22LR
I was just told by Smith Wesson Corp that their M&P22 pistol will hit retail stores this July 2011. This is great news. I already own two M&Ps (service & compact) and having a 22LR version is going to be very important part of my training and practice.
S&W released the M&P22 during Shot Show 2010 but some delays have pushed back the retail launch date. Here are some of the features included in the Shot Show models:
I am not a huge fan of the 'tacticool' 10/22 because well I already plan on getting an AR15 that shoots 22LR. But this is pretty cool. Its a wooden stock that is a drop in replacement for the Ruger 10/22 that looks like an M1 Carbine from WWII. Made by E. Arthur Brown Company. The side profile looks almost exactly the same. The stock alone runs for just $110, the optional sights, sling and stick style 10 round mags are extra.
