I own three .22 lr pistols two are buck marks and one ruger standard.
The ruger I would guess to be about 50y/o still shoots well. I bought it used as my first .22 pistol. Has to be one of the most durable pistols ever made. I would have to guess it has fired a 1/2 million rounds. I have never had to have any work done to it exept the take down lever assembly but I broke that it didnt wear out . It does show its age, action is loose, barrel/chamber is erroded but the triger is just about how they should come lol. Still will print nice but is no tack driver anymore
The next is a flat side buck mark I have fire that myself over 200,000 times however I have had to do much work to keep that one shooting though.It is still very accurate but is worn slap out. Whe you have to start welding on a .22 frame you know it has lived its life.
The other buck mark is a fluted heavy barreled target model and it has been fired at least 100,000 times and has seemed to held up better then the first although I have had to replace the fireing pin bushing/recoil spring bushing and the recoil bumper a few times. It is the most accurate pistol I have ever shot, 100yard gong all day long off hand and cans clays at the same when i do my part, in a machine rest will do better then 1/[email protected] 25yards. The thing I like about it best is it will do it with just about any thing that will fit in the magazine and that is critical when you feed it from nothing but boxes of 500 of what ever, it has never been feed anything over $2.50 a box of 50 not once. The last is that I go about 3,000 rounds before ceaning the bore and 1000 rounds before degumming the action. I will admit that after 6 500 rd boxes it will start to key hole one out of about 100 but all the rest will stay in the 8 ring at 15 yards. I know that I am claiming 300000 rds out of just those two guns but that is realy only 30 bricks a year over the last twenty. I have shot a lot more the that I have a glock 20 with over 60k rounds through it but thats an other story
