Mouseguns

[JCN]

It's no larger than a PM9. Maybe a bit smaller. I like the Kahr trigger (I have a K9) but it doesn't feel like a "real" DA to me. The Boberg did (and is). Had a good feel in the hand, too--weight notwithstanding.

You know what? You are right.

It was MY memory that was wrong.

My apologies. It’s smaller than I remember.



Still heavy though.

I was out on a hike with a GF years ago, she said to go ahead so she could do some girl thing or other,....a few minutes later I hear Bang!. Hmm, I walked back to find her sitting on the ground, her Llama mini-sized 1911-ish 22 purse gun was in pieces around her, she was trying to put it back together. She had seen a squirrel and decided to shoot it, at the shot the slide launched off the frame and came apart into a couple pieces. She missed the squirrel also .

The first pistol i ever bought was a Llama miniature 1911 in .22. This was in 1977. It worked well for almost a full carton of shells. But one day the 7 round mag was empty after only 3 "shots." I tried it again, paying attention to the cases as they ejected and sure enough, it was putting out 2 and 3 round bursts with each pull of the trigger. Local gunsmith fixed the problem and i promptly sold it to him.

My wife is a pet sitter and i have assisted her in caring for a llama rescue farm. The animal version is even nastier than the firearm!

Bro... You live where there are more bears than people.

Why would you carry a pocket gun?

One doesn't shoot the bear with the mousegun. One slows his friend down with the mousegun.😁

I got lucky with my two Kel-tecs, a P32 and a P11. My P32 is the regionally infamous couch gun. Never had a problem, the guns ran. Carried easily, had pocket clips, and the pocket clips introduced me to AIWB.

Neither has seen a lot of use. I have begun a wild, passionate love affair with my 9mm LCR. I don't see myself going back. A moon clip, a speed strip, a Philster Enigma and a City special, and maybe a nice Kramer, Nelson, or Five Shot ankle rig for duty use. I also see a .327 mag in my future, which due to ammo selection and the sixth chamber could likely replace my 9 LCR.

Full auto mousegun... that's awesome. I couldn't agree more about llamas. Anything in the camel family is evil at heart. The more humps the more evil.

Back in the '90s, I was home from school and someone had a .22 pistol. Went out to some public land where people shot. Similarly, the pistol ended up being empty after 4 or 5 rounds. My recollection is that it wasn't actually firing doubles and triples, it was just throwing extra cartridges out on the ground. I do recall that when I looked at it to see if anything obvious made sense, it was marked for .22 Long and he'd brought .22 LR cartridges. Figured it must be something with the extra power screwing up the cycling. No idea what gun it was, as I wasn't at all into guns at the time.

I started with mouse guns at a pretty early age.

My heart loves bottleneck pistol cartridges even if my mind knows the juice is rarely worth the squeeze.

Perhaps feeding reliability is improved, but gel testing shows little improvement in terminal ballistics over the parent cartridge.

Yea it's not really a big bump up.

The load I need to actually work up and test is a Lehigh Extreme Cavitator https://www.lehighdefense.com/311-ca...n-bullets.html - Just waiting to actually get some bullets from Lehigh.

Also not a ton of info on reloading .32 NAA so I have to work up a base recipe too with 71-grain FMJs.

The mousegun thread got me thinking. I was looking at the web site where you can compare different pistols. https://www.handgunhero.com/compare/...sson-model-642

That Kahr is a tiny little pistol. I wish it was as reliable with the 7 round mags as it is with the 6 rounder. So I ordered some springs to see what I could do. Any advice? I thought I saw somewhere that there are different generations of mags. I carried the Kahr for a while and decided that the 7 round mags were just a handy way to carry extra rounds to top off my 6 rounder. Also, rounds would pop out of the mags when carried in my pocket.

I added some mag springs for my KelTec P11 while I was at it.

I also bid on a Ruger LCR 9mm on Gunbroker.
