The 10 GREATEST .22LR Pistols Ever Made — One Was Designed by a Blind Man

One of these .22 pistols was designed by a man who was completely blind. Another was the silent favorite of Mossad assassins. And the pistol at #1 started life at just $37.50 — then became the best-selling .22 in history. The .22 Long Rifle is the round most of us learn on — small, cheap, easy to write off as a toy. But some of the finest handguns ever machined were built around it. In this video we count down the 10 greatest .22LR pistols of all time, from a gorgeous 1950s sci-fi failure to the $37.50 rimfire that built an entire gun empire. From Olympic gold medalists and Swiss precision jewels to a suppressed assassin's tool and America's everyman plinker — these are the .22 pistols that changed everything. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ⏱️ CHAPTERS ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 00:00 - The .22 everyone underestimates 00:36 - Whitney Wolverine 02:06 - Margolin MCM 03:29 - Browning Buck Mark 04:39 - Walther GSP and OSP 06:03 - High Standard Supermatic and Olympic 07:27 - Beretta Model 71 Jaguar 09:03 - Hämmerli 208 10:26 - Colt Woodsman 11:49 - Smith and Wesson Model 41 13:12 - Ruger Standard and the Mark Series If you enjoyed this, don't forget to LIKE 👍 and SUBSCRIBE 🔔 for more firearms history and countdowns.
