Smith & Wesson SW22 Victory

Post by Darrell »

Has anyone on the forum got experience with the new Victory pistol from Smith & Wesson? I got to handle and dry fire one Saturday night, I was rather impressed. Been thinking on a new .22, maybe this is it. Prolly test drive one next weekend.

Perhaps it'll be this year's BAG Day gun.

And yeah, before someone else says it, looks like a Buckmark and a Ruger Mark # had a baby. :roll:

Looks more like a Browning Challenger.

And it's butt-ugly. Looks like the bastard child of a Challenger and a Dardick.

I was thinking the spawn of a drunken tryst between a S&W 22A (the grip) and a Ruger MkIII.

That's not a Victory, THIS is a Victory.

Personally, in guns beauty is as beauty does. If it's accurate and reliable, I don't care if it looks like a turd. If it's a jamamatic you couldn't hit a barn with from the inside with the door closed, it doesn't matter how pretty it is.

I don't know, Randy. I think your mouth just wrote a check. Let's see if your posts and photos can cash it. :D
Note to self: start reading sig lines. They're actually quite amusing. :D
