I've always liked the .22 in nearly all it's configuations, except maybe semi-jam, er, autoIt's cheap to shoot. A fella can go out and plink all afternoon for 10 bucks, and if you're paying attention to technique, you are picking up valuable trigger control that you can apply to the rest of your weapons. Now, if you're gonna shoot a mouse gun, you had best practice a controled, accurate double tapto the head, and then plan to empty the rest into the poor misunderstood punk. I don't like the semi-auto .22, ie, the small pocket autos. I have a S&W 317 AirLite that is very slim, weighs 10oz empty and slips into almost any pocket un-noticed. It's golf ball accurate at self defense range and has been my grouse gun for years while big game hunting. I guess I just like J Frames in general. I still carry the 317 sometimes even though I have a nice 640-3 (J Frame, DAO, Stainless, .357) that will pump 180grain hardcast 9" into a doug fir round; perfect for almost anything you might run into in the woods, two or four footed. Anyone else like their small pocket revolvers? J Frames Rule:celebrate
