The P22 CA configuration is specifically marked "P22 CA" and is listed as compliant for California. Its compact profile measures approximately 6.5 x 4.5 x 1.1 in and weighs about 16 oz unloaded, with a 10+1 capacity in .22 LR. The polymer frame in Tungsten Gray pairs with a black slide for a clean, two-tone finish.
The action is blowback-operated with DA/SA control and an external hammer. Safety features include a slide-mounted manual safety, internal drop safety, and a magazine disconnect. A captured recoil spring supports smooth cycling with standard .22 LR loads.
Controls and ergonomics are set up for easy handling: molded frame texturing with finger grooves, interchangeable backstrap (spare included), and both front and rear slide serrations. An integral multi-slot accessory rail is molded into the frame for mounting compatible accessories.
Sight setup consists of a front blade with a white dot (interchangeable heights) and a rear square notch adjustable for windage, allowing fine-tuning to ammunition choice. A loaded chamber viewport provides a quick visual status check.
