I've been thinking lately about using .22 LR micro pistols as training guns for other pocket guns like the LCP or P3AT because .380 in the small micro pistols is painful and after a dozen or so shots, I start to get the shakes and I'm sure I'm not the only one who gets those shakes and it throws everything off.
Then I thought that if they make .22 Glock uppers and 1911's in .22 LR, why don't they make .22 LR versions of the LCP or other .380 micro pistols? They don't cost very much already and they'd make perfect trainers because they'd allow shooters to stay at the range and practice longer with the exact gun they carry and the ammo would cost a lot less too. I'm sure that there are some design challenges and quirks, but Ruger and S&W are filled with smart people who could come up with something.
Idk, is this a great idea or am I just a stupid kid with a dream?
