My wife's P22 has also been flawless for 1000 rounds.

Zero failures of any kind and accurate after adjusting the rear sights and replacing the front sight. The laser was also adjustable and I have also sighted in the laser.

Gary, thanks for the info and I'm sorry to hear that you had problems with the P22. The P22 we have has been more reliable right out of the box than some of my other guns including at least one brand name and higher priced 1911 though I will mention that the 1911 in question has now been flawless after the 2nd trip back to the factory.

Personally I like the P22, it's a good plinker and the 22 ammo is dirt cheap so I can afford to shoot all day. My wife is tiny so she doesn't feel comfortable with anything bigger in a gun though I'm keeping my eyes open for something with a more potent caliber that she likes. I'm not overly concerned right now as we live in a decent area, she has access to all my guns except whichever one I'm carrying at the moment and she has fired them all except the 12 gauge but she has a 20 gauge of her own. She is also rarely more than several feet from me unless we're working. The P22 is a great learning gun and will suffice untill we eventually find something she'll like as well.

Thanks for all the input from everone.
