Looking at getting a Walther P22 for packing under the seat in my car, I travel quite a bit.

Any comments?

I would prefer a high capacity 9mm or .40 cal. or a Glock 10mm or .45. Size is not a big factor for carrying in your car.

I live in a rural area and when I just walk around the woods or my yard I almost always put a little Unique model L in my pocket. It is very reliable and while not powerful, is powerful enough.

If I wanted to use it sort of like a truck gun, it would be a .45 Colt or a .44 mag. A .357 would also do just fine.

Still your .22 would be just fine.

I used to carry a CZ-52 under the seat. I am not sure why but I recently replaced it with a Browning Hi-Power with a 20 round MecGar mag and a 30 round spare.

The Bersa Thunder 32 or Ultra compact Thunder 9 is a better alternative. If you get the Thunder 9 UC put night sights on it.

I think that is a good choice.

I don’t have a Walter but I have a Ruger SR-22 that I shoot the heck out of.

You can keep it on target and pull as fast as you can.

Pretty accurate at close ranges.
