Time to knock the dust off of this one. After hunting season is over (got a nice buck with my 6.5 Creedmore) I usually get into hunting once it starts to warm up a bit in the spring, but with it not really getting to be too cold I am starting a bit earlier. Well I shot my TP9SFX with my father in law and wife (she didn't like it much) and then went to see if I could order some more ammo. Uh, all I can say is that its nuts! There is no way I can economically shoot my 9mm for awhile so what was I to do?
Well, it just so happened that my father in law was after a new pistol called a Browning Buckmark which is a 22 pistol for target shooting. So I said lets go to YouTube and see which ones they like. Well time and time again the top 22 pistols came up to this Taurus 22. I was thinking I would look for a 22 in Ruger or S and W or Sig or something along those lines, but when I tried to find info on 22 pistols everything I read as far as reviews said to go for this one. So I did. Here is my new Taurus TX22:
For $260 you cannot beat this pistol. It is almost full size, feels good, great trigger, great adjustable sights, picitanny rail, amd safety, easy take down, etc. etc. I haven't shot it yet, but the thing has 16 round clips! In a 22! The great thing is I have four bricks of 22 rounds I bought when the last ammo scare happened. I am not sure when, but I am thinking it was during the Obama administration. Personally, I don't think the ammo thing has anything to do with political parties, just an excuse by ammo companies to create a scare so folks go nuts with it. I will let you know how it shoots. I already have an optical plate coming in so I can put a red dot on it. It is hard for me to do three focus points with my eyes now. Good thing I like red dots.
