Ten shots instead of six is the difference here. Chiappa's SAA 1873 in .22 LR holds ten rounds in the cylinder and has a 4.75 inch barrel. The finish is blue and black. It is a rimfire copy of the old Colt Peacemaker, scaled for fun.

The extra capacity means fewer reloads on a plinking day. Ten rounds go through quickly, but each one costs very little. A day with this revolver can go through a few boxes of .22 without hurting the budget.

The 4.75 inch barrel is the classic length. It balances well and looks right in a holster. Beginners can learn the single action routine without the noise and recoil of a bigger caliber.

It is also useful for a rancher who wants an easy sidearm for small pests. A snake in the barn or a rat in the feed room can be handled without much commotion.

The price is low, in line with other rimfire single actions. The listing says new. It ships to your FFL dealer for the background check.
