improvements to reliability and performance. It will be forever more mini-mags for me in 22LR - I will never buy another type of round for any 22LR weapons I have.

  • Walther P22 A scaled down version of the P99, the Walther P22 is a double action / single action semi auto pistol that features a classic blowback design.
  • I had to shoot quick as it was raining so no idea on accuracy. I noticed that the slide action was a lot more violent which is what was needed. Wow - all five of the problems disappeared with both types of CCI rounds.

    I'll let you know if an unmodified recent model of the walther P22 works better with these ammo varieties. I'm hoping to head to the range later today (weather permitting). Ok - I bought some CCI mini-mag and some CCI Velocitor. Love the gun - hate the issues - it is accurate when it works I don't mind buying a special kind of ammo for this thing as 22LR isn't very expensive anyways. I have seen some posts saying that CCI mini-mags and CCI Velocities or something like that are good rounds for these. Rock the slide and it feeds the second time.ģ) Failure to fire sometimes - Firing pin strikes the round and nothing.Ĥ) Failure to extract - stovepipes, locking the slide open sometimes. I have the following problems:ġ) Won't lock back after empty mag sometimesĢ) Have failure to feed issues sometimes - like it just won't feed at all. I don't really want to take a dremel to it My wife doesn't want me to either - it is her pistol. I currently have 1000 rounds of Winchester Super X high velocity 40grain with the copper coating, and some Remington Thunderbolt. Shall I use CCI Mini Mags to have mine work fine? I'm not saying his suggestion is wrong, just that it didn't work for me. With CCI stingers, mine ejects to the right and slightly rearward, like you want. His way didn't work for me so I went with the intuitive way you would think that the ejector should face. modify the face so that it slants from 10:00 to 4:00 if looking at it from the top of the gun, which is opposite what he suggests in the picture. But I found that I had to modify it just the opposite that he has suggested in his picture i.e. ( 1st pic, about 6 post down by member "1917-1911M").ĥ) Modify ejector. (3rd picture down)Ĥ) Fix safety from engaging while shooting. Link:ģ) Stretch extractor spring to give it more tension. Note: Member "1917-1911M" is awesome with his expertise.ġ) Smooth out hammer: (Link below, start with 5th picture down).Ģ) Smooth where the feed ramp meets the barrel. CCI Mini-Mags and especially CCI Stinger or Quik-Shok work the best. Works much better with High Velocity ammo. I can now shoot almost any kind of 22 LR with no problems. I think with a newer version of the gun (AG on the barrel and mags with letter "A") this will work. I did 5 things to make my p22 100% reliable. On page 8 of this thread I posted 5 steps that helped me make it work better.

    Overall I love the gun: Light, can suppress it, accurate, fun, inexpensive. Above "hmaverick" mentioned not using "stingers", probably good advice in general but they really work well in this gun. Now have 6850 through it with 2305 through the suppressor. Here is what happened to mine after 4727 rounds, with a lot of CCI Stinger use.
