Walther P22 catastrophic failure!

Any idea which baffles ur going with aluminum, steel or titanium???

I believe I will stick with aluminum. I'm going to ask them to advise what the first baffle looks like when they take it down. if there is much erosion then ill opt for a steel or Ti first baffle on the rebuild.

Yeah it like the idea of a steel or ti blast baffle considering that one gets the dirtiest.

You are correct, they haven't said anything about replacing it or charging me. That said, my past experiences with S&W have been extremely positive and I am sincerely hoping that this one follows suit.

No worries I had over30k thru mine when the trigger link gave up and slide wobbled. Sent it back( they provided shipping box and prepaid shipping label) was returned in 7days. New slide,link and test fire with target and no charge.

they even put new sights on mine.

Glad to hear that they did so awesome with the customer service. I will be sure to put one on the list of plinkers to possible get when i get rich.

Glad to hear you got it back! Now, we need to set up a time to meet up and do some dueling P22's suppressed!

 

[VUPDblue]

Yes let's do that!

That is hella cool that they replaced the slide for free. 50K is a lifetime worth of ammo for most pieces. Glad you weren't hurt. I have one I shoot with a huntertown can. Glad you didn't get a baffle strike too!!!

I think ill put a few hundred more downrange this week....just to make sure it still works.....

I was worried about my P22, it's a older model with lots of rounds.
But i'm not so worried about it now, if they fixed it for nothing.

I did get a SR22 just because I like the feel better, and the P22 went to the wife as her 22 pistol! Win Win the way I see it!
