for free, to pick it up and send to Florida to fix it. got it back in 3 days!! fired 10 rounds and works fine but i WILL sell it. i'm pretty sure i'll never buy a Taurus revolver again. recently paid the extra to get a S&W 357 revolver and am very impressed with the workmanship.

[@chevy327sm]

Hi Hickok I watch alot of your videos, havent seen them all, keep it up best shooting videos Ive come accross. Anyway I got one of these 94s for my brother for his b-day. He picked it up and we shot it today, its got to go back to bass pro and be returned to taurus. Nothing works well and I was tired and my fingers hurt after 100-150 rounds. Mt brother maybe shot 50 or so and he was tired. I shoot 357s and 45 colts alot, 22 should be cake, not the case today.

[@therrienmichael08]

This is the oldest Hickok vid I've found. 6 years later he hasn't changed a bit.

[@stuartmarkman769]

I have a Taurus Ultra Lite 9 and it is great for a carry weapon . It is light weight and accurate.

[@Papieck37]

@tweezee Normal grains for a solid "head" is 40grains, HP are 36 grains, Subsonic are 40 grains, colibri are 60 grains and stingers can go either 36 grains or lower depending on the manufacturer.....

[@RileyReneau]

I've never seen him struggle to make contact so much kinda. Stressing me out. Making Hickok seem human lol

[@wick5449]

I agree that with close inspection you can see differences between Taurus revolvers, and S&W revolvers. However, in my experience, the differences are slight, and do not affect the usefulness of the gun. I have used several of each, and like both companies. If the Smith was 600, and the Taurus 500 I would go the extra, but the difference is almost double. Many will disagree I'm sure, and maybe their, or your experience has been different than mine. Anyway, enjoy your videos keep up the good work

[@TheMineBombSquad]

im most likely going to be getting this revolver in the next couple months i got to hold it at my local gun store its comfortable easy to shoot fairly high capacity

[@sapphirefile]

Perfect TEOTWAWKI gun. One of those, a Marlin 39A, and you're set. Gotta love the fact you can carry 2,000 rounds on you at a time, not to mention the countless hoarded bricks of .22 back at the house.

[@chrisreynolds3138]

Seeing all that 22 reminds me of the good old days lol. Now that ammo on the table would sell for more than the revolver shooting it here in St. Louis.

[@donball5918]

I've owned and used a Taurus Model 94 (4' barrel; blued steel; hard wood grips) since about 1993 and have thoroughly enjoyed it. Granting that the action is certainly not as smooth as a S&W K-22 (after, you get what you pay for), it is nonetheless a pleasure to shoot and has always been both reliable and accurate. Speedloaders (manufactured by HKS) are available for this gun and do much to facilitate rapid reloading when necessary. In my opinion, this revolver (in concert with easily carrying 200 or so lightweight rounds) would serve well as a convenient survival weapon entirely suitable for small game.

[@clapforboobies5892]

Wow a 4' barrel? I think you mean 4".

[@donball5918]

Yes, indeed, there's one in every crowd.

[@jamiesloan5902]

Don Ball WOW!!! I've NEVER seen a 4 foot barrel on a handgun! Must be a handful....lol

[@archiguitarchi]

@7zobzombie My point was that there isn't much difference in cost between some of the semi's and the revolvers, but coincidentally I just bought the 6" Taurus Tracker .22 and totally love it. The quality is superb and it is dead-accurate. We are seniors and the Taurus is the first hand gun my girlfriend ever shot. Not only did she shoot well but is eager for our next range session. Yes, revolvers are cool too.

[@vulpixgrant]

I must have got semi lucky with mine. I had one with a bad batch of cylinders. They drilled for the Magnum round, so firing the LR the cartridge expanded and was almost impossible to eject with the star in the cylinder. Took 2 months, but I got it back and it's been shooting fine ever since. The cylinder lock up is... Well it's sloppy as hell for 4 of the 9 rounds, but so far no issues. IF you can afford it, S&W have great revolvers. But you could buy 2 of these for the S&W's prices new.

[@nodresiak]

I just sold a model 941 in .22 magnum. I bought a Ruger MK II 22/45 to replace it. It was a wise decision because that little Ruger is a blast to shoot and a good deal more accurate than the Taurus model 941. The heavy double action trigger pull makes it too hard to hit with and the 22 magnum ammo is a little on the pricey side for large volume plinking. If you must have a revolver spend a little more and buy a Smith & Wesson.

[@Chinstero]

Got up at 4am just to watch hickok's new video. I'm dedicated.

[@KingYaba]

German Sporting Guns makes a 1911 in .22lr which has be excited. I've read good things about the firearm so I can't wait to get my hands on one.

[@Pro2AGuy]

Never tire of Hick's material (even the so called "vintage" stuff in these Hi-Tech times) and I happened to run across this when I was researching my Taurus 990 SS. Fine gun to be sure. Yup, "those were the days" before the "22lr insanity" hit...Now my gun costs $400+ and 500 round box of ammo is lucky to be had for less than $40...? Whiskey Tango Foxtrot! Anyhow it is what it is but .22lr is as "Americana" as it gets so people will buy it until their last breath to be sure...BTW, I know I say it all the time, but MAN am I jealous of you Gents that have their own range/property and don't have to travel like it's a freaking vacation to find a good outdoor range...Indoor ranges anymore are a dime a dozen in big urban "NORMAL" American Cities (which I patronize and appreciate) but outdoor ranges are another thing all together.

