What’s Included
- Original case
- Three 8-round single-stack magazines with finger-rest baseplates
The PT-22 uses a simple blowback system with double-action-only operation and second-strike capability, giving the shooter consistent trigger pulls. The frame-mounted manual safety and spurless concealed hammer support snag-free carry and straightforward handling.
Construction is centered on an aluminum alloy frame with a matte blue/black finish. The slide has rear-only serrations and a serrated top rib to cut glare. Smooth wood grip panels with Taurus medallion inlays complete the classic alloy-frame configuration (not PT-22 Poly).
Dimensions are truly micro: about 5.25 in long, 4.3 in high, and 1.3 in wide, with an unloaded weight of approximately 11.1 oz. The 2.75 in tip-up barrel simplifies loading and chamber checks without racking the slide.
Fixed sights include an integral front ramp and a rear notch. Capacity is 8+1 rounds of .22 LR, and the pistol is marked TAURUS INT. MFG., INC., MIAMI, USA.
