Thoughts on 22 cc revolver for wife

[Knight 1]

My wife is a very small older lady under 100 lbs and wants a small 22 LR revolver to carry and learn with and she doesn't want the "open trigger" style. I know of the S&W 632 and 317 but not of much else. She wants a short barrel and something we both could take out for fun. Any help would be appreciated.

There isn't a whole lot out there - most folks shooting 22LR are doing so for several reasons, but what you're aiming for isn't one of the typical mindsets. They're either going for the "smallest" firearm they can get (but it won't have a trigger guard, something you want) or they're looking for a training/plinking/etc firearm, which won't be a concealable firearm. There are somewhat more available smallish semi-auto 22s, but that doesn't help the revolver part..

Free bump, maybe some other revolver aficionados will see this..

Your prayers have been answered.

Exactly what you are looking for:

Ruger® LCR® Double-Action Revolver Models

The LCR's are great wheelguns.

The LCR's are great wheelguns.

Indeed...would have to vote for the LCR in .22lr as well

The lasergrips are worth their weight in gold for defensive shooting. you can even hit the target without your glasses.
Change the batteries twice a year and they'll never be dead when you need the laser.

S&W 34

Nice in 1, 2 or 4-inch barrels, and the quality is excellent!

just get a taurus 22 mag snubby....no recoil and a little more power...not as cheap to shoot... these hold 8 rounds or if you want a cheap shooter get the 22lr version of this
Taurus 941 .22mag 2" Blue $334.00 SHIPS FREE

here is the 22lr
