I like mine. It was a little stiff at first. I put Firesights on mine and had to cut them down a bit to clear the scope base.
A bunch of modifications are available also. I have a red dot and a conventional scope for it also. Maybe a suppressor some day.

I want one with a can and a Burris Fastfire so bad I can taste it. LOL

I have one. Because it is an a very light handgun I found the Burris red dot bounced around enough to be distracting while trying to get an accurate shot. I like the open sights much better. A can makes them very barrel heavy. They are a great trail gun.

Opinions on the pistol? Was thinking of one as woods walking pistol. Wife got me one for Christmas last year, i had wanted one for that exact purpose. i've been pretty happy with it...mine is all still stock, but i had been talking with a friend of ours who shoots some local matches and he modded his with some VQ parts and ended up with a considerably smoother trigger, and the mods now allow his mags to drop freely when speed reloading. mag drop is not an issue with me, but i think i'll spend the loot to do the trigger upgrade. i havent shot mine much, but so far it has functioned fine with bulk Winchester & Federal ammo...nice trail gun.

Mine shoots well, but it does not digest everything. Very, very light. Crazy light in my opinion.
I bought it because it was threaded. Needs a can.

I'll have to take a picture of mine with the can on it. I really like the gun, I shoot it every week at bowling pin tops. I won tonight's RF match.

So far mine has been exactly what I wanted, reliable, accurate, and LIGHT. The older I get the lighter I want my guns to be. Ken

Have one NIB waiting on my can to be approved. See some mods on this thread I might make.

Yep I am jealous of BEA175's set up. First thing is loose the mag safety I think.

My 22/45 lite, perfect for a suppressor, as it adds a little weight! Vq hammer and sear, tandem cross bushing to delete the magazine safety, tandem cross spring assist +1 magazine base, tandem cross loaded chamber indicator delete! So far out of many different kinds of ammo, i found out it hates remington golden bullets! Aac element 2 suppressor. Staple gun quiet!

I just got the new aluminum colored one with the holes drilled in the barrel, will give it a whirl. Thank you BEA175 for the sight info!

Right now I have both a red dot and a laser mounted. I'm faster with a laser on there but much more accurate with the red dot. I've been shooting this 22/45 with the can and optics every week for close to 2years now and I place in the top 3 shooters every week.
