just pickedgot this fir some work I did for a guy don't know much about Walthers but it'd came with three different length barrels what can you guys tell me about this little handgun
 
It's a nice compact, reliable little handgun, if you run good ammo, you won't have any issues... maybe consider putting a can on one of them extra barrels you got there.
 
I really like mine, especially suppressed! Are you sure they are 3 different lengths... I have the 3.2" and 5" but haven't heard of any others. Let me know, I learn something new everyday.

Anyways, I had one of these for awhile but traded it for a Sig Mosquito. Absolutely the worst decision, EVER! It didn't matter what ammo, what spring it would never fire more than 2 rounds with out a malfunction. So I traded back to the P22. They are a little on the small side for my hand but have never had any problems with mine.

I've got both as well, Sig and Walther, I don't have as many issues as some with the Sig if I use good ammo, I like the size of the Sig better, but over all performance the P22 has my vote.
 
My P22 jammed a lot when I first got it. The manual says CCI Mini-Mags only, but I am cheap and ran Federal bulk through it. After about 500 rounds it slicked up and will shoot about anything well now. I love the light weight and ambidextrous control on this gun. It is on my hip when I walk the woods and trails.
 
Like mine plenty and want a can on it. I'm cheap and run cheap ammo and have had one failure to feed, not bad. If I needed it to be reliable, like life depended on it, i'd load mini mags.
 
I've been very happy with my P22. I run CCI stingers through mine. Never had any problems. Its size makes it pretty comfortable to carry when out calling.
 
I bought one for my wife and I really don't care for it, but it is the pink carbon fiber so she won't get let it go. The first ammo through it was Federal bulk and it wouldn't eject a single round out of about 100 rounds that we put through it the first time out. Next time out I took Remington GB bulk, CCI Blazer bulk, Thunderbolts and Winchester bulk and never had a failure of any kind after 500rds so I tried the Federals again and the first shout wouldn't eject. It does seem to be pretty accurate out to about 25-30yds but my main issue is that it doesn't really fit my hand that well.

My thoughts exactly, OR you could tune the ejector a bit to re-direct the case. Just sayin.....
