  • Show your rimfires!!!

    Rimfires are cheap and fun to shoot. Part of the fun is because they're so cheap. Low recoil also helps. 500 rounds of 22LR can be had for $18 from Wally World, about 1/10 the cost of the cheapest 45 ACP.

    I bought my first rimfire gun last year. It was a Beretta 948, manufactured in 1952.

        I'm having a conversation with myself...about guns...

        The 948 is in the middle. It's hella fun to shoot, but being so old, the hammer spring is a bit weak and I get light strikes on some rounds. It also has occassional ejection problems. I had to manually rack the slide to eject or chamber the next round in the mag. But that could be due to the ammo. I use cheap bulk stuff from Wally World.

          My favorite rimfire... the Colt ACE I bought when I was about 22 and have kept ever since. The grips are mammoth ivory.

                  Cadpipe, beautiful pistols, the wood on the second one is very interesting, do you have a shot showing the grip in perspective? I don't understand how the butt of the grip fits your hand.

                    I can get one next time I am home, unfortunately on the road right now. basically though, you grab it as normal, and the long low piece of grip is adjustable up and down, you raise it so you have to wedge your hand in so you don't really need to grip it. It is a right handed grip. ;)

                      Very nice - I tried out for our school pistol team, and while I did OK, I found I had a bit too much "nervous energy" and my groups weren't as tight as some of the others. When you get to an extreme level competitively, it is almost scary how good the best shooters are.

                      We used S & W M41's:

                        and the 41's could be heavy barrel or long barrel. And they made (make) Herrett grips for them. Gun stocks by Herrett's Stocks, Inc. :Dancing-Banana:
