That's a MUCH better option than the .22 mag pistols. .22 mag is a cast iron bitch of a cartridge to make work in a semi-auto. This pistol gives you everything you want from a .22 mag and SO MUCH MORE. I'm not big on the 5.7 for defense, but it has been well established that it does work. Now as a field pistol, this could be the chit!!! That is one FUN and flat shooting handgun cartridge.
