Any semi-auto style pistols currently being produced for the shorty?

If I remember correctly, .22 Short conversions were available for the Ruger semi-autos. I think Volquartsen made one. I didn't see it on their website with a quick look. GunBroker maybe?

There is one, not sure of the manufacturer, on ebay - https://picclick.com/Ruger-22-...on-224005146786.html

S&W used to market a 22 Short conversion for their Model 41 target pistol.

Should be a good selection of High Standards in the short on line for sale. Had a 106 Military grip Olympic with 2 barrels. With SV ammo, mostly CCI it was more accurate than all of my long rifle guns. BTW, there was and may still be a 41 on GB in .22 short but is quite expensive. S&W made conversion units also. Last one of those I saw and darn near bought was up in Mass. for $1,200.00 in the box.

You can still get EU target guns in the short also.

you can find HS Flitekings in 22 short relatively cheap, I just sold one on gunborker for 350.


make sure, if you buy vintage and online that it has the correct magazine,
replacements on those can be pricey,


Olympics, and Smith 41's will get pricey

Hurry and bid on GB. There are 4 Model 41s in .22 short and one is only up to 52 hundred... Big Grin.

"Any semi-auto style pistols currently being produced for the shorty?"

So I guess the answer to my question is no.
I am not looking to buy any old guns, I just wanted to know if anybody was CURRENTLY producing any.

I have a Beretta 950BS "Minx" in 22 Short. It's a neat little gun that functions perfectly; fun to shoot but with little practical use. However, production of those ceased, I think, in the 1980s.

In the 1970s I trained on Olympic Rapid Fire with a High Standard Olympic Model like the one McMillan used for Gold in 1960. Wish I still had it. Olympic RF is a hoot. For me it is the most fun bullseye type shooting. Especially the 4 second strings

I do have a bull barrel short conversion kit for a 106 &107 High Standard. Also 2 cases CCI target shorts. If I ever get around to it, I will put it on the market.

I still have a High Standard highly tweaked that I shot in the 70s and 80s in .22 Short.

I cleaned more 4 second runs than the others... no time to think... just go!

Bastards eliminated Free Pistol... perhaps the most demanding form of pistol shooting. I have the Russian Toz, shot a 97 once the hard way... last shot a “7” ☹️.

No chance against the AMU shooters, but still a lot of fun. Too bad I got old... almost 80!

It is a very fun round to shoot and the ammo is easily obtainable.
