Jrod77 Posted December 24, 2011 Report Posted December 24, 2011 I can see were theres some simalarity between the walther and the m&p but if youve been waiting for a fullsize 22 hand gun this could be what your looking for my wife hasnt let me have much time with it since its family time with christmas and all but hope fully by tuesday ill get to sneek off to the range but at least its not a shrunk version of my real m&ps
Microgunner Posted December 24, 2011 Report Posted December 24, 2011 I'm really interested in this pistol. Keep us in the loop.
StuTalon Posted January 10, 2012 Report Posted January 10, 2012 Just picked this up too - on it's way to my FFL right now. I like the P22(my buddy owns one), but it felt small in my hands so I am eager to try this out. Built by Walther but curious to see if it has any of the issues the P22 seems to exhibit. Seemed like a nice compliment to my S&W 15-22 and at 335 shipped I was all over it.
mr2tuner Posted January 12, 2012 Report Posted January 12, 2012 i just picked up an m&p 22 monday and gotta say it works rather well..never shot a pistol till today so bit of a learning experience..but i fell right into it shooting about 40yds out on a 8"x8" target...shot 300+ rounds and flawless..break downs fairly easy.just different from a rifle
StuTalon Posted January 13, 2012 Report Posted January 13, 2012 Anyone find a source yet for extra mags? can't believe it only came with one and nobody seems to have any.....
Jrod77 Posted January 16, 2012 Author Report Posted January 16, 2012 its gonna be a bit before we can get extra magazines and i have yet to find a nice warm place to got shooting yet damn maine winters
StuTalon Posted January 16, 2012 Report Posted January 16, 2012 Yea was cold here in NH this weekend but we took it out to the pit and put about 250 rounds through it. Initial impressions were excellent - CCI Minimag, CCI Stingers, Federal Bulk all went through with no issues. The added weight, full size frame, and excellent trigger made for much more predictable, accurate, and repeated shots versus the Walther P22. The only drawback so far is the single mag - took longer than we would have liked with the reloading.
StuTalon Posted January 19, 2012 Report Posted January 19, 2012 Pics it is! The last 2 are the S&W sitting next to my new SA XD(m) 9mm 5.25" for comparison. If I can steal my friends Walther P22 for a few minutes this weekend I will post a few comparison pics.
StuTalon Posted February 3, 2012 Report Posted February 3, 2012 So I got a reply from S&W customer support and it will be at least another 8 weeks before we see any spare mags for the pistol stateside from Walther - :-[Other than that they said the screw on barrel extension for a suppressor should show up around the same timeframe.
