Description
Walther P22 Spring Pistol (Plus 1 Extra Magazine – Black)
The Walther P22 spring pistol is a licensed replica of Walther’s compact P22, in black, and this pack includes an extra magazine. Spring pistols are the simplest type of airsoft pistol: you cock the slide before each shot, so there are no batteries or gas to buy, making it a very low-cost way into target shooting.
The P22 is a small, lightweight pistol that sits comfortably in most hands, and the Walther branding adds a touch of authenticity. It is ideal for practising in the garden with a proper BB trap, and as an introduction to safe airsoft handling.
Build and design
The pistol is all-plastic, which keeps it very light at around 170g, and it measures around 156mm long. It has a manual safety, and a 22mm rail under the barrel for a small torch or laser.
Its compact size makes it easy to hold and aim, and the clean Walther styling gives it a realistic appearance.
How it works
The P22 is operated manually: pull the slide back to cock the spring before each shot, then squeeze the trigger. The magazine holds 20 BBs, and with an extra magazine in the pack you can keep one loaded while you shoot from the other.
Lighter BBs suit low-powered spring pistols best; 0.12g to 0.20g BBs are recommended.
Getting started
Read the manual first so you know how the safety works. Load BBs, cock the pistol as the manual shows and fire a few shots at a safe backstop. If the pistol has an adjustable hop-up, set it a little at a time until the BBs fly level.
Spring pistols are ideal for practising in the garden or at an indoor range with a suitable BB trap. Always wear eye protection, even when target shooting.

Compatibility
The pistol uses 6mm BBs; for best results use 0.12g to 0.20g BBs. Spare magazines should be made for the Walther P22 spring pistol. The 22mm rail takes small, lightweight pistol torches or lasers.
Care and maintenance
Store the pistol uncocked so the spring is not left under tension. Wipe it down after use and keep it dry. Use clean, good quality BBs, as cheap or dirty BBs are the most common cause of jams in spring pistols.
If a BB jams, remove the magazine, point the pistol in a safe direction and clear the barrel with a cleaning rod, never with your finger or anything that could damage the inner barrel.
Who is it for?
The P22 is aimed at beginners, target shooters with a safe backstop or BB trap, and anyone wanting an inexpensive, no-fuss pistol to practise safe handling.
Please note: BBs are not listed as included. Always wear suitable eye protection when using airsoft replicas, even when target shooting.
