Charles,

You make a pretty good case for the 4" .357. I certainly like them.

definitely a short range SD revolver. Shoots the whole range of .410 and .45 colt. I know some folks that have them and like them. They haven't excited me enough to get one.

Only takes about one round to figure out that you shouldn't have your eye right on the scope. :lol:

A good deal of recoil management is grip (hand and arm position) in addition to the mass of the pistol. The lighter the firearm the more recoil you could feel. The good thing about .22's is they don't have much recoil. The downside is that you can get really relaxed when it comes to recoil managemen...

S&W 317 or Ruger LCR22. Would do what you want. I think accuracy is the key to how well the round works. A well-placed .22 probably works very well. A .40 that is not center of mass probably doesn't work as well. You might get what you are looking for in a small .380, 9mm or snubnose .38. I have the...

So, when the boss complains about what I spend on firearms, I can tell her they are investments. I think I've tried that. At least she hasn't suggested I cash in on them.

I bet I could but it into the "auto" trigger mode and still jerk the shot off. They offered me quite a challenge. :lol:

I noticed you have to apply to get a price. Bet it's a bit more than my DPMS Oracle.

S&W 422 as an investment?

Saw two S&W 422's at the Richmond Gun show yesterday. the 6" barrel model was $579 and the 4" barrel model was $489. The 6" was more than twice the price I paid for a 6" from the same dealer about 3 years ago from the same dealer. Didn't see anything special about these. They didn't have much signs ...

The first Viet Nam era draft lottery was a classic. It's still used as an example of how not to hold a random drawing. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft_lottery_%281969%29

I have the CMMG kit. Some fall off in accuracy but it works well. Simply a bolt replacement with a magazine.

The Taurus PT22 seemed to do well as did the Beretta Bobcat. Ruger22 may be the small .22 expert. One step up in size are the Walther P22 and the Ruger SR22. I've had both and prefer the Ruger. The Ruger is a better quality pistol, I can shoot it more accurately and the brass doesn't hit you in the ...
