So as I mentioned in the rifle section I was thinking about picking up a Savage bolt action .22 LR. Well I think my plans may have changed. I was reading Kim du Tiot's blog and saw his preferred web pages for ammo purchases and I stumbled on this.

So I'm going to do a little looking at some local FFL's and see how things work out. Already found a site that sells a parts kit with factory springs and pins. Figure I'll buy a Blade Tech holster, seem to be one of the few people that make holsters for the gun, and another two spare mags. Maybe at some point if the deal goes through I'll see about refinishing it, but then again there's nothing wrong with a pistol that shows that it was actually used ether.

The P255 is a true Gem of a pistol. It does everything well and has little downsides.
I just don't really care for the caliber all that much, but it will do.
I wonder if a clever gunsmith could convert that to a .40.

With a quality +P hollowpoint like a silvertip, golden saber, or hydrashock I'm sure it will do fine if it is ever needed. But at least it's inexpensive to shoot as far as centerfire goes.

As to .40, well it's suppose to be a compact P220 pistol so who knows. But seeing as these are German police trade-ins and as I recall .40 considerably exceeds 9mm pressure ratings I wouldn't bank on it.
