22 LR Pistol Recommendations

[JRS3]

I like my Ruger for all purpose needs and it’s very accurate but am looking for a more compact, suppressor ready gun as well.

I have had a P22 for years and like the size but accuracy is not great. I’m considering a SR22 or a Glock 44.

Taking apart a MKIII to clean is a PIA compared to a MKIV

Taking apart a MKIII to clean is a PIA compared to a MKIV

Definitely! Mk IV is a huge improvement in that regard.

I really like Buckmarks.
I would avoid Rugers except the 22/45 due to grip angle.

I have a buckmark, put a threaded barrel on it so I can shoot it suppressed, it’s nice but I would rather take a ruger mark IV all day! I also have a walther pk22 which is fun but a heavy little guy for how small it is. Makes you feel like James Bond when you are snuffing a grouse

I ended up going with an FN 502 and Dead Air RXD22Ti. Combo weighs in at 30.8 oz with a loaded 10 round magazine. I brought the suppressor home today and am very pleased so far. It's quiet with standard velocity rounds and super quiet with subsonics. I'll be adding a light and (maybe) a red dot.

Another vote for the fn502. I run 1 with a sparrow, red dot, and light, works great

I LOVE my P322, have had it for two years, put a holosun, TLR-7, and a silencerco sparrow on it.it has become by FAR my most used firearm.

Adding a red dot and light definitely get you tacticool points lol.

The red dot for sure adds to the fun of shooting this pistol.

I agree with the recommendation for the S&W victory 22. Super accurate and a ton of fun to shoot, especially suppressed.

and the Cole-Tac chest rig makes packing most suppressed 22's a cinch...

Thanks for the tip. I just ordered a Cole-Tac chest holster.

Has anyone mentioned the Ruger MkIV yet?

I have a Walther PPQ 22 that I like. full size feel, 12rd mags, good trigger, ambi slide release, swappable mag release, comes with a thread adapter though I dont have a suppressor so IDK if the sights see over one.

its been very reliable so far.
