The PT-22 uses a tip-up barrel, allowing the chamber to be loaded and unloaded without racking the slide. This feature also simplifies checking the chamber and clearing the pistol.
Construction is all-metal where it matters, with a steel slide and barrel paired to an aluminum-alloy frame. The pistol wears a two-tone finish and gloss-finished wood grip panels with a smooth profile. Overall length is 5.25 inches, sized for micro carry while maintaining solid handling characteristics.
Operation is double-action-only with an external hammer and a blowback system. Controls include a manual safety and a magazine disconnect. Fixed sights consist of an integral front blade on the barrel and a fixed rear notch, and the slide features rear serrations for grasping.
This example is U.S.-made and marked "MADE IN USA MIAMI, FL." Capacity is 8+1 with the included single-stack magazine, which uses a finger-rest baseplate for added purchase on a small frame.