[@jeffreylocke8808]

I liked your GP100 22LR video. And yes Short, Long's and Long Rifle will fit in and ignite through the chamber into the barrel and out. Got it and love it so thank you. The S&W 617 full lug barrels are a little too muzzle heavy for me. Half-lug barrel on GP100 22 LR is more to my liking.

[@scuds03]

When I was a kid I went from Red Ryder BB gun to Benjamin Pallet gun to the good ol .22LR haha.

[@Popeye78382]

Man, just look at all that ammo. Sure can't wait for the day that it is available in sufficient quantity so that I can afford to buy that much.

[@TheGhillieMarine]

i like this vid also im a huge fan of you, Hickok45

[@davidjanuszewski5020]

I have used a slotted dowel in my drill wrapped with 600 grit wet/dry emery paper, then finish with tooth paste on the used emery. 30 seconds should be enough polish time.

[@covenant11]

More Taurus please?? They are cheap and everywhere and yet, so often hated on. Show us why Mr. Hickock45!!!

[@58manoa]

part 2 of 2 Repair was faster per cust service. I said OK to repair, 3 X to range , no issues yet. Pull is much lighter but shells still get stuck in cylinder after being fired. I assume it heats up and expands. I want so much to like it but the reloading sucks when shells get stuck in cylinder. It requires I slap it against wood shelf to clear them.

[@GunSam]

Yes,charter arms pathfinder has a version with a LR and a Mag cylinder DA revolver.

[@thenorthwoodsFH]

my grandpa smokes the same cigars "romeo y juliet" them boxes come in handy for just about everything!

[@adaman04]

I bought a blued 4” 94 for a loaner gun for my CCW classes and knock on wood, it’s been a peach. I was looking at a S&W 617 but as you said, about twice the price and if it were anything other than a .22 I would have gone Ruger or S&W. Several times I’ve emailed Ruger and asked them to produce an 8-10 shot .22 LR double action. We need to send about 50k emails asking for it and maybe we’ll get somewhere!

[@Tyrfingr]

I used to plink away at cans, bottles and small plastic army figurines as a kid with the Walther model 2 .22 rifle that i still have over here in Sweden. Still as far as handguns goes, we're pretty screwed on that deal, have to be an active member in a shooting club to get the license to own one.

[@ArtisanTony]

I always make my videos private until they process. I guess everyone does this but I thought I would mention it. The quality of your videos always makes up for KZbins shortcomings :)

[@david37922]

Glad you got it re-posted, great video!

[@3cl3c71k0r]

I've used those three bulk .22s. It seems to me like the Federal and Winchesters are extremely similar. They might even be made on the same machines. They're accurate and reliable; the only problems I've had have involved a Ruger Mark 2 with a weak striker. The Remingtons, however are foul. They're dirty, inaccurate, and inconsistent. I can hear the difference in powder charge between the shots.

[@BradYaeger]

Thanks Cliff, I appreciate that .

[@M4TT4TT4CK]

yes, same goes for ammunition, so if your buying .22's for a rifle you can be 18 but if they are for a handgun, you must be 21

[@jamesrodz]

I own this particular model, the gun does feel solid in your hand. Personally I think the trigger is a little on the heavy side. I've shot a wide range of rounds from a super colibri cap to a 60 grain 22.

[@KiwiPowerNZ]

In New Zealand I plink away at tin cans with a .177cal air rifle. The little lead pallets can still go in and out of a tin can at 60m. Not particular accurate though.

[@dphitch]

Another nice video. You've got to love those Walmart ammo prices. I don't think the 9mm fed and.22 fed prices can be beat anywhere. I've got a few .22 but no revolvers. I will have to add it to the list. Taurus is also making a 5mm in the same model revolver.

[@flokijhdfjkvnhsdfjkl]

I have the 94 in blue and Brazilian hard wood grips Love this weapon . Oh and HAPPY NEW YEAR hickok45 have a good 2014

[@1guyin10]

.22 BB is hard to find, but Academy Sports and others carry the .22 CB. CB long is the most common, but CB shorts are not impossible to locate. I have a bullet trap set up in my basement so on rainy days I can step down there with one of my revolvers and a box of CBs and plink away.

[@mr.didymus3611]

Got the same with a 2” barrel. Lots of fun!

[@PatriotsNFL1]

Cool new revolver Hickok!

[@jarkoer]

Definitely do not try shooting a magnum through an LR cylinder, but they wouldn't fit anyway. Get a convertible (or as some call them "combos"). Ruger makes a great convertible in the Single Six. Some have complained that the Taurus convertibles are a bit stiff. Though, honestly, there's absolutely NOTHING wrong with a Heritage Rough Rider convertible. They're cheap, but I have never had a problem with one... unlike the more expensive Taurus Tracker.

[@AllGunsConsidered]

Way to start shooting young man. I'm 17 and shooting is an undying passion for me!
