Ruger SR22 It's Really Hard Not To Like This Gun - First Mag
The Ruger SR22 has what I like to call the baby Yoda effect. You can't help finding this gun incredibly adorable, considering how small it is. On the surface, adorable may seem like a negative thing depending on who you talk to, but adorable is a good thing in this sense if you ask me.
When you see baby Yoda, you can't help but smile. In comparison, it's tough not to smile while shooting such a small yet capable firearm, the Ruger SR22.

#GunsAreEssential #RugerSR22
I bought this gun 2 years ago for my daughter when she was 12. She wanted to shoot but the 9mm recoil scared her. She loves shooting now. And she say dad can we go to the range this weekend. Family 👪 bonding time. Its a good firearm.
Excellent work. You're a great dad.
Bravo to you, the family core is not dead yet, thanks to people like you and your daughter.
Everyone should learn how to shoot...good job Dad! It is hard to get kids to pay attention these days. My daughter just turned twelve...she can shoot a bb gun, a bow, throw knives and use a blowgun. When she isn't so scared, I have the perfect little 410 shotgun for her...the one I got 38 years ago when I was 5. Still has the bluing.
You win the father of the year award. My dad got me a semi auto 22 rifle for my 12th birthday. So much joy was spent with my dad shooting that thing.
Excellent Father and daughter time I have a daughter who is 12 and she’s been shooting my S&W22 Victory for four years! My 10 year old son on the other hand has been shooting it only 3 years but now he has a 15-22 and a Heritage Rough Rider mostly to conserve ammunition but he really loves loading and unloading it he finally shot my AR-15 this year and at 75&80 yards he can blast h20 bottles and shaving cream cans with only a Romeo green dot
I've had the SR22 handgun for 2 years and never had a single problem. Its an excellent warm up handgun and a great tool to teach new shooters...
I wish I could say the same. I've had a lot of feeding problems early on. Really hoping that clears up.
@@sorenpx did you clean it when you first got it? I didn’t clean mine before firing it, but after a few tripes to the range with it, my misfires have dropped to almost 0. My friend that started at the same time as me, bought a PPK and a Kimber 9mm and has had trouble with both. He’s looking to get an SR22 now after having shot mine a few times.
@@shanetoumey2835 I did clean it, yeah. Honestly, especially since it was my first gun, it's been pretty disappointing to have these issues. It's kind of like having your very first car be one that breaks down frequently. But hey, I haven't shot it in a while so more testing is needed. My hope is that it's an issue that's going to clear up with more use.
@@sorenpx mine wouldn’t properly chamber the round. I think it was getting caught on the little ramp (sorry I don’t know all the proper terms). Again though, after the cleaning and using it a few more times, it works almost perfectly now. YMMV of course.
Not me, I've had too many problems.
"Aww shut up peter" best words in the whole video.
Those are the best words in all of his videos.😁🤣

With the cost of ammo these days, I limit the use of my defensive handguns at the range. That’s when I break out my SR-22 for some fun and cheap shooting. The SR-22 has been a reliable and fun gun to own.
My buddy actually had to use his to defend himself. At a gun range. It worked. Do not underestimate a 22.
You gotta give is details I'm wondering about what happened now.
I'd love to hear how this went down. details?
Please tell me the story in a way that doesn’t shatter my world view
What’s the dl
Bruh can you get back to us
I used to own a Mark 4 and currently have a 10/22. Love both. Ruger makes great guns.
@@davehart7943 No, but I tried an LCP Max at the indoor range. It was just OK
This was my first semi auto pistol, still love it and shoot it a ton
Same 👍
@@psyberwolf4514 same but now I use it to practice more along side of 9mm because of the cost of ammo
same
I trained my kids about gun safety and shooting on this gun. After all of the times they shot it learning...I still think I've shot it more. It's also in my carry rotation when I have to wear a suit.
Same.
Best way I remember the safety for this gun is “red you’re dead”
Ive owned one for years and have had success with 15rd mag extensions too
I almost bought some of those, but losing the last round hold-open was a deal breaker. Have they fixed that?
@@Kattbirb Sometimes if you get it dirty enough mine won't hold open. That was when 1000 rounds in 1 sitting was viable and cheap.
I got one of these a month after they hit the market...i have had ZERO issues with it other than occassional human error. Solid little gun and with good ammo it's super reliable. No kick and you can pop off 10 in a row center of mass with out even flinching...GREAT gun. Great video Colion, love it!
