Ran a P22 Target version for many years, thousands of rounds from ultra HV to 60 grain subsonics. Some FTF and those wouldn't fire in another pistol either so its the ammo not the gun. Very accurate. With 60 subsonic it drills as good as any and at pistol ranges there is no problem with bullet stability. The recoil with the 60 grainers is softer but with more push than the sharper slap of the light grain ultra HV rounds.
The slides are made out of Zamak so running them dry isn't advisable nor is just shooting them until the slide doesn't function and blaming the gun. While its a 22 cleaning is still important. I found using De-Oxit NP on the slide kept it operating smoothly and kept the slide velocity nice a fast so extractions were spot on. I never modded the pistol, it just keeps shooting. It s small pistol so if you have ham sized fists something else might work better. I run an extended mag base got insure I get a proper grip. For smaller handed people it should fit just fine and using proper control its reliable and fun to shoot.
Shoot it, clean it rinse and repeat. Limp wristing it does what all 22s do so teach your kid how to properly shoot a 22 pistol. Would I buy another? Yes. Have I? Yes.
