I can see a very good use or uses for it. Very nice little fishing gun if we were allowed to carry here in the Peoples Republik Of Maryland. Or a nice little plinking gun. Or, in some places where people have all their constitutional rights, a small light weight self defense revolver. Yes, I know, I know, a .22 according to some people is not as good as a sharp stick. Yeah. But in all reality, a half dozen s Stingers in the chest will ruin some low lifes evening. And nobody wants to get shot by anything.
But if you have a LCR center fire for defense, this would make a practice piece that would pay for itself after a few months, depending on how much you practiced with it. With cost of ammo in this post Obama new world, you can shoot a lot of .22's for the price of very little .38 specials or .357's!
Kind of like why I love my Smith and Wesson model 60 .38 special, and my model 63 for practice. I do a lot of double action work on the 63 for a fraction of what it would cost on the 60. Even if I reload.
