Chili Ron Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 Howdy, Any little .22 pistols about the size and shape of a ruger lcp or kel tec .32???? Id like something well made not a throwaway. Just big enough for medium size hands please. Does ruger make the lcp in .22? Thanks aheadotime. Best CR
Pat Riot Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 Not sure if you’d be interested but I have met several people that own the cheap Jimenez Arms JA-22 pistols and they were very happy with them as long as they shot premium high velocity ammo. Think CCI Stinger or Velocitor. https://jimenezarmsinc.com/ja22lr/

Rooster Ron Wayne Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 My wife plinks with a Taurus tip up barrel pistol. Quality ammo is the big key of any auto loader to work properly. We only shoot CCI ammo in all the .22's we own . So saith the Rooster
Linn Keller, SASS 27332, BOLD 103 Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 Yes Ruger does make their LCP in a 22 rimfire now, see LawMan Mark's link above. Been threatening to get one.
Trigger Mike Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 I really like the ruger lcp in 22. Glock makes a 22 that is great as well
Finagler 6853 Life Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 The Taurus tip up .22 is a copy of the Beretta. Don't remember the Beretta model but I have one. Works great.

Cat Brules Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 Are you stuck on .22 caliber, or are you considering others?? Cat Brules
Chili Ron Posted June 22, 2020 Author Posted June 22, 2020 Howdy Cat, I never know how to answer questions like yours. Yes I have heard that bullets come in several sizes. I get bombarded with ruger emails and still until today did NOT know the lcp was brought out in .22 rf on Dec 30 2019. Best CR
Pat Riot Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 I didn''t know there was a Ruger LCP .22LR. Interesting.
Cat Brules Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 The reason I asked, is because to me, the reason to have a very small pistol is for ease of carry and ease of concealment.....both for self protection. So, I don’t believe that .22LR is best for self protection. AND, I know that very small, very good semi-auto pistols are available in larger calibers, such as my surprisingly small original Colt Mustang, caliber .380acp....a heavy hitter. I don’t know if this one is still being made, but look around....it’s practically invisible, and guns like it be equally concealable. Let’s face it and not fool ourselves; none of these weapons are made for target shooting. .22LR ain’t good enough to properly protect you. Cat Brules
Chili Ron Posted June 22, 2020 Author Posted June 22, 2020 Howdy, .22 bounces around, tears open arteries, Lots of things. Maybe I just want something more packable than 1911. I did just have all the springs replaced. Best CR
Kid Russell Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 My wife's Browning 1911 is small and light, thinner than a Colt Mustang but longer. I have never had a problem with any ammo that I feed it. I "borrow" it every time I go to the range because it is just a blast to shoot. I can't even see the sights but I almost never miss with it. The grand kids really like it too.
Cat Brules Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 Here’s the Colt Mustang .380acp. (5 or 6?)-round magazine) Use the bullets in the picture to get a perspective of the size of the pistol. There are many small semi-autos similar to this out there. This Colt is very high quality (also comes blued). ......Cat Brules

G W Wade Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 I have a Ruger SR-22 Great little gun. Thousands of rounds downrange and other than an occasional FTF from cheap 22's GW
SHOOTIN FOX Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 Kimber micro in 380acp. 1911 form and controls. Beretta tomcat 22 stingers for deep concealment. ultra Raptor 3” 45 acp for everyday.
Trigger Mike Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 if you want to buy a used Beretta Tomcat in 22 with a NIB spare magazine I have one and can be talked out of it. I'd likely let it go for $255 shipped and insured.
Straight Stock Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 I'm trying to get my hands on a KelTec P17. It's light, comes with 3 mags, is 16+1 and under $200. Reviews on it so far have been positive. It's just made of unobtanium, that's all...
Hashknife Cowboy Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 I’d go with that miniature Ruger, it sure is fun and easy to shoot. Price is good also. Another fun one is the S&W MP .22 Compact, but it is 3 times larger than the lil Ruger.
Chili Ron Posted June 23, 2020 Author Posted June 23, 2020 Howdy, Trigger Mike check messages, pard. Best CR did message get thru??
