For a compact autoloader, the Daewoo DP-22 or the Bersa Thunder .22 are the best of the best, AFAIC.
I wouldn't trust the Beretta, because it doesn't even have an extractor; a dud will be awkward to clear. The TPH is known to have certain parts that may be prone to failures that lead to unreliability, so it's hit or miss.
Taurus makes a decent .22, too. I forget the name.
Most all the others small .22's are NOT going to be safe to carry chambered.
