Yeah, the Smith & Wesson 351 that we ran across in a used gun counter. I bought it. How often do I get a chance to buy a used 22mag J-frame? Basically never.
During construction at the range, I snuck out and shot it a little. Pretty fun little gun. And I can confirm, if you have a friend who is recoil shy, but needs “something” for CCW. At close range, with the right ammo, I am willing to bet 22 mag can put the hurt on somebody.
Disclaimer. I didn’t say this was my first choice. I never said I would choose 22 Mag over X or Y caliber. Don’t get it twisted. As a general rule, I don’t care for any sub-compact gun. But I have looked at the data, and it tells me that 22 mag is NOT in last with the pocket rocket crowd.
Sincerely,
Marky
