Rock Island's XT-22 Magnum answers a question 1911 shooters have asked for years: what if you could train on the platform you carry without paying centerfire prices? It's a full-size 1911 in layout and feel — same grip angle, same manual of arms, same thumb and grip safeties — chambered in .22 WMR with a 5-inch barrel.

The Target configuration adds an upswept beavertail grip safety and fully adjustable sights, so it's set up for precision rather than just plinking. The .22 Magnum is a meaningful step up from .22 LR in velocity and energy, making this a legitimate small-game and pest pistol as well as a very inexpensive way to put a lot of rounds through a 1911 grip.
