Oh dont get me wrong, that was why injected the whole "semi auto" and "opinion" into it. I have not had a chance to try out one of those S&W .22's, but I believe you 
pound for pound, round for round though... Its hard to beat a 22/45. I have not found a more reliable, rugged, or accurate .22 auto. It will chug any type of .22LR you put in it and do it with extreme accuracy. I'd venture to say its just as accurate as any .22 rifle I have shot. Not to mention its a hell of a lot of fun to shoot. Love it. :thumbup:
Edited to say that probably not as accurate as an old .22LR pump action I used to have, or a .22 Garand trainer I've shot. Still though...

I have a Ruger Standard that was the first handgun I bought. Its very accurate, but a bit finicky with ammo. I think there were some improvements in the Mark 1 and 2 but they are all nice pistols until you need to take them apart that is a nightmare!

That looks really handy.
I haven't fired a .22 pistol in decades... last time I did, it was my uncle/godfather's revolver. I think it was a Ruger? Might have been an offshore copy, I honestly don't recall. Definitely single-action, though, I remember that very clearly.
He was really accurate with it out to 30 paces or so... I mean scary accurate. I remember him dropping a whitetail doe like a stone with it at roughly 20 yards, with one head-shot in the dark, while I held his flashlight. "Pop"... food. Thanks!
That's probably a story for another time
Me, not so much. Although it didn't take him long to teach me to put three rounds in a "minute of beer can" group. That pistol was easy to point and control, even for a dimwit kid like me.

Maybe the best .22 auto but certainly not the best .22 pistol :thumbup:

2nd day in a row for postal delivery failure. :grumpy: Didn't even snow, just temps barely into double digits. Now I have TWO packages I'm waiting for. USPS again says they "left notice". HA! There's snow in my mailbox. 
Nothing to be done...perhaps if I don't fall asleep immediately after dinner I'll get my bench a little cleaner. Been looking at a Craftsman 2x42 sander/grinder. It's probably one of the few tools I don't have 
.....looks to be a reasonably priced and decent machine for an entry point......

They're cancelling stuff around here left and right too, for the upcoming snow, and temps.

Wow! What kinda temps are you experiencing? When we were in southern Tennessee last week temps were the high 40s low 50s.

By the time all your weather gets here it's gonna be in the 40's and raining....at least that's the prediction.

Isn't today Friday? Wouldn't there be no school for the next two days anyway?
The Hoffman ESEE-CM6 is pretty sweet:
Looks interesting. I could do without the sharpened swedge though.

Very nice. Right now I'm settling for a Heritage Rough Rider convertible and a firestorm .22 for my .22 pistols and conversion kits for my glock and 1911. They don't suck by any means or I would have sold them off, but they are not finely crafted things of beauty, that's for sure. I'd like to get a ruger single 10, bearcat, .22sp101 and .22lr LCR.
