Yet Another Gun Thread
Interesting that they put the charging handle on the left and the ejection port on the right, and that the travel on that thing is so long, seeing as its such a short cartridge. I also didn't realize they had the Sturmgewehr44 program running in '42. Hitler was so short sighted, but his experience came out of the trenches in WW1, so I guess its hard to blame him. Its almost a good thing he never listened to his generals.

I so lust for a StG44.. GSG Makes a .22lr StG-44 replica but it's like $600!!!!
I love large calibers, but realistically .22 is more practical for budget, its also very underestimated as a deadly round.
The cheap used price I paid was WELL worth it.

They sell an entire 1911 (in .22). Weight is close to my STI Spartan, trigger isn't bad, frame fully slides, is reasonably accurate. It looks like a 1911 in all components, even breaking it down is close. There is an extra bolt/push pin to remove, but thats because its a fixed barrel.

That?
Yikes, that rail looks terrible. I don't mind railed 1911's but it to be integrated neatly to look good.
Otherwise, looks good. I loved my 1911 Marvel Unit 2 .22...just fun to shoot .22 out of that platform.

Oh and mine does not have the rail, that was a more recent model for the tacticool kids. Mine just looks like a plain ole 1911.
