Frequently Asked Questions
Walther P22 Military for sale
Is a Walther P22 a good gun?
Whether a P22 suits you depends on your needs. It's a lightweight, affordable .22 LR pistol popular for plinking and range practice. It runs reliably with quality ammunition. Priced around $279, it offers good value, though the Ruger SR22 is a common alternative worth considering.
What are common problems with Walther P22?
Walther P22 owners commonly report failure to eject, feed ramp jams, and the slide not fully returning to battery. These issues often stem from dirty internals or cheap ammunition. Regular cleaning, proper lubrication, and using quality .22 LR rounds resolve most problems.
What ammo is best for the Walther P22?
High-velocity .22 LR ammunition cycles most reliably in the P22. CCI Mini-Mags and Federal Champion are popular choices. Winchester Wildcat and Aguila high-velocity rounds also perform well. Avoid bulk discount ammo, which commonly causes feeding and ejection issues. Regular cleaning improves reliability regardless of ammunition choice.
What is the difference between the P22 and the p22q?
The P22Q updates the original P22 with different grip stippling, altered slide serrations, and a revised magazine nose pattern. Critically, the P22Q also removes the lock found on the original P22. Internally, both are otherwise identical. Pricing falls around $279, so choose based on grip texture, appearance, and lock preference.
Which is better, Ruger SR22 or Walther P22?
Both shoot .22 LR with 10-round capacity in compact frames. The Ruger SR22 generally wins on fit and finish—its anodized aluminum slide outlasts the Walther's ZAMAK zinc alloy. Ruger magazines also load easier. Choose the Ruger for durability; either works fine for plinking and range use.
