New Sig P322.. sigs new .22lr

[Podmonkey]

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.

Well, that's my point too. I have heard the Glock 22 sucks, the SR22 sucks, Walther P22 sucks. A lot of those duty looking .22s suck. If tge P322 turns out to not suck then it's kind of a thing at that point.

The Walther 22, beretta 22, and 1st model of M&P 22 were all made by umarex. The 2nd run of M&P 22 compact is made in house by smith and Wesson.

My thought is it looks like a cross between the wildly popular 320 series and the even more popular 365 series so if even a fraction of those guys buy one it’s worth it to them.

You all forgot the ruger LCPII .22!! J/K

Indeed. It is a handsome pistol. Very business like appearance.

I've been trying to learn more about .22 pistols. With the cost of ammo I want to shoot more but can't really afford to as much as I want.

.22 is still relatively affordable and attainable I would rather practice regularly with a .22 than just dry firing. So I'm in the market for a .22 next. And if nothing else .22 is still really fun.


This looks really interesting. Sadly it doesn't seem available here in the peoples republic of NY



I had good luck with a rental glock44 before so I haven't totally written it off. And apparently the Taurus tx22 is highly thought of.

If this sig p322 is available here I think it would be worth considering. It has a lot of nice features

This just came on my radar. Looks good, but they've been selling in the $600 price range. I'll wait a bit.

I made some P80 22 pistols and some 1911 22 pistols with the conversion kits available for those models. The P80 stock triggers are horrible. They are best replaced by an aftermarket one, I use the Timney trigger.

I also have factory 22 pistols from Kimber and Ruger and one 22 magnum pistol from rock island. All run great, but I think I am done buying 22 Pistols for a while, I think 8 is probably enough for now.

Get a Ruger SR22 in your hands and that Taurus will seem like the lower quality unit that it is. Taurus isn’t really known for their great quality or quality control. For a few more $ you can get a hammer fired pistol from Ruger. Feed it ammo in the 1200-1400fps range and life is good. As with all things 22, though, clean it often.

Sure about that? Taurus seems to have turned itself around. The gx4 and tx22 are getting very high reviews across the board. My choice for a 22 right now is between the Taurus and the sig. I don't have any brand loyalty.

I'm not doubting the s22, but I want to just stick with striker fired guns.

I've tried to do a fair amount of research and the Taurus tx22 seems to be universally praised as a great option. I haven't seen one in person or held one yet but that's what the internet tells me at least and we all know the internet is never wrong.


I shot the g44 and liked it.

The dig p322 seems like a great choice with great design features

The Taurus tx22 has gotten great reviews as well


(There are some others out there that I really want to like as examples the Walther ppq22 but I'm not going to buy a temperamental finicky umarex pile of garbage)

 

[Beerman]

I’d buy a P322 right now if it was available in NYS*.

* NYS = Not Your Stuff since they’ll take everything we own, eventually.

I’m as sure as I need to be. As long as we’re all out shooting, buying new stuff, ammo, etc, I’m happy. Be safe out there, have fun, pick up your brass and leave shooting ranges cleaner than you found them. Heh.
