A friend has the Kel Tec PMR-30...30 rounds of .22 magnum firepower !

 

Trying to post a pick of my widest archangel charger but having problems with attachments

 

Wifes charger

 

Love this gun. Fun, comfortable, accurate. I've nailed jackrabbits at 150 yrds with cci stingers. And can rapid ring a steel tank half size a propane tank at 100 yards. All with a red dot. More fun than my ar15 mostley cause rimfires are so cheap to shoot all day long. Ruger barrels have good accuracy for a ten inch barrel. My favorite gun.

 

Forend two screws and it's gone. Easy to put together. Did this one myself

 

Might be kinda heavy one handed even with 5.5 barrel

 

Check out the S&W M&P 15 22lr pistol cheaper than charger with archangel kit and looks better too. I have the rifle version and they don't jam like the other ar knockoffs. Ps avoid colt, unless you like clearing jams. Don't know about their 1911 just colt ar rimfires...

 

Thanks a lot guys! After reading this thread I spent the last two hours researching a .22lr pistol. Here is what I have narrowed down my list to: Colt Goverment .22, Ruger SR22 and a Walther P22.

This gun will strictly be for practice/target shooting. The reason for my choices are as follows. The main choice behing the Colt is that it is a 1911 chambered in .22 and I believe it will help me with familiarise myself with the 1911 (possible .45 1911 purchase in the near future). The same applies for the Ruger and Walther since I already own a G17 Gen4.

I chose not to go with a .22 conversion kit for one simple reason. The kit itself costs almost just as much as these three examples and I would much rather have one gun set aside for this purpose alone. I do not see the point in having one gun for a dual purpose when two seperate guns can accomplish the same goal for the same amount of money.

My next line of thought goes to the .22 ammo itself. I have noticed there is a huge market out there to choose from. In a previous thread I had written when I first joined I was concerned with a "break in period". I took the advice of a poster here and some friends and put 124 gr. (I recall buying a box of higher pressure ammo but don't recall what kind) ammo downrange through my G17. Is there any recommended ammo in regards to this or does the same scenario fall into place? From what I have seen so far, people recommended to me a few boxes of the more expensive CCI ammo and than just switching to you value pack 500 round box you can pick up for $12.

Any insight on the gun/ammo I have spoken of, good or bad would be highly appreciated. Heck, even if I forgot to mention any gun that you guys love please feel free to share!

 

GSG-5's are nice, and they have a Beta mag too, (110) round

 

The colt 1911 .22 I got had good reviews haven't shot it yet though it looks and feels like a 45 1911 here is a pic of it

 

It's only a ten or twelve round magazine though and it only came with one mag

 

For some reason I failed to mention Sig Sauer and their two options. The 1911 .22LR and the Sig Mosquito.

 

I've heard those sig 1911s are pretty picky on ammo and can FTF on ya
