Walther P22
-
The P22 can be purchased with a 3.4-inch bare barrel, or with a 5-inch barrel which includes a barrel mounted weight compensator matching the contour of the slide (pictured to the right)
- The P22 was originally designed such that the two altered length butt assemblies could be easily interchanged, and "combo" packages including both barrels were offered for sale.
Due to California's ban on Assault weapons, the Walther P22 was not achievable for sale in that state for some time. The gun was initially approved for sale only to be delisted after the California Department of Justice realized the adequate had a in a pickle that was threaded (threaded barrels on semi-automatic pistols in California are a Walther P22 Handgun characteristic which makes them banned under the state's limitation on so-called assault weapons).
