I would have it checked by an unbiased gunsmith. If it is in good condition I don't see any harm in shooting light loads in it. Some of those cheep guns were surprisingly accurate.

I have a very long list of should not have sold/traded/loaned. Some highlights: Colt New Service .45 ACP & a Police Positive Special .38 special, both with barrels bobbed professionally to 2". The PPS looked like a Detective Special and may have been a special run from the Colt factory. Ruger...

Yes, a 12ga shotgun is versatile but.... carry 500 rounds of 12ga shells for a mile, then do the same with a brick of .22lr. There is a slight difference in weight ;-) .

I had those tremors too after I shot my Polish P64 stoked with 115 grn (read HOT machinegun) loads. The RO said it was called traumatic fatigue. It is where your extremities experiences a physical shock or blow repeatedly and shaking is the only response your body has to deal with it.

This must be the day of resurrected posts....

Try this Bushnell Trophy Red/Green Dot... An ACOG look-a-like for about $200.

Smith & Wesson Escort .22 pistol, that POS belonged to a boss I worked for... I would have shot it if it fired any of the 5 different brands of ammo I had on hand. Main spring the culprit, but when it was replaced it would not feed anything.

Its not polymer but look-up Para Ordinance Big Hog P-14.
