I've been thinking about investing in a suppressor for my 1911. I've been looking particularly at Gemtech's line of .45 suppressors and AWC's Nexus. The problem is that they are still very expensive. So lately I've been rationalizing that I should begin my Class III ventures nice and small. Hence, I have been considering options for .22LR suppressors. I would really like to get a Walther PPK in .22, but those are really rare. A company I found on the internet will sell me one for little under $1k, which is too much. Would be nice, but pretty expensive. Next, I looked at Bersa's line of .22 pistols, since they are reminiscent of Walthers and would still be pretty neat. Problem there is I don't have much in the way of aftermarket options, esp. threaded barrels essential for suppression. Lastly, I thought about getting a .22lr conversion for a mini glock and getting a suppressor for that. Same as before, however, I am unaware of threaded barrels that I could purchase for said conversions. The only conversion system I am aware of w/ a threaded bbl is by Jarvis, for the full size 1911. While that certainly is a feasible option, I would like to get a small gun to be suppressed. What are some other options for .22LR suppressors and little handguns? What about the Walther P22? Is that a good candidate? Need input!

 Ruger 10/22 integrally suppressed Beretta 92FS with AWC Abraxus Ruger MKII integrally suppressed By far, everyones favorite is the 10/22. Have yet to see someone shoot it without a grin on their face. The MKII comes in second, and the Beretta is a disappointment after shooting the other two. |
