Beretta Neos .22

[BLACK-N-TAN]

Anybody have one of these? I picked one up this weekend when I was on a hunt for a .22 autoloader. My buddy has a Swith & Weson 422 from the 70s that is a blast to shoot and is very accurate so I was looking for something similar. The S & W .22's I looked at (kind of the newer versions of the 422) just didn't feel right or fit my hand good. I looked at the Neos 6" and was sold on it, $249.00 NIB. All I can say is this little fugger is a tack driver, I ran a whole 500 box of rounds through it and was hitting coke cans @ 50-75 yrds....it also has a weaver style rail that runs the whole length of the barrel. We put an Eotech on it off of one of our ARs for the hell of it and that made it even more fun to shoot. Now I am on the hunt for a smaller red dot sight for it, any suggestions? I don't wanna break the bank with it as I bought it for something that would be fun, but cheap to shoot.

Mine was great--for about 4,000 rounds. Then: broken extractor (blew out at the range). I think there's a firing pin problem as well. It's become a jammer--and it's out of warranty. If I were doing it again I'd go Ruger, even though I hear the Rugers are a PITA to clean (that's why I went with Beretta).

I have several thousand rounds through mine...no problems. I just put on a cheap B SA red dot...about $30...and you become an instant range king.
