Beretta 87 Cheetah In .22 LR ?

This gun keeps catching my eye. Has anyone handled or fired one? The only thing that concerns me is the alloy frame, and how well it would hold up over time wear wise? The fact it's a .22 means it would see a lot of shooting. I own a alloy framed Sig P-226 and a full size Beretta 92 FS, but I haven't put enough downrange with either yet to judge longevity. I don't think Beretta even makes a steel framed semi. This looks like a really nice compact .22, although a bit pricey.  Bill T.

I've owned the .380 version for many years. it's one of the best fit & finished pistols I've ever seen. It's never been put through much hard shooting but seems very overbuilt and engineered for .22lr.
