I love my Bersa .22 cal. But must admit, it is not the most dependable 22.cal. Very picky about ammo and will shoot only MiniMags, and golden bullets and other high velocity ammo. But I love the style! I love the feel, I love the James Bond look. Now comes out the new Walther PPK L 22lr PPK/s in .22 cal. and according to this video, it will shoot any ammo. I hope this crazy ammo shortage ends soon, and if so, I will probably get one of these.

Neat.

I have a Sig Mosquito .22LR that started out as a picky beast. As long as she was getting fed CCI MiniMags she worked just fine. Anything else and she became a single shot. But after I polished the feed ramp with a couple of thousand rounds she straightened out. As long as it was high velocity ammo.

I really like my old (German-made) PPK/S in .380. It's heavy compared to today's pocket .380 pistols, but it can handle hotter loads all week long with no problem.

A freind of mine's FIL has an old Walther .22 unfired in the box. I asked him about it and he said he'd talk to him, didn't hear anything so I dropped it.

The new ones look to be nice.
