Your Opinion: Walther P22

[BigBear]

What is your opinion on the Walther p22 .22lr pistol?

I've heard it's very reliable with the right ammo, wonderful as a suppressor host, very ergonomic for the ladies or folks with smaller hands, and decently accurate out of the box. Plus, it's not as expensive as some others.

Trying to decide on a .22lr "trainer" pistol.

Your thoughts?

Thanks,
Bear

It's everything you said there, bigbear.

I don't own one but a friend does. I do want one.

As for "trainer" pistol . . . I like introducing people to handguns with my 9 shot Taurus 22LR revolver. The training technique it's best at is loading 3 or 4 rounds randomly and watching for flinching. I can usually train a lot of flinch out of them that way. They can easily see the flinching for themselves too.

I own a P22, but the sig Mosquito is pretty cool too. I haven't shot the sig, but have heard great things.

The P22 I had was a great gun. It will do everything you need it to do.

Spyder I heard your p22 was garbage
