Walther P22 22LR Rimfire Pistol — Angel Blue Frame (Threaded) — 10 Rounds

Overview — stylish, accurate .22 LR that feels like a centerfire

The Walther P22 22LR with Angel Blue frame blends iconic Walther ergonomics and modern tactical styling into a compact, lightweight rimfire pistol that’s equally at home on the range, at the campsite, or as a standout in your collection. Built from the same Performance Design concepts as Walther’s centerfire handguns, the P22 delivers an authentic control layout, ambidextrous usability, and a threaded barrel for accessory flexibility. If you’re searching to buy a high-quality .22 LR pistol for training, plinking, or varmint control, the Angel Blue P22 offers an attractive colorway with the reliability shooters expect from Walther.

Why shooters choose the Walther P22 Angel Blue

• True-to-PPQ ergonomics: Grip angle, control placement, and trigger feel mirror Walther’s centerfire designs so your practice transfers directly to full-caliber handguns.
• Threaded barrel: Factory-threaded barrel accepts a thread protector or a moderator (where legal), making it a great option for quieter range sessions or suppressed training.
• Accessory ready: Integral Picatinny rail accommodates lights or lasers for practical drills and low-light work.
• Ambidextrous and safe: Loaded chamber indicator, external slide stop that locks back on empty, manual safety, magazine disconnect, and firing pin block provide multiple layers of safety.
• Easy to personalize: Interchangeable backstraps and included extra sights let you tailor fit and sighting to your preferred setup.
• Range-ready package: Includes two magazines, hard case, cable lock, and owner’s manual — everything you need to start shooting right away.

Designed for training, recreation, and everyday enjoyment

The Walther P22 Angel Blue is an excellent choice if your buyer intent is to purchase a trainer that mimics centerfire handling or to buy a stylish rimfire pistol for the range. With a 10-round capacity, light recoil, and predictable DA/SA trigger characteristics (11 lb DA / 4 lb SA), this model is ideal for new shooters learning fundamentals as well as experienced shooters who want affordable, high-volume practice without losing the feel of a duty pistol.

Handling & performance on the range

On the range the P22 rewards measured technique: the 3.42″ threaded barrel and clean sight radius make it straightforward to work on sight alignment and trigger control. The low-profile three-dot polymer sights are snag-free for carry-style drills and the rear is windage adjustable so you can zero for your preferred .22 LR load. The Picatinny rail gives you the option to test practical gear like compact lights or lasers to expand tactical training scenarios. Balance, grip ergonomics, and the interchangeable backstrap system keep the pistol comfortable in long practice sessions and make it easier to achieve repeatable shots and faster follow-ups.

Care, maintenance & tips

Rimfire ammunition produces more fouling than centerfire rounds — clean the bore and breech face more frequently to maintain reliability and accuracy. Use a dedicated rimfire cleaning kit and remove carbon/lead deposits after heavy sessions. Check magazines and springs periodically and rotate spares to avoid spring fatigue. If you plan to run a moderator on the threaded barrel, verify local laws and use the correct thread protector when not using a device.
