Can't decide which 22 pistol to host a suppressor.

I want to take advantage of the 20% coupon while I can and get myself a 22lr pistol with threaded barrel. Options on Academy's web page are:
M&P22 Compact. Cheapest option. Shot a friends and his is quite accurate and eats anything you throw at it.
LINK
Ruger MKIV 22/45. 22/45 is always a classic.
LINK
Ruger MKIV Tactical. Actually prefer the grip angle on the standark MKIV over the 22/45.
LINK
Browning Buckmark.
LINK
S&W Victory. Only stainless option of the bunch but 5.5" barrel is more of a negative as a suppressor host.
LINK
Ruger SR22. Left it off because I prefer the S&W M&P22 compact over this one.
I like them all for various reasons I can't decide on which one

I'd vote Ruger. Owning both the S&W and the Ruger, its not even close, either. S&W M&P 22 was fun, but the quality of the Ruger and the accuracy were head and shoulders better. I have the Tactical but have shot the 22/45 with a can as well, you can't go wrong with Ruger.

Cant say a bad thing about my M&P compact, love that lil bastard.

I like the smooth lines of the 22/45 Lite with a small can on it. Plus it comes perfect from the factory if you wish to put a reflex sight on it.
If you’re going for cost savings, the M&P22 or the SR22 would be decent options. These you will likely be stuck with irons but that’s not really an issue if you didn’t plan on using a dot sight anyway.

22/45 with Tandem Kross kit is tough to beat
Posted on 4/18/18 at 10:03 am to Carson123987
give me the quick and easy,
and what can would be good for it with total cost out the door. If it sounds reasonable i might come see you after i get the trust stuff completed.

I have a MkIII 22/45 Lite with it. It's called the High Performance Kit. You'll need to check if they make a similar one for the MkIV

Make sure you get the Victory trigger as well. It'll be $145 or so for everything, very worth it. I have it all in + VZ grips and an RMR. It's like a competition gun lol. Running an Element II on it and shoot it in my yard (in middle of BR) all the time. Stupid quiet, lots of fun
if you go with something like the Lite in gray, itll be about $469.99. Cans are anywhere from 350-450 depending on what you like.

That thing looks sick.

So 1k. Looks like i might need to get in touch with papercut.

i actually like the browning better than the ruger. Owned both, sold ruger. Not saying it sucked.. its nice, just personally like the feel of the buckmark more.

ive shot with one before, a little finicky but worked fine for the most part
Posted on 4/18/18 at 11:10 am to DeoreDX
22/45 even though they are the biggest PIA to clean.

Got the stainless target model mark iv, but that lite version looks so nice. weighs just about half as much too lol

When is yalls next sale, i want one now. That Academy sale, if still active, is probably the cheapest option.

Guessing both of y’all have the mkIII? I held out because of that reason. The mkIV is easy to brake apart.
I would vote the mkiv for all the reasons listed above. Love mine. I have a sr22 with a laser for shits and giggles. Trigger kinda sucks. It fits in the hand way better than the s&w. Those are the only two of your list I have hand in my hands.

Thank God Ruger stepped up and figured out how to make breakdown easier. Those older models will make you want to rip your hair out.

Went with the 22/45 Lite for $414.14 shipped/taxes.
Now I have to decide on a 22lr suppressor Local shop pimps SilencerCo but he said he can order just about anything.