Love mine. Suppressed it is a blast. Glad I bought 22 ammo by the case and got it while the getting was good
You’ve been doing excellent work man and it does not go under appreciated
Keep it up brotha! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I think you mean unappreciated. Under appreciated would be the opposite. Ha ha.
Yeah these vids are great.
He knows the facts, excellent job for sure. Him and some others are doing their part to take all of We the Peoples stand to wherever that stand needs to go. Thanks
Love mine. I started my daughter and wife with it and it was an easy transition for them to larger calibers from there. It is still a fun handgun to fire.
each of my girls have one, great starter pistols
Like he said 22’s are just…fun.
Been shooting this pistol for years, best 22 pistol I’ve ever owned.
This channel turned me from pro 2a to an ammosexual.
Lmao
So you transitioned?
@@jpjp3873
Yes, I’m celebrating myself during pride month.
Bro I swear I see you everywhere Casey, we are low key destined best bros evidently we like and agree with the same stuff. Keep up the hustle my brother
I identify as spent brass
I have that gun. It's so reliable with quality bulk pack ammo!
Was about to ask what ammo he was running. You’ve answered the real question I had. I have a Walthe p22 and it only likes hot CCI
@@garyyockey8154 my old p22 ate everything I gave it since I went against the instruction manual and broke it in with stinger lol
@@garyyockey8154 blazer 22
@@garyyockey8154 yes. Picky on ammo. Don't buy it. Get a KelTec P17. Better in EVERY way. No shit.
I had a Ruger SR22; the second gun I ever bought. It became a real Jam'o'matic after about 500 rounds. Tried everything, cleaning, different factory mags, different ammo. I ended up trading it to someone for a tricked out Mossberg 12ga shotgun with 300 rounds of ammo (which I flipped for a few Winchester M12s)
Since having the SR22 and having so many issues, I haven't purchased any Ruger products.
I bought the full size M&P .22 for purely practical purposes. It seemed like a better home defense gun after I moved into an apartment with thin walls. I brought it home and very unenthusiasticly said, yay I own a 22 but it's quickly become one of my favorites. I even carry it sometimes as a self defense gun depending on where I am
Same here got my m&p 22 bout 8 years ago. Shoots smooth and all my friends dig it at the range.
When I use the sr22 on torso steel targets with friends from about twenty yards and all you hear is plink plink plink we all say damn that’s an attacker saying ouch ouch ouch take me to the hospital lol.
I've had my SR22 since they first came out, it still has "SR22 Pistol" marked on it instead of simply "SR22".
It's seen many thousands of rounds and has introduced a half dozen people to the joys of shooting.
If I could change anything on the pistol I'd add an ambi slide release and either flip the safety the right way or just make it a spring-loaded decocker. Either way I personally use it only as a decocker, as double actions really don't need a safety, and my personal example isn't a daily carry and thus isn't kept loaded while away from the field or range.
“The ergonomics are just so good” -Colion noir
“The safety is upside down”-also Colion noir
Ergonomics of safeties are unimportant because you should never be using them.
@@Matthew-sp5kv never is strong language. If it was true then don’t get a gun that has one-it’ll be on when u don’t want it to be or off when u do. Especially when upside down. Sorry but I disagree
Any guess for the over/under on when Ruger announces they all need to be returned to the factory for a retro-fit?
@@joeblincoe3122 just imagine it's a 92 safety but lower
@@Matthew-sp5kv economics are good, not gonna make you shoot better, but it’s just nice
That's my moms gun. Suppressor and all. Different suppressor but still. Kinda cool to see. Make sure you stack casing rims in FRONT of each other, just like shotgun bags.
Is it actually possible to stack them wrong, easily, with the way the Magnus designed?
What are rounds lips?
@@2whl4re Casing rim. Thanks for calling me on being retarded. Lol.
Have you had the chance to shoot yet?
Many, many, many times.
I’ve had this pistol since it first came out and I absolutely love it. It eats everything I’ve fed it suppressed or unsuppressed. It’s compact, handy and accurate. I’m just a little amazed that there’s nearly no aftermarket for it, it’s a helluva lot better than the G44 and is arguably more practical than the Ruger MkIV.
*This was my first 22LR, and still one of my favorites.*
I bought one about two weeks ago and I love it! Worked great right out of the box. I got it to carry when I just have shorts and a tee shirt on during the summer. It is light and easy to conceal, just leave the safety off and the hammer forward.
We like to go "plinking" with our 22s. Fun and cheaper than other calibers.
