If we have to march off into the next world, let us walk there on the bodies of our enemies.
I have a 17-2 purchased back when they were reasonable (sub-$500 range). Until I got my silencer, it was my fav rimfire, but the silencer makes the 22/45 so cool. I do love the 17-2 with Aguila Colibris for plinking at deer camp. That's still quieter than the suppressed 22/45 (barely) and less danger of ricochets.

I really wish that I had bought more than one back in the day as my LE Distributor was almost giving them away. He said they had to take them to get the desirable allocated stuff back when that was a normal practice.
The thing has a very decent trigger, good sights, 8+1 capacity, weighs just over a pound and it will almost fit in your pocket. It shoots like a full-size gun back to about 15-20 yards and with standard high-speed ammo (no Stingers) it's accurate and reliable.
I would think a pistol like this would sell like crazy today, but what do I know. It didn't sell well the first time around for $200, but folks don't have any problem paying two and half times that much for a used one these days. I think there's currently just a single listing for one of each on Gunbroker.

The only thing worse than arrogance is false humility.
I've got a 2214. What my four year old shoots. Sold my 2206 to Tamara not long ago. Good garage guns.

You can get much more of what you want with a kind word and a gun, than with a kind word alone.
How about a 1961 125th anniversary Colt Frontier Scout, nickle, UNFIRED, in the presentation case. .22 Magnum, with spare .22LR cylinder.
I'll take a better pic...

A couple of mine. A 2nd Series Colt Woodsman finished in Roguard and NP3 and a Clark Custom Ruger Standard with a BoMar sight rib.
