Buying .22 LR Handguns online

A .22 LR handgun is the best way to learn the fundamentals and to practice without the cost or recoil of centerfire ammo. Choose from target pistols, trainers that mirror popular carry guns, and rimfire revolvers that are great for small game and the trail.

Pair it with a .22 LR rifle that uses the same ammo, and grab spare magazines.

.22 LR Handguns FAQ

Is .22 LR good for beginners?

Yes. Its light recoil and quiet report make it easy to learn trigger control and sight alignment, and ammo is inexpensive enough for lots of practice.

Is .22 LR a good self-defense round?

It is not a first choice. Centerfire calibers such as 9mm are more reliable and effective for defense. A .22 is best for training, sport and small game.

Do handguns ship to my house?

No. Handguns ship to the licensed FFL dealer you choose at checkout. You complete ATF Form 4473 and a background check there, pay the dealer's transfer fee and take it home. You must be 21 or older.
