Nice! but the trigger pull at 4-6 lbs would need some work.

That looks like a good idea except for the barrel length. The .22 magnum is notorious for requiring a long barrel for anything like normal performance.

Out of a 4 inch it would be hardly better than a .2LR. I would have a tremendous muzzle blast tho.

I’ve been pondering a ‘stock’ extension system which would provide a ‘slide in’ method for adding a shoulder telescoping stock to a good semi-auto pistol ... for several calibers. Even shooting one handed, a shoulder stock would add stability and ‘from the hip’ targeting improvement. The idea is to construct something which the grip of an auto loader slides into to give the lengthened package ‘against the shoulder’ stability. Modern materials would be ideal for this system since strength can be achieved without thickness.
