What do you think about this? A tier above the Smith compact?
This is $100 more than the S/W M/P 22LR Compact.
Is it a tier above the Smith Compaact, or just another like the others: Ruger SR, Walther P22 or PPK (if that is correct letters), Bersa Thunder.
Then there is a couple of Brownings (1911 and something else). Are they a tier above what I have mentioned and is on par with the Beretta M-9 22 (if it is a tier above)
Beretta USA M9-22
$398.00
Beretta's M9-22 is an exact replica of the M9 in .22 caliber and features the same operation, controls and takedown as the venerable Beretta M9. M9-22 features removable sights, interchangeable grip panels. Beretta's Bruniton finish with military-style markings is highly resistant to sweat and corrosion, and a tool-free disassembly latch makes it simple and quick to take the pistol apart for cleaning. This semi-auto pistol has a reversible magazine release and an ambidextrous safety/decocker making it suitable for right- or left-handed shooters. This model has a 5.3" barrel and comes with a 15-round magazine.

Flatsixshooter is a Beretta nut and he has gotten my attention to look at Beretta, though he's never commented to me about the Beretta M-9 22.
Since I'm close to buying the Smith M/P Compact 22LR, perhaps I should spend more and get the Beretta ($400/Hoosier Armory), then I wonder if I should spend more and get the Browning 1911: it gives me pause b/c there is no end.
I can always buy and sell like I did with the 9mms last summer, but I'm trying to avoid that by buying smart, which, b/c of the price of used 22s, I can't "steal" those like in the .380, 9mm and 45mm: blasted 22 should not be such a hassle.
