Any experience w/ P22 5"?

Saw one recently...$300. Have I found my polymer 22? Any suggestions, comments?

Thumbs up

I own a First Edition, it has both barrels. I use the 5" almost all the time. Love the weapon, No big problems and very accurate.

I got mine about a month ago it was $298.00 out the door, I have put 500+ rounds through it and have yet to have a problem of any kind...

The trigger on mine was a little stiff at first but is alot better now, did hear of some people haveing feeding prolbems with the old mags...The new ones have slits on both sides next to the top and they work just fine...

I have fired Win, CCI, and FED in mine and it likes the WIN the best when it comes to group size, I have not tryed any of the cheeper 22s to see how they feed but I bet they will work just fine...

The gun is FUN to shoot and works like its big brothers and is well worth the money...

Just remember to get plenty of ammo it will go fast...

A range buddy just got one, and I put a couple mag fulls through it. It's a very tight little pistol, and seems picky on ammo - it likes CCI Stingers best and tends to jam with others. After reading about these pistols on various sites, I'm thinking he has the older magazines. Also I read that they do need to be broken in. It impressed me as pretty accurate, tho we were plinking, not shooting on paper. The grip is a bit small for my big mitts, but I have similar problems with most compact style pistols.
I liked it, but I'd have to make sure one functioned well before putting good money on it.
