Crickett pistol

Anybody ever use one of these for silhouette?

For less than $175 it looks like fun to play with. From what I read they are quite accurate.

I have seen a few but did not try them.  If you already had a t/c contender frame you could add a .22 barrel for around the same outlay if you could live with the factory sights.

I talked to a guy last week at a shoot said he loved his  and had shot a couple of 40's with it (IHMSA)
I watched his very small son shoot it and he was wearing them out

I got mine last weekend. Picked it up from my favorite gun dealer while he was at a gun show. I also found a deal on an old El Paso T-10 so that came home with me too. I mounted up the scope (their factory mounts are lame. I'm gonna make a decent one soon.) and tried it out at the range. Off the bench it kept most shots touching at 50 yards, and could hit a golf ball sized target most of the time at 100. Trigger is terrible, but I can fix that.

Today I shot it in a match (see the post about taco style revolver shooting for the other gun) and finished with a 30. Funny thing was it was also a pistol caliber lever gun match and I got the highest score of anybody. Woo-hoo, this thing really shoots! It's reasonably comfortable to hold, super simple to operate, and once I get the trigger done it's going to be really sweet.

So, if anybody wants a nice simple .22 pistol check these out. They really do work and look like they'll hold up reasonably well. (ask me about that in a few years...)
