Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The 22A is a hammer-fired, semi-automatic .22 caliber pistol. The enclosed hammer rotates in the frame, hitting the rear of the firing pin in the slide, which then hits the rim of the chambered round. After chambering the first round by pulling back and releasing the slide, each firing ejects the spent cartridge, cocks the hammer, and then strips a new round from the magazine and loads it into the chamber. The hammer is automatically cocked, and pulling the trigger simply releases it. This results in a lower trigger pull force, unlike a double-action pistol where the trigger must first cock the hammer and then release it.
A frame mounted safety switch is present along the left side of the frame in the conventional location to be operated by the user's right thumb. Patridge-type target sights are standard on this gun, with the rear sight adjustable for both windage and elevation. The front sight is integral to the barrel shroud and is not removable or adjustable. An integral feed ramp at the barrel breech helps ensure the reliable loading of rounds into the chamber from the magazine.
Later models incorporate a magazine safety that does not permit the gun to fire unless the magazine is fully seated. This feature helps prevent accidental discharge during careless handling, especially during cleaning. The magazine release is located on the front of the grip, making it easy to locate and also makes it ambidextrous since it is equally well placed for both right and left-handed shooters.
