Have you had a chance to shoot it yet? I'm thinking about getting one for my daughter to teach her how to shoot. Let us know how it is.

I love the P22

they are pretty cool looking guns

I want that one.........mine is all black, but that would match my FDE .45 XD

tomfoolery · 07-09-2008, 05:31 AM

Its actually OD green....the flash gave it more of a dark earth look. I wouldnt mind one in all black but i also really like the color of this one.

I shot one round out of it at the house, just to make sure it operated fine. I plan on taking it out this weekend and giving it a few hundred rounds.

Is everyone ready to get jealous??? ATF Form 4 is filled out and getting signed by my local police chief now, once thats done youl never hear me

The only thing I don't care for is the mag release.

tomfoolery · 07-09-2008, 06:22 AM

I thought that to...its actually not to hard to release, even fast. I figured its a .22, i wont be using it for speedy mag changes so it wasnt a huge hang up.

It is different though for sure

I have one too. It's good to pass time at the range. If you're at a range that allows rapid fire, you can go through a box of ammo really quick. Federal bulk pack from Walmart works with mine but I get maybe 3-4 FTEs per hundred. I went through a couple of boxes of CCI Mini mags and got one FTE.

Did you find the trigger pull really long? Compared to my XDs, it is long.