Love this gun. First .22 handgun and my kids have been shooting it since the youngest was 10 years old.
I showed my wife your grip! I said see where his thumbs are, that's what you need to remember! She is a work in progress 😁 Thanks 👍 Thanks also for your hard work for us! 👍👍
I love my SR22 with Q el Camino can. Such a blast to shoot and is my go to gun for teaching new shooters.
Sr22 was my first handgun4 years ago got me into guns your gone to love it man
My wife and I use this AWESOME little pea shooter as our EDC. LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS GUN
Thank you for using a Rooster when you said "decock"!😨
Thanks for the vid brother.
Be safe!🇺🇲👍🇺🇲✌️🇺🇲
This was the first pistol I bought. Years ago. I love this gun.
I can totally see myself riding the safety and engaging it on accident. As I'd likely not be using it for self defense it's probably not a big deal, but still.
Mhmm. Gotta pretend it's a decocker only. That's how I treat mine.
I think I simply don't want it for that reason. Would you buy an ar if the safety was backwards? It's a pretty big deal.
@@ryanwalker3509 I suppose my point being if I was down to a .22 for my personal safety it wouldn't be my first choice. It's a plinker and that's about it imo.
@@ryanwalker3509 If that AR was the most reliable semi auto .22lr I've ever owned like my SR22 is, I would deal with it. I happen to hate the 10/22's safety for example, but I still love it too.
@@evilblackcat6357 Your comment makes James Bond feel shaken, but not stirred.
The initial DA heavy trigger pull IS the safety in my opinion... skip the step of remembering which way to flip that switch.
I bought the SR22 years ago when it first came out. It was inexpensive, could shoot with it forever at the range with cheap ammo, and it fit great on my hands for such a "cute" gun. The accessories that came with it to make the handle wonder and an extender so I have somewhere to put my pinky, makes the gun so comfortable. I have fat short fingers and a big hand so comfort is important. Love this gun.
Great little pistol. Have the 4.5" one.
Thanks Colin for all You do to protect our rights!
Thank you to Colion as well
I would trust my life to this gun. I have over 2000 rounds through mine and the only malfunctions I’ve had were ammo related; failed primer ignition, which of course can happen with bulk pack 22lr ammo. But, being a DA/SA gun it has multiple strike capability, and a second strike will usually set off the round. It has both a firing pin block and hammer block making it safe to carry for those so inclined to do so. Besides that it is an excellent way to practice DA/SA shooting.
This was my first gun I bought and it is so much fun!
Few people remember the 22lr was the gun of choice by the old crew hit men of the mafia. It was a lot quieter and since they normally did head shots, and close up, it handled the job well.
You are correct. It's all about shot placement when it comes to any caliber but especially a 22. I like to go not for Central Mass but the soft targets like the nose the mouth the ear something that will get inside and just scramble the eggs
When I tried to get my wife interested in guns I got an SR22 over a Mark IV since its controls are more like other semiauto handguns than the 22LR target pistols. She agreed that it made for a great trainer.
Mark IV current i have the target version with engraved grip panels , my EDC is a Walter P 22. Modern Ammo makes pocket pistol true pocket pistols, hats off to you Colion for informative common sense reviews and your defense of the 2A
Mark 4. Love that gun. Best .22 everrrrrr🖤
It's $600 now
@@dovidkramer6573 Yaaasss I bought mine in Jan for about $600.
@@eboniduchess84 that’s expensive. You could get the browning buck mark for $400. I really think the mark 4 is a Beautiful pistol but it’s just too much money for a 22
@@dovidkramer6573 yes but I don't regret it. It was worth it. I have the Gold Edition. 😁
@@eboniduchess84 nice I think I'll have to stay with the buckmark or the s&w victory
You really dig that 22 don't you? So do I! lol. I want one.
Love mine with the Ruger can. Sweet little setup.
Bought one of those a year ago fantastic little Plinkster
Thank you sir.. You are my favorite gun owner channel. period.
Man listen... I bought one of those for my wife and I have a decent amount of fun shooting it suppressed!
I love this sweet like pistol too. It was my favorite until the TX22 came along. Taurus now rules the .22 pistol world.
I had wanted to pick up an M&P22 back when there was a surplus and they were cheap. Now you can’t find one. This video came in at the right time this afternoon to really peak my attention. The safety configuration looks like it will take a bit to get used to, but looked like this one worked for you.
Same, held back on getting the m&p 22 with threaded barrel a couple years ago now I can’t find one since 22 is so popular.
Awesome colin. Thank you.
