    Default Picked up my first gun

    Bought my first gun this morning. Walther P22 with factory laser sight and almost 500 rounds. Original owner said she put less than 300 rounds through it.

    .22lr is a great caliber to learn on. With some good quality training and plenty of trigger time, you'll be hooked. Congrats on the purchase!

    That's a fine first gun. How much experience do you have with firearms?

    Keep it clean and use the high velocity ammo in it to reduce jamming/malfunctions. I had a friend who owned one of those, and because he didn't clean it/shot the cheapest .22lr he could find, it shot like crap.

    Good choice though, a fun little gun!

    Beware... it all started with a SIG Mosquito for me. That was over 50 guns ago. Start making room now. Go... do it. ha!
