Maybe 9 rounds in that cylinder. Again, how big do you want your cylinder on a rimfire? S&W runs 10 rounds in their 617 K-frame in 22LR. Magnum runs much higher pressures and is a tiny big bigger diameter casing.

Very informative analysis, I love 22 magnum because of its velocity, penetration and damage capacity and you can also carry as much ammunition due to the lightness of its weight..its a juniour editon of 556...

The KISS principal. Revolvers are a great starter gun for 1st time shooters. Also great for home defense. Especially in .38 or 357 mag. I always believe most gun owners need at least 2 revolvers. 1 in .22 lr or mag. and the other in at least 357/38 cal..

A semi-automatic firearm is a dynamic type of firearm, it must feed from a magazine, then feed up a ramp, chamber, fire, extract and eject successfully, whilst there may be fewer parts, success in a dynamic firearm is fraught with difficulty and could be problematic vs a revolver. A revolver is a passive firearm. It utilizes a cylinder, so no feeding or ejection takes place, bad scenario: a squib load (no powder) lodges a bullet between the forcing cone cylinder gap, tying up the revolver, by that point requiring another firearm, or revolver. Worst case scenario, the bullet lodges into the barrels rifling, allowing another round to fire, exploding the firearm.

.22 rifle with a high velocity 40gr hollow point actually hits pretty hard if you ask me. Definitely a viable self defense choice. Try CCI Velocitor ammo.

Since my hands are about shot I love the .22/.22 mag. The mags are so expensive though. This is one weapon I'd love to own.

Revolvers will never be obsolete...double or single action...I own and enjoy quite a few from .22 rimfire to .45 Colt 😍😍😍 I would like to add one of those to my rotation so I’m looking for one (I know “good luck to me here in the current 2021 gun and ammo shortage”). Good video and channel 👍👍👍

Quite a nice pistol you have there. .22 mag is no slouch. It is good enough for me. It doesnt sound like a cannon going off like a .357 mag does, but itll do the job at hand. I like the fact its a 4 inch barrel. The trigger pull can be worked so its not so heavy. It looks quite promising as an import.

Those are very good revolves. I have stainless 4 inch 357 mag since 4 years. It is exceptionally good.

Melbourne Beach Florida 🌴. I've had my NAA stainless 5 shot 22M for 25 years& love it.

Thanks for the review. I've been looking for a 22 Magnum... In my searches been few & far between. My permit will be hopefully arrive just in time to order one of these. Thanks Much for the review.

.22mag is excellent for older people or those with arthritis where recoil would prevent the owner from ever practicing or even having fun vs being in pain for practicing. Plus, it's all about placement and with me, I'm far more accurate with a .22mag than any 9mm. So ramp up stress in a difficult situation and in that moment I'd want the easiest firearm that works. Now if I'm in Russias woods and a remote cabin and a bear is coming at me then I'd want a .357 but if I'm 90yo and living in an urban apartment, I'd rather have a .22mag for precision shots, and the least amount of over penetration.

@timrobinson6573

Because rim fire cartridges require a more forceful hammer blow to reliably detonate the primer, the revolvers that shoot rimfire cartridges have heavier hammer springs and therefor heavier trigger pulls. This can be an issue for people with arthritis or weak grip strength.

Good safety recommendation. 22 mag is a great round with great penetration, if you need that. .38 can be a great carry gun if you don't want penetration. When would you want that? Depends on ammo, your target and use. I like a slow moving .38, it is more accurate at 50 to 100 yards. Anything inside of that is MINE at less distance, with the right ammo.

Looks pretty interesting & solid.... Maybe RIA would consider a 'twin cylinder / .22lr + .22 Win Mag set'. I'd suggest looking into cylinder / chamber consistency, thus better accuracy though... Many thanks for your awsome work & great video!!🤗🙏

I love revolvers, my favorite things to shoot, based on my personnel experiences they are the most reliable firearms next to single shot.

good coverage of the AL22M bro, will probably share this to my community tomorrow, i got the AL22 in this last weekend, looking forward to finishing up my review work on it soon, so far am liking it

I run a Ruger Single Six with 6.5" barrel in 22wmr. The round shines with longer barrels. That's the key to achieving solid energy.

Nice vid. I love 22mag. Most recent purchase-Ruger single 9. Impractical but a lot of fun.

The cylinder rotation ratchet @6:50 is of such a simple ingenious design.

That's nice. I have a Colt Diamondback that I converted from .22LR to .22WMR. It's a fun shooter.

I like that you use a support to show how precise the gun will shoot. Then I like how you shoot it offhand to show the ergonomics of the gun. You have a nice speaking style. You're not even too ugly.

Excellent czech arms know/ how. Respect.

A quick look today in mid-February 2021 on the Armscor site does not show any .22 revolvers at all. The DA pull is necessarily heavy on rimfire revolvers due to the spotty ignition power in DA mode and the dirtiness of rimfire ammunition- the cases don't always seat well after a few rounds due to the dirt left behind, which moderates the firing pin strike.

I bought the AL9.0 after your review and it was spot on. This one also looks interesting.

This is nice. I have a M&P 22 but would love to add this to my collection.

Another good video , I enjoy revolvers as well , just good ole fun. Looks to be a well built revolver.

Appropriate for any occasion. Color is straight. Very fashionable. Masculine. Friendly fire. A mans best friend. Nice gun. I smell the quality. It is what Smith and Wesson could have been... Eastern European.

Alfa Proj has been around for a while now and has a solid rep but the main importer is Czechpoint. And Czechpoint is almost always outta stock! Like, even before this seeming apocalypse started they just seem to lack the ability to meet demand. Hopefully Armscor will be able to get a gun into the holster of everyone that wants one. Hell, hopefully Armscor will move on to include other Alfa Proj offerings as well! Having one of their wheelguns in .32 long would be fun.
