[QUOTE="TallPrairie, post: 2849461, member: 7815"] Agree. The Ruger SR22 is a quality gun with two significant flaws: (1) The manual thumb safety works backward from the 1911 and nearly all other guns. Up is FIRE, and down is SAFE. That's confusing. If you ever carry a 1911 or other manual-safetied gun for self-defense, I would never buy an SR22 because the backwards safety will mess up your muscle memory. (2) It's a conventional DA/SA gun that can't be carried cocked-and-locked, and the initial double action trigger [U]sucks[/U]. Creepy, unpredictable, heavy. The single action trigger for follow-up shots is fine, and the gun seems mechanically accurate, but I just couldn't manage that DA trigger accurately -- lot of first round flyers. And I am a revolver guy who tends to shoot DAOs well. These two flaws ultimately led me to bypass the SR22 for the S&W M&P 22 Compact, and I remain happy with that choice. Good trainer and plinker. Made in USA. [/QUOTE]
