The Ruger SR22 or SR22P is a pistol chambered for the rimfire .22 Long Rifle cartridge.
It does not share design and ergonomic commonalities with the striker-fired centerfire Ruger SR-Series pistols. Mechanically the SR22 significantly deviates from the other Ruger SR-Series pistols. In fact, it is more similar to something like a Walther P22 than a Ruger SR series pistol. The SR22 comes only in compact size, although recently a 4.5 inch barrel version was released. The SR22 is mainly targeted at plinking and competition shooting. The action of the SR22 is of the straight blowback type. It features a stainless steel barrel that is fixed to the frame. Furthermore, the SR22 features a double-action/single-action trigger system with a rounded-spur external hammer, and has a visual inspection port in the form of a hole in the top of the slide and the back of the barrel that functions as a loaded chamber indicator. The pistol is very lightweight thanks to its aluminum slide and polymer frame. The pistol also comes with interchangeable rubber grips for different-sized hands. The SR22 started to ship in January 2012 and is shipped with two single stack 10-round magazines and replaceable grips for small or large hands.
The Ruger SR22 is equipped standard with an ambidextrous thumb safety/decocking lever, and magazine release. Two interchangeable handgrips are offered. One in slim- and the other in wide-palmswell format. It is also equipped with a Picatinny rail on the frame below the barrel and in front of the trigger guard.
