got a P22 off a forum member...

shot a whole brick of Federal, and the few misc ammo types in the picture...

had 2 cases where top round didnt get stripped and fed...and then 1 stovepipe...when a round didnt eject very well and it just prevented gun from going back into battery..

aside from that its FANTASTIC!!

accurate, light recoil, easy to rapid fire and keep on target, nice controls...

I WANT ANOTHER!!!


Before the test




After!!!

Yeah.....nothing like a 500 round brick of .22LR for $11.
By the way, I've issues with Remington, so stick with the Federal bricks.

P22s are fun but I can't shoot them worth a damn. I have better luck with my 22/45. The ergonomics and fun factor wins with the P22 though.

Nice.  I shoot a lot of that bulk Federal .22 ammo.

I love my P22...  however I like it a whole lot more after adding this...

I'll sell you mine.  You can fix the safety that falls down constantly.

Nice, your lucky it likes cheap ammo.  Both of mine don't shoot very well with bulk ammo.  They like the hot CCI stuff the best.  The Velocitors work very well for me, but they cost like $5 per 50.

well today after 700+ rnds through it from last time, plus shooting Federal Bulk pack it didnt always reset the hammer and strip the top round from the mag.  Had quite a few Fail to Feeds.

Still, plenty good enough performance with bulk ammo for a range gun.  If I wanted it for serious use, ill stick with CCI Stingers.

I get about 60%-70% reliability with Federal bulk, about 80%-85% with Remington golden bullet and about 99%-99.5 with CCI Stingers and such.  P22's are great little guns even though they are a little ammo picky.

Cool thing I discovered: adding a suppressor increases reliability.  Mine doesn't like cheap federal ammo.  The can increases the back pressure enough that they cycle 100%.

The only time I ever shoot it unsuppressed is to show people how well the suppressor works...

Cool, that's good to know.  Thanks!
