I really want one for myself also.

I'll be pre-ordering them at SHOT if I can.

heel magazine release to
aid in magazine retention

That's the one thing that disappoints me,

Meh, I'm not going to use it for IPSC.

I am thinking I will actually like taking this out plinking. I never go "plinking"

But have you seen the price of .22 mag ammo?

 

[ORBrit]

that might be a nice toy. With a 30 round mag it could get expensive to shoot though!

Luckily I stockpiled it 10 years ago.

I picked up some 50 round boxes with ballistic tips like the .17 hmr rounds. Walmart $5 per box.

Not bad at all.

Tell them at SHOT you need some with threaded barrels. Put me down for one!

I think Tornado has us covered.

It looks like there is some kind of weird chamfer or flange at the end of that barrel though. I was thinking extended/threaded.

I hope we see a 22lr version in the near future.

I just noticed something I hadn't seen before. The sights aren't adjustable.

I hadn't noticed this thread before, but this is interesting.

As an owner of a .22 WMR rifle, finding a pistol like this would be a nice boon for I (common ammo FTW). Any idea on what this'll run for and general time frame for availability?

the latest news i heard was 2nd quarter 2010. by my neandertal level thinking, they aughta start trickling in to stores about summer. my cousin is a dealer and i told him i wanted the first one he could lay his hands on.

 

[pease]

I'll I can say is that is FUGLY

 

[jquirit]

Bringing this back to the top to see if Coctailer has seen this item yet at SHOT.

 

[coctailer]

Good timing jquirit!!

This thing is pretty sweet. I ordered 50 of them.

Here are my Spy Photos.

I don't know if I'm over thinking this or not but I have a hard time understanding how a rimmed cartridge in a double stack configuration will feed out of a semi-auto. It looks like the magazine is pretty much straight. If Kel Tec found a way to overcome this problem, kudos to them.
