There's something about a solid steel rimfire revolver that just feels right in the hand, and the Rock Island AL22M delivers that feeling in spades. Imported by Armscor and built by Alfa Proj in the Czech Republic, this DA/SA wheelgun rides on the same mid-size frame Rock Island uses for its 357 Magnum revolvers, so you get real heft and durability wrapped around the mild-mannered 22 WMR cartridge. The result is a gun with next to no felt recoil that settles nicely on target and stays there.
The AL22M wears a 4 inch barrel with a full shroud that protects the ejector rod and adds muzzle-steadying weight up front. Stainless steel construction runs through the frame, cylinder, and barrel, giving it a clean, classic look that shrugs off wear. The cylinder holds eight rounds of 22 Magnum and swings out on a crane with a central extractor for quick reloads, while the lockwork keeps the gun tightly in time for consistent chamber-to-bore alignment. A transfer bar style drop safety adds peace of mind whether it's on your hip in the field or riding in a range bag.
Up top you get a fixed ramp front sight paired with an adjustable rear, so you can dial in your point of impact for whatever load your gun likes best. That matters with 22 WMR, since ammo can vary quite a bit between brands. The pebbled black rubber grip fills the hand well, including the gap behind the trigger guard, and the grip panels are screwed on and swappable if you ever want a different feel.
The 22 WMR hits noticeably harder than 22 LR and tends to run with excellent rimfire reliability, which makes the AL22M a great pick for small game hunting, pest control around the property, and serious target practice. Rock Island backs it with a limited lifetime warranty, and the single-action trigger breaks light and clean when precision counts. It's a fun, capable revolver that fills a niche not many manufacturers bother with anymore.
No, the AL22M is chambered specifically for 22 WMR, also known as 22 Magnum. The 22 WMR case is longer and slightly larger in diameter than 22 LR, so standard 22 LR rounds should never be fired in it. If you want a 22 LR option, Rock Island offers the AL22 in that chambering.
The AL22M is manufactured by Alfa Proj in the Czech Republic and imported by Armscor under the Rock Island Armory brand. It shares its mid-size frame and all-steel construction with Rock Island's AL series 357 Magnum revolvers, so it's built well beyond what a rimfire cartridge demands. Rock Island backs it with a limited lifetime warranty.
It's a strong fit for that role. The 22 WMR cartridge carries considerably more energy than 22 LR, and the 4 inch barrel with adjustable rear sight lets you zero the gun to your preferred load. The light, crisp single-action trigger pull also helps with the precise shot placement small game requires.
Practically none. The AL22M is an all-steel, mid-frame revolver with a fully shrouded heavy barrel, and that weight soaks up what little kick the 22 WMR produces. It's an easy gun for new or recoil-sensitive folks to enjoy, and experienced hands will appreciate how fast the sights return between shots.
