AMT Lightning

[tlawler]

I'll report when I have a chance to shoot it

It was $ 420.-

I saw one at a Port Charlotte gun show a few months back. Beautifully made gun from what I was able to observe. I had never seen one either and did a little internet searching while I walked around the show. Had the money in my pocket and considered it, but ultimately didn't get it. If I recall, the asking price was $550.

Not sure how AMT got away with copying so closely the Ruger MK II, or if they actually did get away with it.

AMT copied the Ruger 10-22, in stainless, also.

 

[CLASSIC12]

I took it to the 25 m indoor range yesterday. It shot a bit high for my liking, so I aimed slightly below 6 o'clock

Then I rested it on a bag for fine tuning the sights

Just a couple clicks were enough to produce good results

Then some more offhand shooting

I am super happy with this pistol. I shot 110 rounds of high velocity ammo (Eley force), not a single hiccup, gun was totally reliable including the last 30 rounds at very high pace. It's heavy but well balanced, very stable, and the trigger is very good.
