Next purchase for me?
Looking at a Bersa Thunder 22 for a couple of reasons. I carry the 380, at least as much as is legally possible, and want to practice with the same platform as inexpensively as I can ... going to get decidedly good with that weapon. It's also a nice choice for my kids as they spend time with me at the range. My 16-year-old daughter went with me a couple of weeks ago, for the first time, and was surprisingly good with the gun ... both in general handling and safety concerns, and in aim. I watched her lose her flinch within the first three mags, and then she was kicking in the 8 and 9 rings from a decent SD distance. She's also very interested in shouldering our 870 and taking down some clay. Anyway, the inexpensive 22LR ammo will make it easier to go to the range regularly and improve my/our aim.
