No, as I said, I have my carry gun already (my Bersa). I am looking for a "plinker" - something dirt cheap to shoot. I like the "look" of the Mosquito and the feel of it in my hand. I'm not adverse to checking out other inexpensive .22s, though.AxeMental wrote: If your looking for a fair priced carry gun small enough to stick in a loose pocket (but still full sized) that you never have to worry about jamming, I'd pick up a SW Airweight .38 revolver.

My plinker is a Ruger 22/45, which is essentially their classic target pistol design with a wider grip analogous to a 45s grip. I found it for around $300, and is alot of fun to shoot. I have put at least 1000 rounds through mine (probably more), and have had no issues.

That's pretty cool, Quatzl. I've heard of them but not seen one before.quatzl wrote:As I mentioned, this may work for you. You can find it cheaper elsewhere though.
