The one we had was a loaner from hub’s boss. The clip was bent and I replaced it but then he wanted it back. I’m not sure what kind it was; it held 10 or 15 rounds. I really should buy another one, but they can’t be used to get your CHL so I’m undecided.

Yet, they are fun to shoot and I actually improved my accuracy at the range using one. I had a bad scare the first time I fired a gun, having been given a Glock and not expecting that it-fired-backward-into-my-chest feeling. Luckily, there was a 5-time int’l champ there who coaxed me into trying a .22 and ‘saved’ me from total gunfear.

Glocks are okay, but I would never start someone firing one. I'm surprised that the .22’s aren't allowed when qualifying for a CHL. I used a .38, but I don't remember anyone being prohibited from using a .22. There's a new .32 magnum that is being promoted right now, but I'd start with a .38 if I weren't sure what to use for CHL qualifying.
