I recently got a Taurus 942 22LR and was disappointed that SpeedBeez and most of the other manufacturers did not have a speedloader or loading block for it. 5 Star had a twist type one, but I really like the SpeedBeez platform.
Well, I found one on eBay that has the speedloader and two types of loading blocks available and about 1/2 the cost of the SpeedBeez.
I have no affiliation with this vendor and I have no dog in the fight other than I think other people with Taurus 942 (or Charter Arms Pathfinder II) would like it. It is a 3d printed version similar to the SpeedBeez. I will be getting one soon.
My new Taurus 942 3" 22 LR
I have been searching for a .22 so I can afford to go to the range and practice. They only had one .22 revolver, the Ruger Wrangler. Since I can rent more guns for the one price, I thought I'd try the Mark IV. While I liked the Mark IV better than most other semi autos, I still am way better with a revolver for some reason. So I've decided to get a Taurus 942 22LR 3" Stainless to practice with. It will be the little practice brother to my Taurus 66 .357 Magnum.
I want to get a 22LR revolver. I don't want the 22 Magnum.
I am liking the Taurus 942 and the Ruger LCR. The guntubers generally praise the Taurus.. and I'm debating about the Ultra Lite or not.. but the LCR is pricey right now and a little scarce. I can get a used one for about $480 but I can get a new Taurus for about $100 less. The main purpose is for plinking at the range.
I absolutely love my Taurus 66 SS4, but .38 special and especially .357 Magnum is expensive. The cost of ammo is my second reason.. and I want a small revolver for my wife to learn on. She tried a Shield 380 EZ but we decided we don't care for semi autos.
I've been trying to get this answer out of Amazon or Google AI and it misses every time. What I want to know is this: How far does the inserted part of these devices go into the barrel? From looking at the pictures of these devices, I can't determine if it is going to insert too far into the barrel of something like a Ruger LCR 22LR which has a slightly less than 2" barrel. My concern is that it would seat itself too far and interfere with the rotation of the chamber wheel.
I was at my range today and asked about small revolvers (mostly for my wife to use) but also that I could easily carry if I get my CCW permit. Anyhow, he showed me this pre Hilary hole S&W 317 Airlight for sale for $449. Is that fair? It seems like the gun was in decent shape, the timing looked good, it didn't rattle..etc ..
This is how I set up my revolver for dry fire laser training. I believe it will also work for 9mm semi auto, but I don't have one to try. As long as the bore laser doesn't interfere with the action, it would be ok.
This is a Taurus model 66 SS4 4" barrell 7 shot 357 Magnum
I have a Gortar laser bore site laser trainer and a strong tools target. Best $70 I ever spent. This is absolutely helping my aiming at the range.
So, I took my first gun to the range for its initial shots. I'm a brand new shooter and this is my 3rd ever range visit. I started with .38, then some +P and finally some 357 Magnum. Love this gun!!! None of these rounds were too much for the gun.. or for me. This little video is the first shots. I am very happy with this choice. 😁
Tomorrow will be my 3rd ever range trip, but the first one with my first gun, this Taurus 66 SS4. I'm eager to try the .38, the .38 +P and the .357. I have only shot .38 with a borrowed Ruger GP100 and some 9mm with a Glock 17 and a S&W M&P 2.0. Exciting new experiences for me. Let's Gooooo!
