Default .22 TCM

Anyone have any experience with the .22 TCM? Seems like a bad little round worthy of tinkering with...

I take it the answer is no. Here is a pick of the ammo - looking for a pistol now.

I don't know anyone with experience, but I do know I will convert my Glock 17 if they ever make it possible.

Ammo is in stock at cheaper than dirt. 50 rounds for $23.

let's just say it's bad a$$. The only current firearm (to my knowledge) that it is offered in, is a 1911. It has a muzzle velocity of @2,100fps and I believe 18+1 capacity. Very similar to a 5.7 FNH but the cost is substantially lower at @ $600. Also, the 1911 can be converted to shoot 9mm with a simple barrel swap.

I talked to a guy that claims he was accurately putting rounds on target at 100 yards with an FNH 5.7 so I imagine accuracy wouldn't be an issue with this round either.

2100fps is 2X as fast as a 9mm, 40, 45, etc.

Evidently there are none of these to be found anywhere. Although my dealer offered me a S&W M&P .40 with night sights for $500. Too good to pass up… He has two more just like it but is located in N. Houston.

Yeah, I have a dealer that hooks me up

While they don't have any .22TCMs at the boat show, they do have a 25ft. Shallow Sport with your name written all over it.
