Anybody know where the Walther P22s are?

I just GOTTA get one o' them things. Looks like a lot of folks feel the same way though, they're tough to find.

Beretta U22's

Nobade:  I take it you are talking about the Neos U22 by Beretta??  I did stumble on 2 of them in my local shop.  They were really nice and had a fairly good trigger on them.  I should have put one on lawaway but didn't.  Probably will live to regret that move.  Most dealers I have talked to said they are really backordered and it is just hit and miss to find one.  I even check through my FFL dealer through our club and they can't get one either.  If you live near Valparaiso, Indiana you can probably pick one up at Blythe's Sporting Goods who is the dealer where I saw the two of them.  He said he had these two and had three previously but sold them.  Good luck :-D

No, not the Neo. The Walther P22 - it looks like a shrunk version of the P99, the one S&W and Walther have been working on together. Quite a bit smaller than the Neo, more of a pocket pistol. Ought to be a good plinker for carrying in my pocket on backcountry motorcycle trips.
