I don’t get excited about .22 pistols, but this seems nice. Lots of features.

I hope it runs better than my Sig Mosquito...

Wait a minute, it’s everything that Glock said would make a less reliable semi 22 lr pistol ! Hmmmm

So who actually makes it for sig? Is it GSG like the last two or is it now umarex?

If it’s uramex I don’t want it. They suck as a company.

Agree. My GSG 1911 has been pretty decent. Idk why all these gun companies don’t want to develop their own 22’s and instead just farm it out and then slap their names on it. at least Glock did design, develop and build their own 22.

I had one of the uramex BB guns for a few months and it broke in like 2-3 months. I wrote them and said it’s a common thing will they do something about it. They said they would replace it, but I didn’t have something paperwork wise that they wanted so they refused. They handled it so poorly I’ll never shop with them again. It was a bad design and nearly every review was what happened to mine in the same timeframe and was an impulse buy at a local store because it was on sale. I was honest and told them I got a good deal at like half price of they were going to do a refund too.

At 1.08 he says it is a ground up design by SIG made by SIG

The video claims it is a sig. Sig design, sig manufactured.

On looks I'd buy it but I'm sorta keeping my eyes open for the 22 Taurus target pistol.

Plinkster says this ain't no Mosquito
I'm guessing my wife will want one of these to add to the herd.
It'll be cheaper than all the other guns she doesn't know she wants yet. (Video says Sig is pricing this as a 400 dollar handgun)
I must really love her to keep showering her with guns and ammo the way prices have been.

I’ve heard sig make that claim before with the Sig mosquito in 22LR and Sig 1911 in 22LR. Both turned out to be made by GSG. I bought the GSG 1911 in 22LR and saved myself $$$ vs buying the same gun with the Sig name. If Sig actually designed and produces this all in house them I will put it on the list of guns I want. Until then I will take a wait and see approach

SIG SAUER | P322
The new P322 was completely designed and built by SIG SAUER in New Hampshire and is loaded with premium features, including an optic-ready removable rear sight plate so you can easily add a ROMEOZero red dot optic without the use of adapter plates. The P322 also comes with a threaded barrel...

I heard "designed" but not "made".
Whatever the case may be, if the P322 is produced to airgun manufacturing standards out of pot metal I've no interest. If it is a proper gun made of proper alloy steel I would strongly consider a purchase. I am definitely in the market for a good .22lr pistol.

Sig's customer service confirmed the P322 models are all made by SIG at SIG's New Hampshire facilities but with only threaded barrels it won't be an option for most on this fine forum.

I always found it fascinating that the vast majority of semi auto 22LR’s are made with threaded barrels, yet the vast majority of center fire pistols are made without threaded barrels. I know that it’s with the idea of suppressing a 22 pistol, but since a good portion of states don’t allow suppressors, it seems like a weird way to restrict your sales numbers and thus your profits.

For some reason every 22lr pistol that is made with a threaded barrel has been available for purchase in NY at gun stores, shows and online.
Wow, that makes SIG somewhat unique with many manufacturers farming out production of their .22s.
I'm sure non threaded versions will come along. I'm sure the aftermarket will have offer non threaded barrels as well

There are enough really great .22 pistols out there that run and run and run, with tons of aftermarket support that I don't get the enthusiasm for an unproven pistol from a company that already put out a .22 pistol that was a dud

There are indeed many great options. You have the sensible and modular S&W Victory, the ultra classy Model 41, the stalwart Ruger Mk IV and the sexed up Volquartsen versions thereof, your Buckmarks, ect. All very fine pistols. However there is a substantial market for .22 pistols that look and handle like a modern defensive/duty pistol. Many of the guns in this segment suck so whenever a new one comes out everybody is abuzz wondering "will it be good or will it suck?"There are enough really great .22 pistols out there that run and run and run, with tons of aftermarket support that I don't get the enthusiasm for an unproven pistol from a company that already put out a .22 pistol that was a dud
With SIG this can be a real crap shoot.
SIGs philosophy with new firearms seems to be- fall out of the tree and hit every branch on the way down......... and get back up bloody and bruised with a good gun. Eventually.

That was my point exactly.
M&P 22, Ruger SR 22, Glock 44, Walter P22, Beretta M9 22, etc.... Plus conversion kits for center fire pistols. It’s not like there is a hole in the market that needs to be filled.
Sig is late to the party and made a poor showing last time. That’s why I don’t get the enthusiasm.
It reminds me of when Hudson came out with their piece of crap. It was billed as the next greatest thing since the 1911, with a 1911-like trigger. Then people started getting a chance to shoot it, and made excuses for it being a POS. Then after the company folded, they would finally admit that it was a POS with a crappy trigger that wouldn’t run.
I guess the marketing guys are worth what they’re getting paid.
