Smith & Wesson Model 422 Semi Auto Pistol .22 LR
Innovative Excellence: Smith & Wesson Model 422 Semi Auto Pistol in .22 LR Experience the cutting-edge design of the Smith & Wesson Model 422, a semi-automatic pistol chambered in .22 LR. With Serial #TDA5724 and a unique barrel positioning, this pistol stands as a testament to innovative engineering and functionality. The Model 422's distinctive design features a low-positioned barrel just above the trigger guard, providing a constant width and depth from the trigger guard forward to the muzzle. This design not only gives the pistol a pleasing aesthetic but also contributes to a low bore axis, significantly reducing muzzle jump during firing. One of the notable features is the fixed, non-moving barrel that came threaded from the factory. The "barrel nut" secures the barrel to the frame, making the Model 422 perfect for use with a suppressor. The innovative design allows for the attachment of a suppressor with an aftermarket adapter without sacrificing the use of factory sights. The bolt assembly, forming the top rearward portion of the pistol in an L shape, moves behind and above the axis of the barrel. The recoil spring, contained in the portion above the bolt, also houses the firing pin. This setup contributes to the Model 422's unique and efficient operation. Serial #TDA5724 serves as a distinctive identifier, connecting this pistol to its manufacturing lineage. It adds a personal touch to the firearm, marking it as part of the Smith & Wesson legacy. Introduced with a 12-round detachable box magazine, the Model 422 later shipped with a 10-round magazine in compliance with a 1992 high-capacity magazine ban in California. This showcases the adaptability of the pistol to changing regulations without compromising its performance. Acquire the Smith & Wesson Model 422, and relish in the blend of innovation and excellence. Whether used for precision shooting or appreciated as a collector's item, this pistol invites you to explore the forefront of design in the realm of .22 LR semi-automatic pistols.
