Can yall help me out with something? I am dying for a .22 that I can shoot up and not worry about ammo prices. I have narrowed it to 2 choices:
1. Buy the .22LR conversion kit for my Glock. This sounds really cool and would allow real practice with trigger etc. I am only hesitant because I worry about accuracy out of the short barrel. I also think the cool factor is more on this choice because it looks like a real pistol.
2. Get a Ruger or a Buckmark. I loved the buckmark I shot last week, and I have always liked shooting my dad's 22/45. The relatives that are uneasy about my glock, own and shoot .22 pistols themselves, so this would catch me less flak than the glock while carrying out on the ranch. (I have been CCing the glock to keep them ignorant and happy)
My concerns:
I would really like the conversion, but I feel like it cheats me out of a whole 'nother gun. The cool factor (and practice factor) is just so high on this option. I am also concerned about the accuracy out of a 3.5-4" barrel as opposed to the 5.5 or 6" barrel I would get in option 2.
What say you THO?
