is that a 10/22 style magazine release in front of the trigger guard?
wouldn't a detachable magazine not in the handgrip be evil?
i can't see fitting 9 rounds of 22wmr inside that reciever

Assault pistol:
3. A semiautomatic pistol that has an ability to accept a detachable magazine and has at least 2 of the following features:


* an ammunition magazine that attaches to the pistol outside of the pistol grip.

* a threaded barrel capable of accepting a barrel extender, flash suppressor, forward handgrip or silencer.

* a shroud that is attached to, or partially or completely encircles the barrel and that permits the shooter to hold the firearm with the non-trigger hand without being burned.

* a manufactured weight of 50 ounces or more when the pistol is unloaded.

* a semiautomatic version of an automatic firearm.

it looks like the detachable mag is OK just don't ever thread the barrel

dZ,

is that a 10/22 style magazine release in front of the trigger guard?

Much like the far-cheesier Tec-22, the Cheetah appears to be pretty much a 10/22 action in pistol form.

I though Beretta had a lock on all the "cat" names.

That gives me a use for all the Butler Creek 25 round mags I have in the closet!