@@natestain7103 I just looked at the Ruger and Cabela sites. The fact that this also comes in a “long slide” 4.5 inch barrel was neat. Cabelas has them prices a fair amount cheaper than MSRP.
My SR22 with the AAC halcyon is my fav gun to take out. Everytime I take it out to the local pit, its a crowd favorite. Made me love .22lr's again.
Don’t like that inversion safety but it looks like a fun range pistol
This was my first and only gun purchase so it’s normal for me, but I could see it being an issue when I start buying more.
Had mine about 10 years or so I still love it today and everyone that shoots it just loves it too.
Have been trying to find my wife a hand gun. Tried a 9mm, 380lcp, 38, and more. She had trouble with all of them. I was at a auction and was able to buy a sr22 ruger. She had no problem without. Nice gun and glad to see a good review.
It is a sweet .22! My mom has one.
I’ll stick with my TX22 suppressed.
Had 1 for years. Love it! It doesn't matter how dirty it is, or what kind of ammo is used. It shoots well every time. Easy disassembly & reassembly. My p22 jammed when dirty & was difficult to assemble because of the guide spring. SR22 is much better
clean your stuff dude
after every session
please
@@escapetherace1943 I like to do torture tests to see what they'll take and how dependable they are. Only certain guns though. The SR 22 performed very well. Much like Glock. G22 will take more than 3000 rounds before jamming, unless you use TulAmmo. Then it's about 300. That ammo is filthy.
Yea I bought one for my wife 5 years ago... SO MUCH FUN TO SHOOT!! Her step dad has a Walther P22, and its basically the exact same gun, just instead of black, it's green.
For those that are interested, tandemkross makes a +5 mag bumper. Great USA company and they design and make their own parts! I have them on all but 1 of my SR22 mags and they work flawlessly!
Bought one years ago, love it…my wife is trying to make it her own!
I think you need a his and hers. Just saying
I picked up an SR22 since they just came on the market in CA a few months ago. I love this gun so much. It's really fun to shoot, fits great in my hand with the extended mag plate, and it's very accurate. I have tried it with CCI Stinger/AR, Federal punch, and Aguila bulk pack so far and it hasn't had a single issue (500ish rounds so far).
5 years ago I traded my old dirtbike for this gun. I love it and would never get rid of it. In my opinion I think it's a great gun for plinking. Love my Ruger
I love 22lr pistols but I still prefer my Walther PPQ M2 in 22lr. Full scale pistol version of the 9mm model.
Keep it up colion Noir I watch everything that you post thanks for the gun knowledge
Love my SR22, very carry-able and accurate.
I bought mine about 3 years ago in the green color. I call it my fun gun. It’s so fun to shoot
“The Herman Miller of ergo chairs” now that’s what I can relate to !
Just put half down on one of these for my wife. Thank you for this video it helped seal the deal.
FYI See a company called TandemKross. They make a product that allows you to turn the ten rd mag into 16rd (where legal). Find Nic Taylor supply and use his springs they are stronger than the TK springs. Also, TK sells a SS guide rod and spring. Highly recommend this upgrade. The original guide rod is plastic and sometimes the slide doesn’t return all the way. I love mine it’s one of my EDC guns. Unfortunately this gun has been banned in California
Mark IV, bull or tapered barrel. I have the tapered barrel model. And it is accurate af, and fun to shoot.

The Spider on your head spitting out that Web 😂
Owned one of these a few years back. Sold it in short order. The trigger was less than mediocre. The 'reverse' safety was a non-starter for me and not something I wanted to become overly familiar with. It's a fun little plinker, but there are better options available on the market.
Meh. The safety was like that when you bought it.
@@ShepherdsSheepdog haha that was my thought do a little research before buying
The safety/decocker actually works the same as some others like many versions of.the Beratta92 and the Baby Desert Eagle III. This is a good companion gun and trainer for many users.
My daughter loves hers ! The wife really digs her TX22 from Taurus !!
This is the gun my girlfriend got. She isn't comfortable shooting 9mm regularly, so she went with this. It does feel great in the hand, and said really well. Now I want to get a suppressor.
True, the suppressor makes this gun look 'cute' but there is something to be said about the noise a gun makes...as an added deterrent.
