They actually made a semi auto version but because of the characteristics of the round it was pretty much recalled. Now every manufacturer has a warning to not use in an auto pistol.

A revolver would probably work out just fine. However, the .17 suffers a similar fate as a lot of semi-auto .22 pistols (and even rifles in some instances) where there simply isn't enough muzzle energy to cycle the action reliably.

I still prefer this .17:

.17 Remington - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

What I use for feral cats and pesky rabbits around here:
Marlin model 39M .22




I save the 10/22 for the ones that run.....

I got a single shot .410 in the barn for them kinda deals
Last critter I had to displace was a skunk that was sick or something, he couldn't spray my blue heeler that found him next to the barn. All my wife was worried about was a kleen kill, hell he was only 10yds when I shot him.
