 Hey there friends, thanks for checking in today. We're looking at Rock Island Armory Revolvers these are made by Alpha Proj in the Czech Republic Imported by Rock Island Armory and this one's called the AL 3.0 357 Magnum. It's a six-shot. This also comes with a Stainless model. They also make a 9 millimeter model and now they make 22 long rifle and 22 magnum And that is what this video is about I've always enjoyed that. It shoots really nice, but here we have the AL 22M 0.0 chambered in 22 magnum It's an 8-shot and it is a heavy-duty revolver. You can see it has the same type of rubber grip Which I think is nice. It has a very nice feel to it does have finger grooves in there and some Dots raised dots there which adds texturing But it's a heavy-duty revolver 22 magnum. They also make this a 22 long rifle now This is an 8-shot the 22 long rifle is a 9-shot But let's take a minute and talk about that. I want to discuss why I went with the 22 magnum Here's the 22 magnum. Here's the 22 long rifle both rimfires. Most people know this some people may not but the 22 long rifle Travels at 1,260 feet per second at least the CCI round does the 22 magnum is traveling at 1,875 feet per second, so it is a more powerful round both 40-grain bullets and then of course you have the 22 TCM right here this travels over 2,200 feet per second with a 40-grain bullet so The 22 magnum is like a great in-between The very fast 22 TCM and the 22 long rifle. It's a very cool in-between now when I review other Revolvers for example this one Here's a Ruger Wrangler 22 long rifle people said make that in 22 magnum I would like a revolver in 22 magnum. Well Rock Island did that with the ALM 0.0 Most people call it AL 22M But it does say 0.0 on there also made by Alpha Proj imported by Rock Island from the Czech Republic Now you look at that full under lug so it's got some front-end weight raised up front sight orange insert Adjustable rear sight serrated black Right for a pretty nice sight picture a four inch barrel already mentioned in eight shot Okay, and you take a look in here, and it's got all that we know there's the forcing cone the yoke The bolt stop and we've got the the timing hand the firing pin It's all there In a beautiful Blued finish now this is the first time you saw on video the blued finish the stainless is out there and Reviews have been made, but this is the blued finish and I chose the blued finish on this one. I Think it looks great, and I think it looks great on this as well Let's take a look at that trigger. I am measuring it at a solid four and a half pounds in single action Which is is not bad, you know some revolver triggers, you know single action you're looking at Between five and six pounds and lighter is not always better But sometimes it is it's kind of nice you you're on target just squeeze that trigger a bit and you fire and then with the four inch barrel you know That accuracy should be fine so long as the sights do what they're supposed to take a look at the business end But I mentioned it's heavy. It's got it's got some weight behind it. Let's go ahead and take a look at the weight Another thing this has That I did not mentioned is recessed chambers. So when you put that 22 Magnum in there Sits really flush in the cylinder. All right, and that's another thing that the 357 model has is recessed chambers and That's nice that that to me is an Additional feature that often don't see with many modern revolvers Two-pound seven and five eight ounces. Didn't I tell you it was heavy? We move that to just ounces 39 and a half but what I have here are Eight rounds of 22 Magnum. Let's see if I can stay on the scale Okay, I got it close 40 and three-quarters ounces With eight rounds and I've got 22 Magnum all over the place here, but that's all right You're looking at them. You know the 600s mid 600s somewhere in there for this. All right, I'm going to check again. We had a whole bunch of ammo there okay, it does have the ejecting rod You know the full under lug mentioned that you know, you're looking at no recoil This would be a great training tool small game hunting even self-defense, you know If you are comfortable with a revolver if you're one of the people who say my comfort level for reliability is with a revolver And you want more than six shots. Here's eight shots. You know, I'm not saying it's better But I'm saying it is an option and I do think that these alpha prize revolvers are really nice I I've been impressed with them. I've reviewed just about every one except for the 22 long rifle But I do have the 22 Magnum and I am going to take it to the range very shortly I've got some 22 Magnum right here and You know the 40 grain bullet traveling at 1875 feet per second definitely a nice round I Shot several 22 magnums, and I'm looking forward to getting some more ammo to do a thorough range review But this thing is really cool. I'm happy with it. I love the grip too by the way, you know It's the same one on all the ones imported By Rock Island from Alpha project the Czech Republic and it's got a great feel to it And I just know the thing is gonna be really cool if you like videos like this, please subscribe and share I always appreciate thumbs up button.
