Frequently Asked Questions
Taurus 22 Poly for sale
Is the Taurus PT22 discontinued?
Yes, Taurus discontinued the PT22. Both the metal-frame and PT22 Poly variants were phased out as Taurus shifted to the 22TUC platform. Used models remain available through secondary markets, with six variants listed from thirteen retailers, typically around $232.
Is Taurus PT22 a good gun?
Opinions split sharply. Some owners report reliability issues requiring ammo experimentation, while others praise its handling and value. The newer TX-22 is widely considered a better option for modest extra cost. Available used around $150–$230, but reliability concerns make it a risky carry choice.
When was the Taurus PT22 made?
The Taurus PT22 was produced for several decades. A polymer-frame variant, the PT22 Poly, was introduced around 2010–2011. The model has since been discontinued but remains available on the secondary market.
What is the effective range of a Taurus PT22?
The PT22 is most effective at 7 to 15 yards. As a small .22 LR pocket pistol, it can hit targets at 25 yards with careful aim, but accuracy degrades beyond that. It is designed for close-range defensive use, not extended shooting.
What ammo is best for Taurus PT22?
CCI Mini-Mags (solid or hollow point) are the most reliable choice for PT22 owners. CCI Velocitors and Federal bulk pack also run well in many PT22s. Magazine and feed-ramp issues are common, so test any ammo before relying on it for carry.
What holsters are compatible with the Taurus PT22?
Multiple holster styles fit the PT22, including IWB, OWB, pocket, and shoulder options. Many are universal designs for compact .22 pistols, while precision-molded versions exist specifically for the PT22. Check retailer listings for PT22-specific fits to ensure proper retention and draw.
