Barrel length for .22 magnum ?

[JES14352]

Which barrel length do you all prefer on your mini .22 magnum or .22 LR

[TwoGunJayne]

The "2 inch" claim of the Black Widow works for me.

[SteveZ-FL]

Am not looking for the greatest performance, but rather reliability combined with utmost concealability.  The 1 1/8 has been with me for many years, is easy to hide and has never misfired. Am quite satisfied!

[PRM]

I've got the BW with the 2 inch barrel.  If they ever make it in a 3 inch - I'll have one.

[Bigbird48]

Here we go again  LOL  I've said it many times 1-5/8 on my Black Jack Talo, best of all worlds IMHO of course , very light, don't even know its in your pocket, great punch with good velocity , and the ultimate in coolness

[Uncle_Lee]

I want a pair of 4" Sidewinders.
Or a pair of 9.5" Sidewinders.
Or a pair of 3" 32 acp minis.

[G50AE]

I want a single stack pocket sized Glock in 380ACP, with an option for a conversion barrel to .32NAA.

Diamondback DB380 is what you want.  I went with 1 5/8".  I'd have a Sidewinder if it came in that length.

[Dinadan]

I do not find that there is any significant difference in concealability between the 1 1/8" and 1 5/8" minis. I think that the 1 5/8" has a more balanced and pleasing look than the 1 1/8" mini: that is why I prefer the 1 5/8".

I want a Black Jack Talo with the short barrel and the wood grips PLEASE!!!!!

I'd rather have the real thing instead of some blatantly inferior Glock knock-off.  Too bad the real thing isn't available, yet.

1 5/8" is working for me right now.  Haven't fired a 1 1/8" yet so that could change when I do.

[Mandodoc]

I voted 1 5/8, so now my 1 5/8 loves me but my 1 1/8 is giving me dirty looks 

[Bigbird48]

  @ Doc, hey give the 1-1/8 a couple soft strokes across it cylinder and put him in your weak side pocket. He'll love you again and think he's being useful.

[grayelky]

Having carried a 1 1/8 LR, a 1 1/8 mag and a 1 5/8 mag, it is very difficult to tell a difference in them. I opt for the slight velocity advantage of the 1 5/8 barrel. I have not tried a BW yet, but with only an additional 3/8" barrel, I can't help but feel it would not make much difference. I would swap out the oversized grips for the "standard" smooth grips, but that is personal preference.

[Bigbird48]

GrayElk try the Black Widow, you'll find a significant difference going from 1-5/8 to 2 " The black Widow is much more noticeable in your pocket then a 1-5/8, Even if you put the regular grips on I think you'll be very surprised.

Sorry, I just sold both of mine.

That sounds like it might get me out of trouble. I'll see how it goes........

Any one got a picture of the Black Widow with regular grips on it ?

[nastruck]

My mini and BW with the slip on NAA grip

[TeeJay37]

Are those the same grips as the Pug? Do they just slip over the standard wood grips?

[nastruck]

YES!!!!
And they fit perfect

[TeeJay37]

So, for the Black Widow, you'd have to buy a set of wood or other standard grips and the slip-on?
How do you like it, compared to the oversize rubber BW grip?

Rubber grips slip over frame , NOT over another set of grips.

[tocsn40]

Okay, thanks.
