22tcm 1911

Hey guys
does anyone in the CGN world have any information about 1911's chambered in 22TCM? I've always had a soft spot for 1911's and believe that a true 1911 is chambered in .45acp but in the past few months I have done hours of research on 1911's and have learned that you can buy them in several different calibers, and was wondering if anyone here has any info about .22TCM and where to buy a 1911 chambered in this caliber. I love .45 but i think .22TCM might be a caliber that the whole family can shoot and will still have enough stopping power if ever needed.

The only place I know of off hand is Trigger Wholesale, one of the CGN site sponsors. They bill themselves as the exclusive distributor for Rock Island Armory/Armscor. Their website shows a TCM/9mm 1911 for a little over $1000. They also show a bolt gun in 22 TCM.

Your guess is as good as mine when it comes to locating ammo. AFAIK Armscor is the only mfg and last I looked it was pretty scarce in the US.

thanks Turf ill check them out. seems like I might be better off just buying a cheap .22 1911 for plinking and a .45 for home defence.
