    Hello All,

    I would like to know if I can lessen the trigger pull. If so, how would I go about doing it?
    Is there another trigger group I could buy, etc.

    Thanks!

    The first "plastic" pistol I ever bought.
    Bought one a couple months ago because:
    With the way the barrel is designed, with the threaded end.
    It was easy for GemTech to make an adapter to 1/2 x 28tpi.
    So, in turn it makes it easy to "screw on" there little Outback model suppressor.
    Since I went through the "Registration" process to acquire one, I thought this would be another "cute" 22 to have available for the suppressor.
    I'm "fairly" happy with it, because I bought it more for a conversation piece than a real shooter.
    For a boy's first 22 pistol, I would NEVER consider it though.
    Just not the quality for the money, that I'd want my son to start with.
    For the money, I'd get a Browning Buck Mark or even a Ruger.
    He'll have a better, more accurate pistol and one that will last him for years.
    I question the durability of the P22 and have heard some stories of problems very early on.
    Not even a consideration, in my estimation.

    I like my Walther P22 and never had the problems that some others have experienced.
    I liked it for the versatility, I was able to mount an inexpensive lazer sight and have both the 3.5 and 5 inch barrels.
    I have not experienced any jambs with it yet, I also own a S&W 22A and model 41 both diffrent guns because of the size are more suited for target practice.
    It's a cute "toy" not as accurate as the Ruger or S&W but a good fun lightweight plinker.
    We have the MKII Rugers at the range for rentals and they are almost indestructable.
    I like the P22 and think you would too.
