I don’t think you can go wrong with any of them. Suppressors add more back pressure so I find it odd people need to tweak extractors when adding volqartsen parts to a Ruger series pistol. Perhaps it is an issue. I haven’t shot one suppressed much. The extractor issue sounds bogus to me so much to the point I have seen pistols with NO extractor and a suppressor attached STILL eject empty casings from the pressure of the shot being fired alone.
Know that the disassembly process on the buck mark is the weak point in the design - in terms of strength of the design. I would recommend the S&W or the Ruger simply because they’re stronger designs and suppressors can make the bolt have more thrust, and it would be nice to have a stronger gun. The buck mark is nice though and don’t totally discount it if you’re set on it. Many people seem happy with them because they haven’t shot a Ruger  Good luck |

I have two Rugers for my YHM Mite and they work great. The Ruger Lite is my favorite set up.

Out of a dozen or so .22 hosts.
The 422 is my favorite. |

The Ruger MKIV is hard to beat. It doesn't need anything out of the box for reliability sake but the Volquartsen accurizing kits make them really sweet shooters.

I have a SW Victory and Ruger MKIV. The Victory came with an excellent trigger unlike the Ruger. Installed an accurizing kit on the Ruger which made a huge difference but I still like the Victory trigger better. Fit/finish seems better on the SW too. I have to keep the Ruger oiled otherwise mild surface rust pops up.

Mk IV.
They're reliable out of the box, they're just convenient and affordable to upgrade, like a 10/22.

I've got a Ruger SR22 that I really like. Haven't put a ton of rounds through it so I don't know about long term durability but so far so good.

My two favorite pistol hosts for my SiCo Sparrow are a Ruger Mk.II with a Pac-Lite suppressor-ready upper AND a Ruger SR22 that came suppressor ready with a threaded barrel.

If you can find one, Keltec P17. Apparently there maybe a little more blowback of crap to your face due to the design of the slide. Havent shot one myself, but mine will arrive this week and they are getting great reviews. I shot my mp22c over the weekend and was very disappointed, problems left and right. That being said, I only used one brand of ammo. I do love the look and ergos of the m&p, so hopefully the bugs will work themselves out.

I wouldn't be at all concerned with your purchase.
Out of all the "trainer" 22's I have (which is basically all of them except the Glock 44), it is hands down the most reliable, eats anything. I thought something was wrong with the barrel when accuracy disappeared suddenly, and sent it back to Smith. 2 week turn around no questions asked, they said nothing was wrong with it. However, the accuracy was back. I think I let my barrel lead up too much, and clean it regularly now, no issues. Either way, the customer service was fantastic. I have 4 M&P's now... OP, out of your list, I would go with the MK4. You can just about add any upgrade you'd like to personalize it, and out of the box its a fantastic suppressor host. Still one of the most accurate plinkers I have after thousands of rounds. |

All great suggestions thank you
Seems the beretta would be impossible to use sights or hav an alternative sight set installed. Sounds like a toss up between Ruger smith and browning. Right now as we all know is a bad time to be gun shopping ( though 22’s don’t seem to be as badly affected as defensive caliber guns) so it may be a case of what shows up first. |

Gun issue, but I’m hoping it’s just ammo related. But I also purchased and installed new mag followers to hold 12rds instead of 10, so that may be part of it. |

Ended up with a victory. Got off gunbroker for a great price I think especially in these times ( all in with shipping and transfer $75 under MSRP)
About 40 bucks less than the best local price ( which was out of stock anyway) And about $150 less than a Ruger, which is surprising. Took to the range today,ran 100% even with standard velocity which I was not expecting until it broke in some. While I wasn’t shooting for accuracy exactly, it would easily hold inside the standard NRA bullseye target black at 50 feet and the sights were dead on for point of impact. Can’t really ask for much more in a gun under $350. ( although I still much prefer blued finish and wish they had a blue version) |

In truth, any one of those are good suppressor hosts and it comes down to specific examples and personal preference. The Victory and Buckmark have a slight advantage in the barrel change dept but overall the Ruger has a lot more aftermarket support. I don't care for the grip on the Victory and Buckmarks are hard to find around here. I like the aftermarket support for the Ruger so I settled on the 22/45 MKIV myself.
Quote HistoryHoly crap dude, what it that a 1.5" barrel?! lol I've been wanting to pick up a new upper and have it cut down but wasn't thinking that short. I have read that going too short on these can introduce issues. Have you had any? How's the accuracy? Who did the work? Thanks |

Another vote for the Ruger MkIV 22/45
Mine has been flawless out of the box, and the best news is they are a ton easier to take down and re-assemble these days!  |

All great choices.
Agree with above on the choice and why people “upgrade” the Mk4. It’s easy and cheap and I like to tinker with them. My Glock 19 is stock. Any rate. Also factor into your choice o how easy it is to break down and clean because with 22 and suppressed, you’ll be doing that all the time. To me mk4 gets all those boxes checked. |

Shoots great with CCI SV but gets dirty faster than my regular MKIV Lite upper. I shot it when it was like 20 degrees and it hated the Aguilla and Federal bulk pack but it was cold and really dirty.

The victory continues to impress with accuracy and reliability
I even purposely tried to ge it to choke with junk ammo but it still ran ( junk ammo- we run a steel challenge match a few times a month at my club and I pick up the rounds that others drop during malfunctions mostly low quality Winchester Remington and federal- during the course of a match I usually end up with about 50 grubby rounds to fill a box- and it ran them all.) |

I shoot Buck Marks suppressed, mostly because I have Ruger Derangement Syndrome. Quiet but they can get foul fast like all suppressed guns (enough suppressed shooting can choke a USP after all).
