    I don't know what prices are like in Australia but in the UK you'd certainly struggle to get anything of reasonable quality for that kind of money. If you can afford to shell out a little more I'd recommend a BSA Meteor, they've been making them for fifty or sixty years so you have to assume they're doing something right. They're good for little hands and easy to use/maintain.

    No seriously, that is a bad idea.
    Nope not a single round of Wolf has been fed into my HBAR, my Ruger Mini14 loves the stuff though.

There are no Identifying marks on it at all as far as the top of the barrel like yours with etching. I hope somebody here knows this gun.
    This is .32 and there is a similar one in .38, but there are a lot of small old guns like these for the poker folk. Some are worth a ****-ton of money well others go for around $100

    Seriously?!?!

    I may have to apply for my C, but I think the temptation to ensure it is in operating condition would probably be too great for me

    The Bushmaster AR I used to own performed terribly with Wolf.

    My bushmaster does good, but then I have a PWS piston.

    So my department recently allowed us to carry our personally owned AR's for patrol. Well needless to say I used this as an excuse to buy some new RRA uppers and lowers, and a new Troy Ind MRF-DI 7" Rail System. I will post pictures as I hope to have it finished tomorrow. Now I am thinking of getting a Leupold CQ/T in 2 weeks Damn nice sight. I'll miss setting down my first, a Bushy with a CASV-EL

    Wolf is steel, not brass so it screws up your chamber or something because steel doesn't expand like brass. I'm sure StukaJr will explain it if he pops in.

    Thanks for the heads up Createdeemcee, I'm going to order this.
    Welcome, I'll let you guys know how it performs.

    This is .32 and there is a similar one in .38, but there are a lot of small old guns like these for the poker folk. Some are worth a ****-ton of money well others go for around $100
    I'll post some pics for comparison. Just bought a new place so stuff is in disurray, ill dig it up tomarrow. It appears to have some damage on the wheel itself like it sat in a corrosive fluid for some time, but no other damage all cylinder chambers are intact and firing pin looks good. My luck it will be the 100$ one haha. But hell its another gun.

    I have put Wolf ammo through my AR. Didn't have any problems. Accuracy was fine. No jams.

    It is dirty but I like cleaning my guns. The G22 is sooooo boring. I'm going to sell it.

    Yeah. Just didn't do it for me. I like 22s but the G22 aint cutting it. Maybe get a Ruger or a Mosquito.
