22lr Handguns-Reviews, Recommendations, and Trouble Shooting

[WhoGarrDen]

PSA had these yesterday. Snagged one. Pretty dang good deal and comes with a dot.

I've been wanting one for a long time but they've always been out of stock everywhere.

Ordered a hellbound suppressor holster for it.

Where I shoot there's always rattle snakes. Going to keep this on me for walking back and forth to the target. So I can take care of any satanic creatures and not wreck my ears lol.

Will the 4.6" barrel keep standard ammunition subsonic? The only reason I'm considering going compact Tx22 is to allow the use of full power ammo for varmint with a suppressor.

Standard velocity will be subsonic,'full power' high velocity may not be. SV has been working on varmints for over a hundred years......

Thank you. I had meant standard velocity when I said full power, apologies for my ignorance of a higher velocity option.

Update on the MP22X:

Running well on the home bru of ATF fluid mixed with WD40 white lithium grease. Still cycling 40gr Federal auto-match without hiccup. Had one failure to feed due to thumb pressure on the slide.
I chronographed these at 1001fps over 20 rounds.

We are coming up on 4000 rounds. I decided it has probably earned itself some kind of holster at this point. I looked around, and didn’t see anything I was impressed enough to buy.

So being the DIY kind of guy I am, my daughter and I decided to print one with her new 3D printer.
We used a Glock 19/17 bucket holster as the base. Then used gorilla-tape shims to take up space until rattle was eliminated.

i used her purple PLA filament as a gen 1. We will plan to basically run this to failure, then print a gen2 out of petG with a resized internal volume.

Handled a 22x at the LGS yesterday.
It was difficult to leave it there.

Will that holster accommodate a light in the rail?

No, not this one. It indexes off the trigger guard.
But lots of other 3d print files out there for light bearing holsters.

Nothing says "quality daddy daughter time" better than making holsters together. So much America!

Just FWIW.....I chrono'ed some CCI Mini Mag HPs a few minutes ago. From a 5.5" ruger MKII with a can, they were all 1120' to 1180'. So, all supersonic. Lose another inch of barrel and I'd think they could go either way depending on the extreme spread.

That’s the beauty of the 22. Good for families, good for America.

"As the price of .22 goes up, the pace of freedom goes down - we must unleash American economic might from the shackles of marxism, and make .22 great again!"

Academy had freedom buckets of little Golden Bullets on sale for $99 not too long ago. I doubled up on that one as almost all my Deuce Deuce's like it.

I've a couple of revolvers and a couple of semi auto 22's.

Mostly range time but I've taken my SP 101 and no longer owned MKIII grouse hunting. New MK IV has taken squirrel.

Have the full Volquartsen accurizing kit for my MK IV but so far have only put in the extractor.

Mostly use CCI mini mags but usually have an assortment of 22lr on hand.

My old H&R 949'er likes Standard Velocity best.

Shot some Stingers out of my LCP II---action functioned great--great little fireballs out of the barrel.
Haven't had enough range time yet with this one but i was getting baseball sized groups at 10 yards.
