The Ruger SR22 or Ruger SR22P is a pistol chambered for the rimfire .22 Long Rifle cartridge. It does not share design and ergonomic commonalities with the centerfire SR9(c), SR40(c) and SR45 pistols. Mechanically the SR22 significantly deviates from the other Ruger SR-Series pistols. The action of the SR22 is of the straight blowback type. Further the SR22 features a double-action/single-action trigger system with a rounded spur external hammer and has a visual inspection port in the form of a hole in the top of the slide and the back of the barrel that functions as a loaded chamber indicator.[1] The SR22 started to ship in January 2012 and is shipped with two 10-round magazines and replaceable grips for small or large hands.[2]
