New Blue/Nickel P-22 - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Well, my previous Black 2002 P-22 was stolen out of my friends car,
Serial # L010441

I was in the process of suppressing it and the P-22 adapter was already bought.
I have an SP-22 which blows so I really wanted another P-22.

The mil price is hard to beat but if you want a special model you have to call the mil sales guy. I saw this blue one at a gun show and liked it. The other option was a graphite finish or the standard OD green and black. Which most of my guns already are.

Since this was for pure target and training I figured a nice HALO-2 type color would be a good change. The rep at Smith&Wesson said it was a special order by a distributor but a month later he managed to get me one for the mil price.

So here it is, I have yet to shoot it but it should handle just like the other P-22.

Now, if you can actually find some ammo for it.

Nice gun, really digging the color. Does it match your blue MJOLINR armor?

Wally world here always has stockpiles of Redbox federal 500rds and even the 300rd Federal AutoMatch, which is a little overpowered for semi autos, the P-22 really needs stronger 22LR ammo to cycle well.

It can go with the purple covenant 10/22

my free-time goal one day is to mold, shape or carve the HALO rifle to put a 10/22 into. Wish there was an airsoft version to rip off.

That's surprisingly beautiful. I like it! The Ruger, too!

Don't forget the digital round counter too!

Is it me or does that scope on the 10/22 looks like it's way far back on the rifle?

The cheekrest on that stock is pretty far back, its a right hand only weld.
