.22 Long Rifle Variants for Training
Barret KendrickDescription
When ammunition is expensive and difficult to secure, some shooters are reluctant to shoot what they’ve got and deplete their stockpile. That means little or no handgun training and practice, and we all know that’s not good. Manufacturers have taken note of this, and now several .22 Long Rifle variants of popular handguns are available.
With .22LR versions of a Smith & Wesson M&P and a Glock 19, PDN Contributor Barret Kendrick of Bearco Training discusses shooting these variants instead of the originals. What skills can you work on that are the same and what can’t you work on because they are too different? Barret encourages defensive-minded shooters to consider the .22LR option before the next ammunition crunch.

I personally train atleast three times a month and 2/3 of that time is using .22LR. Cheap, abundant and small storage CF.
