    Default Ok im buying more guns.....help needed

    Spinning off from my previous post "i think i have a problem" located here http://www.pafoa.org/forum/general-2...e-problem.html
    Im taking ShakeyDads advice and getting my lady involved in shooting. I want to get her a .22 pistol to just plink with something that will be cheap to shoot while still being able to spend time with me while i work on grip and stance and draw techniques at my weekly visits to the range. Im really debating between two models, the Walther P22 and the SIG mesquito. She like the walther because it looks "pretty" and its a little bit small than the sig. But we all know we dont buy firearms based on the way they look lol. Anyone have any experience with any of the two models.


    Know on the other hand Im also looking for another carry piece, and it kind of up in the air between the CZ rami 9mm (pics below) and the S&W M&P compact 9MM. I havent shot either and both feel good in the hand, also once again anyone have any exp. with either model?

    I have a P22 and I like it. Compact and easy to shoot. Not the most accurate rim fire out there, but it gets the target full of holes!

    As for the the 9mm...I'd go for the M&P personally but both choices are equally good!

    Make sure you handle the Rami before buying, its a nice little gun and is reliable IN 9MM but it is not for everybody it has a very short grip that feels weird in your hand , unless you have small hands.

    My personal experience with the Walther was less than stellar. Not alot of fun to strip, not accurate, not worth the price tag. The upside is it might be sized just right for your lady, and they come with backstraps to customize the grip, so it may be really comfortable for her. If it's comfortable, she may enjoy your range time together more.

    I have a P22, and I'm not too fond of it. I'm actually thinking about selling it. I bought it new, only has about 50 rounds through it. I just don't find it too comfortable to hold, no matter which backstrap I use, as my hands are too big.
