Did anyone happen to notice the .22 Magnum 1911 @ SHOT?

I read about it here: http://www.gunmartblog.com/2012/01/22-magnum-1911-from-rock-island-armory.html

Also here: http://ezine.m1911.org/showthread.php?t=120

I know we will soon hear from Byron about how this is only as powerful as a .22 Long Rifle ;-) but all that aside, I find this to be an interesting idea. Certainly a bit more immediately usable than the RIA .22TCM, and I for one am always intrigued by what can be done with the 1911 platform.

Did any of you SHOT attendees see this? Apparently it was available for firing during the media introduction range day.
