Spelled out in full, P22Q means Walther P22 Quick Defense. The original is a refinement of one of the most successful rimfire pistols in the world – the Walther P22.

With its slim design, outstanding reliability and intuitive operation, the 9 mm P.A.K. P22Q is highly popular among users of compact and light blank-firing guns. It is also ideal for concealed carry and self-defense. With its ambidextrous functional elements like the paddle magazine release and intuitive safety lever, it’s ready for quick use in stress situations.

The Q model has a number of features besides those in the classic P22: a completely redesigned frame with a time-tested Hi-Grip finish and interchangeable backstraps in two sizes (S/L, included). In addition, the slide serrations have been enlarged for better handling. This model is also conspicuous for its elegant nickel finish. The Picatinny rail permits mounting of standard accessories.
