Finally got this thing to work! Anybody have a suggestion on a rrvolver small enough for a small 8 yo to be able to safely handle? Thanks in advance

Cimmaron Plinkerton. Full size but easy to handle.
It'll last plenty long also without breaking the bank.

My nephew really digs his Ruger Bearcat I got him for his 10th birthday. It's "downsized" and fits him rather well.

Ruger Bearcat. The single action would be perfect.

Good job on teaching them young. I my little girl was 5 when I put her behind a marlin youth 22. Sandwich bag of 22's on the side. Bipod to hold it up. You would think you just asked her to leave a toy store telling her the ammo is almost gone.

Thanks for those suggestions. All mine atrted young on rifles. He has a crickett but really wants a pistol. I like the cimarron. It'll be like my .44!

Maybe a Heritage, they rust easy but I picked one up years ago that my dad uses now. He let it rust all to hell but after a little oil and some steel wool it was up and running again.

Also single action.

Only two .22 LR revolvers can be considered a "slam dunk" for youths.

(1) Ruger Bearcat.

(2) Ruger Single-Six.

Taurus makes some fine .22 LR revolvers, but they are a bit larger in the hand.

If you want a revolver instead of a pistol, Academy usually runs those Heritage single action .22LR six guns for about $100 on black Friday each year.
