it's a .22lr - so it gets dirty quick - other than that - cheaper than .223 & it gets noticed.

I've heard (on the 'Net, where else) that Spike's was picky on ammo and had some troubles when it came to grime, but what .22LR doesn't? Did you get yours from Spike's Tactical or somewhere else?

I got it from Spikes - took about 8-9 weeks. So far, don't use Federal . I put about 100 through it before the jamming started up. I think I will try CCI for the next trip.

Good info! Thanks, Vadster. Hopefully I'll meet you someday at BNC (if I can ever get out there on Saturday evenings!).

Still waiting on my S&W M&P 15-22lr to come in. My Bravo Company AR15s need some company.

How much .380 ammo did you find? It's very scarce around these parts.

I was thinking of a P380 mouse gun for my GF but decided against it purely for ammo availability reasons. For now she'll have to make due with my PM9

I have one with the crimson trace grips. Very nice pocket carry that looks like a wallet in my little holster.
