We had one as a range rental, it held up pretty good. Broke a firing pin (with a high round count). It's not a sturdy part but is easy to replace and cheap. I like them, held up to rental use better than the Walther P22.

If you don't mind me asking, but what was the price?
Would you every consider it for CC?
Array
I got it for about 240 bucks...plus tax......would I concider it for CC??...oh heck no.....a 22 does not have enough stopping power ...it's strictly a target weapon in my mind......or maybe even varmit weapon with proper sights.......Originally Posted by searcher 45
I carry a Taurus PT145BP.....10 rounds plus one in the pipe......
now any weapon can kill if employed.....but I'm thinking it's a good target plinker..

$240 is a good price!!
PT145 is a good carry but to bulky for me, but I do like the PT145.
Array
the pt145 is not that bad......it's a good carry weapon and at 45acp...definitely has the stopping pwr......

Mine has been very reliable and accurate.

Ive never seen one of those in person but I have to say it really reminds me of a Beretta neos. I got to run a brick of ammo through one of those, I have to admit it was a great plinker just using iron sights.
I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit
That's a pretty good price for a 22A... They seem to be good plinkers...A friend has had one for years and put 1000's of rounds through it without any troubles...

Have owned and shot one for five years. Mine has a 7 inch barrel and is a great plinker. Easy takedown too (similar to a Hi-Standard).

How do these run with the cheap bulk ammo?
When in doubt empty the magazine.

Took a few hundred rds to break-in, but now eats whatever I put in it.How do these run with the cheap bulk ammo?
I did notice that the finish on the bolt face and breech seemed to get soft after a couple of mags, causing some FTE. Removed the finish and polished the surface and haven't had any more issues.
