The .22 Magnum wasn't invented until the 1960's, so any "1871" handgun chambered for it is a reproduction.

Can you shoot a 22 mag out of a 22 lr?

Some revolvers are capable of firing both cartridges, simply by replacing the cylinder. Not all revolvers can do this, however. As for a dedicated .22LR firearm not fed from a cylinder, the answer is going to be no.


Can you shoot 22 long rifle in a 22magnum revolver?

Absolutely Not!!! Unless it has the cylinder marked for .22 LR.I own a few HS-21's .22 Mag/.22 LR Revolvers,which has both cylinders and I have to change them for what im shooting.If you shoot a .22 LR in a Mag Cylinder the case will actually split open causing gasses to escape and possibly hurt you or your gun.This is because the .22 LR has a smaller case diameter,and when shot it expands...Dont Do It!!!...If you want a .22LR cylinder go to Numrich.com (AKA e-gunparts.com)most manurfacturers made the conversion cylinders for revolvers and most can be bought for around $50...

Can a 22 long rifle be chambered in a 22 mag rifle?

With the exception of a few revolvers made with interchangeable cylinders, the .22 LR and .22 magnum cartridges should NOT be substituted for each other. The .22 magnum is a larger diameter cartridge than the .22 LR. Firing a LR cartridge in a magnum rifle will result in a split cartridge case, venting of gasses, etc. They cannot be traded with one another.
