In my opinion, pistols are great until you actually start shooting coons out. I had the same idea once, that I would buy a nice pistol to start toting around with me in the woods. I could never find one that was accurate enough at long ranges or wasn't totally cumbersome to lug around.
About the best one I found was the Keystone Sporting Arms Chipmunk .22LR Pistol. These are the same fellas that make the famous "Cricket" .22 Rifles for kids.
The Chipmunk pistol was a tack driver but had its down falls. The pistol is larger then what you would expect, so no holster would fit it. Too big for a holster and too small for a sling.
Also, it's a bolt action single shot, so make sure you've got an extra shell in your teeth, ready to chamber at short notice.
I'm still lugging around my old Marlin .22LR I've had since 13. Tride and true, even if it is heavy.
