Chiappa M9-22

[Microgunner]

A guy pawned his Chiappa M9-22 .22lr pistol with us and so I got my first chance to handle one, and although I wouldn't classify it as a high quality pistol by appearence, I must say it's a whole lot better looking than their 1911-22, of which I used to own one.

It's full weight, has a decocker and is DA/SA.

Slide locks open on an empty mag and the pistol appears to function just like the Beretta.

The barrel is full profile aluminum with a very thin steel sleeve.

After my experience with the Chiappa 1911-22 I won't be buying one, but I gotta say, it looks pretty good for it's price.
