Posting the photo doesn't do much good. Why not a link to the listing you saw?Anyone know info on this? Saw this in the "sold" on Budgun shop. There was one sold with a 10rd mags and another with a 12rd mags.

But, as evolution said, if it was out there we probably would have already heard about it.
That is SUPER interesting...
Anyone have anymore info on this?
EDIT: On the phone with smith right now. This is REAL...more info forthcoming, they dont have much to tell me but i will let you know what i find.
EDIT 2.0: Ok guys. Its being made by Walther in Germany, not in house by Smith. I wish it was a genuine Smith product but for a .22 it should be "good enough". MSRP is 419.99 so we should see this in the range that buds has theirs listed. There are two versions, 10 and 12 rounders. The gentleman that i spoke with had no info about whether or not the thumb safety worked but im hoping it does.
They are expecting an order of 2500 units in April of 2011.
NEAT!
Thank you for running that down for us. If it was a real S&W I would have ordered it from Bud's sight unseen. Not sure what I think about a Walther made one. Opinions?EDIT 2.0: Ok guys.

Edited to add: And kudos to Mikexaz2323 for first posting about it!
Edited again to add: I thought so, but had to look it up - Walther made the "Colt" branded 22LR M4gery and most people seem to prefer the real M&P15-22 instead. Also, Walther's own 22 pistol, the P22 - I seem to recall lots of post about problems such as feed and eject, but I could be wrong.
Again, what do the rest of you think about this (Walther, that is)?
I'm with you on this Max, I am going to "hide and watch" also. In the meantime, even though it isn't an M&P, I'll keep shooting my Browning Buck Mark when I want 22LR pistol trigger time.For the time being, I'm going to hide and watch.Looks and sounds good, I'd like to see if there's many (if any), bugs. I'd feel better (and more than likely get one), if they were made here in the USA by S&W.![]()
