Absolutely not! You can get away with a lot with a simple paper sack over your head to hide your identity. I know this to be true.

First I've heard of this unless I forgot when I seen it before.

I too am kind of interested. Need to check out ammo price and availability. I'd love to have one.

I have lots of paper sacks, I'm forced to drive a Ford.

I proudly drive a Ford by choice. What does that say about me?

His index finger certainly has an affinity for the muzzle. He speaks well and appears to be knowledgeable about the gun. But, his habit of putting his finger on the end of the barrel may get him in trouble someday.

I drove Fords by choice. Now I can't drive anything cause I can't see well enough.

My cars are usually about that old when I buy em. Car salesman say I should shop more often so I don't get sticker shock so bad.

Who knew a new car is over 10,000 now days. And Pickups! I'd have to live in it. Maybe HUD will starting doing truck loans soon.

LGS/Range had one but it didn't come with the extra 9mm barrel... I too was wondering about the ammo thinking it would be outrageous but it wasn't, $32.00 a box of 50.....Interesting concept especially if you get the extra barrel....I think the magazine is the same since a .22TCM is 9mm brass necked down to .22....The Sportsman channel did a show on the Rock Island factory in the Philippines and they are an impressive modern company with quality control being very important in their manufacturing process...The Rock Island 1911 pistols are well made on new CNC equipment and sell for a very competitive price....I normally like USA made guns but after seeing the program I would feel just fine about the quality in a Rock Island pistol and having two calibers for the price of one sweetens the deal that much more...

Only drawback to the .22 TCM might be ammo availability but you would still have a nice Mil Spec 9mm 1911 if you couldn't find the TCM ammo....The show shot the TCM through a chrono and it's some smokin hot stuff but extreemly loud and it makes quite a bit of muzzle blast so you might not make many friends at the range but as a self defense round the .22 TCM has a lot going for it and I hope it picks up a following so it will be reasonable to shoot unlike the FN 5.7

I like the 22TCM . Kinda waiting for the 22tcm r2 to show up and here some reviews . That might cause me to buy a glock 19 just for the TCM kit .

I'm waiting on some good FMJ to be produced in 22tcm (if it ever does) before ordering any conversion...the current offerings are soft bullets that deform and don't penetrate very well