It's hard not to love a ruger 22. Most of us probably learned to shoot with one. I know I did. Old ruger Mark 2 or a pak lite. Buddy of my dad's bought one and we went to shoot it. He couldn't hit side of house if house was on top of him, lol. I was 5 or 6 and could hit pony bottle at 20 ft. Guy gave gun to my dad and said give it to me when he gets big enough to have it. I'm 44 now and I still have it. Still runs like dream and is fun to shoot
Peter just stay on his damn left side😂😂😂
I have 3 of both (Smith and Wesson 22) of them… I trained thousands of folks with them and super slight advantage of my students with the Ruger… I’m a fan.
I have one of these and me and my dad went to the range and put 500 rounds through it out of the box😂 22s are so god damn fun
Great looking gun. I've had a Browning Buckmark for 35 years. Wanted something different so I picked up a FN 502 last week. May have to lookat that too.
I was fortunate enough to hold that same firearm at a gun show in Florida in May. I was able to get a full grip on it and it was quite comfortable. My only issue is that its a .22. Awesome firearm to own still 👍🏽
I really like mine.Accurate, Comfy,small,but not too small.Fits in back pocket of jeans.
A nice CCW when in low-risk environments.
The Ruger SR22 model 3604 (what Noir’s shooting here), is the first and only gun I’ve purchased. I bought it over a year ago and it has made shooting very enjoyable. I’m short and have smaller hands as well as little experience with firearms. This gun is easy to learn with and wasn’t nearly as intimidating for someone that’s new as a 9mm or .45. I can’t recommend it enough. One thing, if it’s a first gun for you, clean it before you fire it. Mine took a few trips to the range before I would stop getting regular misfires. If I had cleaned it before first use, I’m told this would have lowered the frequency. Also, .22 WMR despite fitting in the magazines and chamber is NOT an appropriate ammo to use in this gun.
I owned one it didn’t work had to many malfunctions.. I own Mark IV’s and love them!
I've had mine for about 8 years now. Can't say enough good things about this pistol. Eats ALL ammo, reliable, accurate, and very light. I've got the two tone version with a stainless bull type barrel, only draw back with my model is that it doesn't have a threaded barrel for suppressors. As for the saftey, I never use it. With the long trigger pull, I just leave it hot with hammer down. I also never use the decocker. I manually drop the hammer by holding it with my thumb and pulling the trigger(always in a safe direction kids).my only failure was when a grain of sand got under the extractor, causing it to fail to extract. Easy fix, probably shouldn't have been digging holes while it was on me.lol. I have shot the suppressed version with a larger can, very quiet. I have a lot of semi auto 22lr, this is my favorite.
I have the Ruger SR/22 and was able to take my CPL class with it LOL awesome gun.
The SR22 helped me qualify as a trainer for CCW handgun certification.
I have had my SR22 for about 5 years and I love it. I shot a handful of different 22 pistols before purchasing this one. It ain’t large, but not too small either. The ambidextrous controls have been great since I am a righty and my son is a south paw. It was great to have a good reliable handgun to teach him safety, stance and operation. Just got my first 22 suppressor a couple weeks ago and it makes this gun even more fun.
Love the SR22. Glad to see Colion do a first mag with it.
Been wanting to try this gun, now I just need to buy one, great video.
Absolutely love my SR22! Had it for about 8yrs now, and is one of my go-to trainers. Fun for me, awesome for safety training!
I wish they would make more 22 mag simi auto pistols.
I'm pretty happy with mine. Such a fun gun to shoot.
After watching your review, I want one.
Same here 😭😭
I bought mine when they first came out. I agree 100% ergo is amazing. I take it to the range everytime I go. Amazing gun the SR22. Have a great week.Go Ruger.
My first pistol years was a Ruger MK III. More recently, I picked up an SR9 as my first "concealed" carry pistol and also managed to find a MK III for a really good price.
Taking my wife out with the sr22 this weekend, hoping this fun little shoot will bring her to the light side!
Had mine for 5 years smooth as Ice and wonderfully easy to keep clean and awesome for teaching kids! And if some one broke into your home they would not know that it was 22 might be enough to make them think twice of course I prefer 9-10 mm myself but wife not really down with that recoil
what a coincidence to find this video: i just put 250 rounds through my ruger sr22 this afternoon. it eats anything but cci minimags are the best. my sr22 is my travel carry piece: easy to pack 300 rounds, 3 mags and one pistol in a small locked case. i often plink during my trips and 10 minimags consistently placed on-target is decent enough protection for my needs.
I picked up one about 4 years ago. For introducing new shooters to handgun use it is perfect!
Now the only issue is finding enough .22LR to feed it.😉
First thing that comes to mind when I see this? "Oh, nice Walther p22"
