I’d like a Beretta 21A
with a threaded Barrel.
For those “Quiet Moments.”
It’s a Pocket Pistol for You.

22s are great for practice and target shooting. I’ve got several and really like shooting them.
Project Appleseed does a great job to showing how proper training with a 22 rifle carries right over to larger caliber rifles.
But 22 is not a wise carry caliber. Not to stake your life on.
ping for later
Ruger mark IV 22/45
Thinking the M9
Is the US Military
9mm.
Ruger SR22 ... the most reliable with the range of 22lr ammo. Load CCI Velocitors in it, or at the least CCI mini-mags. I am approaching 1000 rounds through mine and have yet to have a stoppage attributed to the gun. The 22lr ammo, not so much. I have the model with the threaded barrel.
I refer to this class as “oh shite!” guns. Rather have a 10+1 9mm SD magazine but 22 is better than karate in an ambush.
.22 is not sufficient for self defense.
It’s great for target practice, I recommend a Browning Buckmark.
Beretta makes a .22 version with the same size and feel.
My personal fave now that Ruger fixed the reassembly issue. Mine's got a threaded barrel. Just sayin'
Agree. Ruger SR-22 is the best plinking .22 pistol out there.
Browning Buckmark? No. Large and finicky. It’s way down the list in my opinion (and I have one).
Mine has in excess of 30,000 rounds through it without issue.
Ruger SR-22 is ideal for concealed carry. Use CCI Mini-Mag 36 grain hollow points for self defense.
The SR-22 also makes for a decent plinking pistol, but the Ruger Mark IV 22/45 is a much better plinker. Not much for carry, however, unless you open carry in an outside of the waistband holster.
not a ruger fan but agree with others.

My son has a Ruger 22 pistol and it’s a nice piece.
I know that technically for self defense a 22 does not have a lot of potential to stop someone, but it’s better to have something you can and will use than nothing.
And besides, put enough holes in someone and you’re increasing your likelihood of hitting something that could do some damage.
An artery nicked by a 22 can kill just as dead as one nicked by a larger caliber.
Revolvers are more reliable.
