Walther P22 (.22LR) Handgun
On
the exterior, the Walther P22 resembles the Walther pistol P99, but it is
actually only 75% of
the Walther P99's size and instead chambers the rimfire .22 LR cartridge. The most
noticeable exterior difference is the Walther P22's slide-mounted, thumb-operated, ambidextrous safety and its external hammer. The Walther
pistol P22 features
a cast polymer grip-frame. The Walther P22's slide and serial numbered frame receiver inserts
are made from cast zinc alloy. The barrel consists of a rifled steel insert
within a steel barrel sleeve. |

The Walther P22 pistol may be fired double action for the first shot
from a hammer-down condition, and operates as a single action on
all successive shots. The hammer can only be decocked by
pulling the trigger, as this particular handgun does not have a
"decocking" lever. The Walther P22 operates on the blowback
method of semi-automatic operation. Under this approach, the
pressure generated by a firing cartridge is contained by a
combination of the inertial weight of the slide assembly and the
force of the recoil spring. There is no "locking" mechanism. The
strength of the recoil spring and the weight of the slide are
such that the rearward force of the firing cartridge will not
open the action until the projectile has left the barrel and the
pressures have dropped to safe levels.
The Walther P22 is
equipped with a magazine disconnect that prevents the trigger
from operating on the sear mechanism until a magazine is
inserted and locked into the weapon. The magazine
disconnect on a Walther P22 works by utilizing a strong spring
to apply downward force against the trigger bar, such force
being sufficient to overcome the action of the relatively weaker
trigger spring which interacts with upward force on the same
bar. When a magazine is not locked into the weapon, the downward
force of the stronger magazine disconnect spring causes the
trigger bar to pass beneath the internal lockwork of the weapon
when the trigger is pressed. Once a magazine is fully inserted,
however, an actuator surface on the front of the magazine pushes
against the magazine safety. This overcomes the magazine
safety's strong spring, and thereby serves to allow the trigger
bar to spring upward under the force of the less powerful
trigger spring. When this occurs, the trigger bar is in a
position where it engages the lockwork when the trigger is
actuated. An added side effect of the interplay between the
strong magazine disconnect spring and the magazine itself is
that the magazine will "spring" out of the grip of the weapon
when released.
