After the paperweight my Mosquito became do I trust buying a P322?

If not, what else? Walther PPQ M2 .22?

Absolutely. I bought mine in Nov and have about 4k rounds through it. It’s the most fun range gun I own. It’s accurate as I can shoot it and easy to put 400 rounds through it on any day at the range.its cheap to shoot which is an added bonus. Like any .22 it does have about 5-10 misfires in that 400 rounds..22 is a dirty and cheap round.I have better luck with federal, CCI and Fiochi than I do with Aguila.
The Mosquito was not a good gun so I understand your trepidation. I think the P322 is the best .22 on the market. I have seen many people sour on the S&W.22. Not sure about the Glock. I have heard good things about the Taurus TH but have only put a magazine through one. No comparison to the Sig in my opinion. I would highly recommend it but make no mistake about it, it will have some misfires. It’s for plinking though not self defense.

walther ppks .22 the nicest looking imo and fun to shoot I have 4 of them.

100% happy with the Ruger .22's. IMHO, the Rugers can't be beat regarding a .22lr. SR22, 10/22, PC Charger, LCP, Mark IV etc.

I'm also a big Henry lever action fan in both .22lr and .38/.357.

The P322 is a totally new firearm from the ground up, it has no relationship to the Mosquito

I have several thousand rounds through mine and am totally thrilled with it. I feeds and shoots anything.

I find it much less picky reguarding ammunition than my Ruger MMK-IIs and more fun and accurate than my Walther TPH, PP.PPK or PPK/s 22s

The P322 is not even picky if it is dirty. I think part of that is because the gun is hammer fired

It is also not too hard to love the 20 round magazine capacity with the optional 25 round Factory mags

Shop I worked at previously was barred and alarmed, small place. We locked all the handguns in the safe at night but we left the Sccy’s and the Mosquito in the showcase at night. That should give you an idea what we thought of the Mosquito.

And FWIW the shop I presently work at sells a lot of the P322’s and rarely do we see any being traded in or sold back. That is more common with Glock 44’s.

My P322 still misfires or fails to feed roughly 1-2 rounds per mag. I have multiple mags. Gun is clean and lubed. I load the mags per the manual. I have tried multiple types/brands of ammo. I have not shimmed the mainspring.

Not reliable enough for my purposes. Fun when it works though.

For comparison, my Ruger MKIII 22/45 went 10,000 documented rounds, without a detailed cleaning, with one misfire and zero failures to feed or eject. (after I removed the loaded chamber indicator)

So have you taken the mags apart, cleaned and lubed with silicone? Try it on half of your mags and run them sperate and see if that fixes the feed issues. I had two NEW mags that I had not lubed and they had the same issue with FTL, once I sprayed them ran perfectly

I recently bought 3 new mags for mine. I mistakenly purchased the 25 round ones. They are OEM and definitely have more issues than the mags that came with the gun. I don’t like how the extend past the grip. My mistake so I will grin and bear it. I’m going to test your silicone theory. I’m skeptical but would be very happy if that works.

The 2 new mags the had issue before lube were a 20 and 25, my other 3 20 rounders and a 25 all ran perfectly as do all now. Could be other issues but mine been great since I started cleaning and lube mags after each use. Very interested to hear what your results are. I spray them, all parts blow dry with compressed air and assemble

Really enjoy the P322 here but it is definitely finicky about ammo quality and loading mags properly. Would buy again in spite of quirks. Have FN 502 that is even more fun to shoot and more reliable on any and all ammo tried so far. Like that it has metal mags.
