Walther P22 Suppressor

[SteveXD]

I took my first step at getting a Suppressor well sortof . I picked up a Walther P22 this morning. Has anyone had any experience with this gun and a suppressor. Anyone recomend a good one?

Possibilitys are endless, Alot of manufactures now make 22 cans. Some are cheap, and you pay for the frugalness, and some are 400 bucks. One of the new kids on the block is the Yankee hill Machine MITE. It retails at 250 with a quoted 40 db reduction. There are other 22 cans from breakopens to fixed cans made by AAC, TAC's ,SWR,GEMTECH to name a few. I will send you a PM

I have a TAC 65 and I would recommend it to anyone. Lightweight, well made. Not sure how much they cost now, but should be in the $200's.

Here's a vid of my TAC65 with subsonic and supersonic ammo. With subsonic, you can hear the bullet whistle downrange and hit the backstop. With supersonic, the sonic crack is very noticeable. Out of your P22, everything will be subsonic - even high velocity rounds.

Also have a TAC65. It's definately inexpensive, and works quite well. It also comes apart for cleaning which can be a very very good thing since its a .22

Many places sell adapters for it as well. TAC has them on their website and installing them is very simple. It's a great little combo.

I just put a few hundred rounds through my P22 yesterday. It is a nice shooting little gun! I'm glad I got it...

No can here, but those pictures are really peeking my interest!

I just spoke with forceinPa and he gave me a great price on an AAC pilot.

Sorry to hijack, but is the P22 the best choice for a suppressed 22LR platform?

I had no idea cans for them were that cheap. I thought they were $600 - $800 dollars. If inder $300 is possible, I may have to revisit the idea of a suppressor.

The dealer prices on several 22 Lr can are much cheaper than the tax stamp and you can find lots of them priced right around the cost of $200 NFA tax stamp price.

I also have one of these for the same reasons.

I think it is a good match because of the threaded barrel end. You can simply take the barrel nut off the end and attach a suppressor to it. There are package deals on gunbroker.com, for around $550, but I am not sure how good they are.

The dealer price of the TAC65 was much less than the cost of the stamp. It was$110 at the time, but that was the price for buying 10 or more.
