One more revolver purchase!

First the .500, then the .454 now this beast! I was told it's 1 of 1500. Talo model i think. I always wanted one of these. I planned on the pug model but this changed my mind.

Never seen a black one, very cool!

I've wanted a .22lr version for a long time, what do they run these days?

$329 for this one. I've seen the regular plain models used for $200. I put a few rounds through it & it's pretty fun. The fire from the little baby ports is hilarious.

Ouch, last time I saw them at Academy (a few years ago now) they were running $199 new

Still really cool!

The pug model runs $315-$379 around here so a "rarer" model in that same range is pretty good.

I have a Pug and carry it every now and then when I can't carry anything else. I know it sounds silly but the Hornaday "Critical Defense" .22mag ammo and these little revolvers is better than nothing.

You're buying some cool stuff right now CTFireman. I really like that one in black!

That was not what I was expecting to see. Seriously though, they are neat little guns. I have a stainless version in 22 mag.

Congrats!

I don't plan on carrying the seecamp, just an addition to the collection. They are awesome quality & made locally.

In case anyone needs a nice pocket holster for one of these mini revolvers, check this guy out. Awesome quality, fast shipping, & cheap!

I've come close to the 22 mag that folds like a pocket knife.
May still get one some day.
Those kooky boys at Speer developed an SD Short Barrel round just for these pups.

My future father-in-law has a regular stainless one and its pretty neat(not folder) I hadnt thought about getting one until this thread. If you go by that pic of the expansion, it would be great. I wonder if that's the bullet form that 1.9" they tested it in. Your post makes me want the ribbed version, as the sights are better and the barrel Is over that 1.9 on some. Do you know what model the picture you posted is?

I listen to a few different podcasts, and you'd be surprised at how often someone mentions carrying one of these.

I have the 4" mini master model with the vent rib barrel in stainless, .22mag/lr combo. Absolutely a blast to shoot. Patterns nice at 7 yards with the CCI shotshells too. I have a set of the folding holster grips but I mostly carry it in a deep pocket with the stock rubber grip.

Oh and with the vent rib barrel anything that fits a dovetail mount will fit just fine

Congrats!

I used to have a standard .22 magnum model but now just have the tiny .22lr model with boot grips. I actually want to get the Sidewinder since it loads just like a real revolver but the cylinder swings out the opposite side.

My little .22lr that I use as a second gun in the pocket, in a self made pocket holster sometimes.

The Sidewinder I will buy just because.

That sidewinder looks pretty handy. I saw the break-top earlier but they are discontinued. I'd love to have any model that accommodates better reloads. I guess you could do an old-school reload and keep a spare cylinder.
