Am thinking of the Beretta Model 87 in 22 rimfire as a practice, training gun for my real gun, a Kahr 9mm. Physical dimensions, weight and barrel length (3.8 vs 3.5) are almost the same and we all know 22 ammo is much cheaper. Shooting IDPA defensive style at very short range. Anybody had any real life experience with the Beretta ? ----------------------------------------------------------- Learn about rec.guns at http://www.recguns.com -----------------------------------------------------------

Hi John I have one and it is a nice .22, especially for a left-hander like me. It certainly will give you good cheap practice with your sight alignment and trigger control, but I would think the differences in recoil between it and your 9mm will not help you as much as you would hope. Mine is probably 15 years old by now and I have had not trouble with it ever.
