Snapped some pics of a couple of my 22 pistols today, the Beretta is a 22 short flip nose and has the plating and engraving and is quite easy to conceal. The Colt Woodsman is a sweet shooting gun and I can hit nearly anything with it. I forfeited my .380 after the last transporting a loaded firearm charge so I'll be in the market for a slightly larger conceal weapon, I have a chance to get a Makarov 9mm for $120 but have to wait 2 more months for my probation to end. I love 22s whether it be a pistol or rifle, I have 3 22 rifles as well. These two are my favorites!:thumbsup:
On the other hand, I cant complain about the cost of shooting it. Without getting into a battle over whether its even worth carrying as a personal defense weapon, I do love mine and have a lot of fun with it- even if its accuracy leaves something to be desired.
A belly gun good for backup and a good alternative to leaving your larger weapon behind because of summertime clothing or having to remove a jacket. I'd rather get caught with a gun than without. The Beretta is good for what it is and while it lacks accuracy and stopping power sometimes it's the mere presence of a gun that can end a situation. Although it's doubtful anyone would see mine unless a shot was gonna be fired, a rule I try to live by.:thumbsup:
We do have a conceal and carry law and they wont give me a permit because of a juevinile record but it was expunged. Still the OSBI is the governing body and can deny access as well as use expunged records when deciding. I'm appealing. What's funny is I can buy a gun because I'm not considered a convicted felon. Makes little to no sense so I've had a few transporting loaded firearms charges. I pay the fines and go on.:thumbsup:
As far as .22s go:
I have a Ruger New Model Single Six revolver, which has 2 cylinders - .22LR and .22 Mag
Then there's the Ruger MKI semi auto Target model
And the Taurus Model 94 .22LR 9 shot revolver
Then there's the Marlin 60 .22 LR I got for christmas about 30 years ago
And finally the Ruger 10/22 I used to hunt gophers for my grandpa with when I was a kid. Also still have the 27 round "banana clip" for it as well, which I can own since I've had it, but now illegal to sell in CA.

As far as the carry permit goes, I have one, but they aren't always easy to get here in Commiefornia
Got 2 Glocks and a Smith 642 on the permit. I'm allowed 3 on the permit, and can strap on all 3 at once, but can't carry any others that aren't on the permit. Pretty funny if you ask me.
I can be driving down the road with 3 guns strapped on, but be a felon because of a little pea shooter lying in my front seat...

Good thing really, silencers get you federal time! I've seen em and shot some guns equipped with them, even saw them made but I'm not ever going to own one. If I'm gonna take someone out all sneaky being heard would not be an issue, I'm a hell of a long distance shooter so I'd do it that way. :thumbsup:
