    Nice little gambling fight gun … of course, pressed against the temple of a jihadi, it will earn its value just as well.

    Damn skippy!  :twisted:

    Im failing to understand… why a .22? If youre gonna buy a handgun, why not buy something that will actually protect you by killing / stopping the assailant rather than irritating them?
    Being as its a snubnose, it doesnt have much other use, like competition shooting.
    Just curious….?

    It’s a .22 magnum.  HUGE difference.  Already have a Walther p22, S&W .38, Kahr .40….needed a good conceal with a PUNCH.  :)

    Im not a gun fanatic, but that still sounds like someone saying “I have a Chevy Cavalier…… RALLY SPORT!”
    Its still a .22…. right?
    pardon my ignorance…..

    Plus, if the enemy is counting, you can make the quick getaway while they’re waiting for #6.

    Now all you need is one of those thingys that James West had so it can just pop out of your sleeve….. That would be keeewwwwwlll

    @sb  It may sound that way, but trust me, it’s not.  The ammo is what makes the big difference.  Check out this picture.  The mag is the second from the left, the regular .22 long rifle is the second from the right.

    @ Jim, how does the enemy know I don’t already have 6, 7, 8, etc.  :D

    @ E, that would be SO cool!  Of course, wouldn’t work all that well in the summer months, but still…..  LOL

    Ok gotcha.
    I just wonder how they can still call it a .22 when the shell is twice the size of a normal .22?
    I agree with Silent E. If youre gonna carry a lil gun like that, it needs to come out of your jacket sleeve.  ;)

    Well, I’ll see if my local gun guru can come up with one for me.  :)

    I’ll give it a shot (no pun intended):  .22 is the diameter of the projectile (bullet), and not the length of the cartridge.  The bullet is approximately .22″ in diameter for the .22 short, the .22 long,  the .22 long rifle, and the .22 magnum (and a few others that have lost some popularity over the years).

    Ok thanks.
