Appreciate all the replies. I'm going with the S&W.

Because of where I live I don't have the luxury of a hands on examination of these and buying both is not an option. Deciding factor is which one has the best trigger. Thanks for any help. Am also open to a 22 magnum Ruger LCR or S&W 351

Most cops are bad shots too.

I am sincerely looking for sound advice I'm just not interested in 9mm or 5.56 and just wanted to avoid unnecessary posts. Shoot off a magazine of each at an outdoor range and post your report. Maybe you sleep with your hearing protection but what about your family? To tell the truth, I...

I was thinking of a 22 lr AR style pistol not 5.56x45.

Much has been written about this but I haven't been able to find anything on hearing damage to the shooter or any of the survivors. It was done indoors with a 5.7x28 FN FiveseveN pistol which is very loud. Anyone know anything? PS I think it insane that our military personnel cannot carry...

Does anyone know of a source for decibel levels cartridges from different length barrels? I always wear ear protection when shooting but in a self defense situation I will not have this luxury. I won't get a suppressor because I don't want to be on an ATF list. I own many firearms but which...

I'm in the market for one. Lots of good reviews on the new Ruger LCP MAX. I like 1911 style pistols. Sig P238 or Kimber Micro 380 are attractive. A few questions: 1. Does Colt still make the Mustang Lite or the Mustang XSP? 2. Anyone have input on reliability of any of these? Thanks for...

C'mon man, I already apologized once for the omission.

Yes. If the 22TCM conversion doesn't work out I wouldn't mind having a lighter weight 9mm 1911. The conversion kit has a ramped barrel but if I get a lightweight 1911, say a Kimber, and have it cut there's no going back. It's beginning to look like if I want a 22TCM I'll just have to accept...

Yeah, sorry about that. Their conversion kit is only for a 5 inch.

They do sell this on their AdvancedTactical website, very few details: 22TCM Conversion Kit for 1911 A1

I'm not sure if a 1911 slide will work with a 2011 frame. Their only 5 inch 9mm is all steel. They have a 4.2 inch model with alloy frame. Don't know if you can put a 5 inch slide on that. And the prices! They make having a Clark/Para frame cut and fitting look downright cheap.

They don't make any alloy frame 1911's.

The title basically says it all. Are there any off the shelf factory models that fit this description? Or am I doomed to an expensive gunsmith job or full blown custom? I know someone is going to ask why I want this specific model. I want a 22TCM 1911 with a lightweight frame and a...

Is there such a thing in current production?

Hundreds? In NYC? Doesn't seem like a high number to me.

It was based on an online survey. Lot's of armchair warriors.

The ruger LCR is available in a wide range of calibers. I am trying to pick one for daily carry from the following list: 22 magnum 22 lr 22 short 327 Federal 32 H&R magnum 32 long 32 short 32 ACP I think all will get the job done provided there is very accurate shot placement; PLEASE, no...

Thanks, guys, for taking the time to explain it to me.
