That is indeed a Hogue Monogrip. The porting - I don't know who did it. The ports have rounded ends like a C , not square ends, and look very smooth. The flats just below the front sight do show some...

Nice haul, You will love that P22 after you break it in. BREAK her in right!! Buy the Maxi Mags by CCI for the initial 200-500 rounds of break in. After that feed it what ever you want! -Bill

Cleanup Report Walther P22 : It comes apart quite easily. With the 5" barrel I have to use the allen keys to remove a little 'stabilizer', before taking the slide back and off. Barrel stays attached...

She's brand new to shooting, not really sure how to use her eyes on the sights. Its hard to explain the basics you knew since you were 8 years old. I would start with the fundamentals with her and...
