The cheapest way to learn single-action shooting is a rimfire revolver you will not be afraid to shoot a lot. The Ruger Wrangler is a .22 LR with a 3.75 inch barrel and six rounds in the cylinder, finished in black. It is small, light and easy to handle.

That short barrel makes it a trail gun. Put it in a holster on your hip while you check fence or cut brush. It works on snakes and small pests, and it does not cost much to feed. A box of .22 LR lasts a long afternoon.

New shooters like it because the recoil and noise are mild. You cock the hammer, line up the sights and press the trigger, which teaches control. Kids and adults both pick up good habits on a rimfire.

Because it is cheap to shoot, you can burn through a hundred rounds without thinking about it. That practice builds skill you can carry to a bigger revolver later on.

The listing is for a new revolver. It ships to your FFL dealer for the background check.
