The Walther P5 .22 LR is a distinctive rimfire variant of Walther’s well-known service pistol design. Faithful to the P5 profile, it features classic factory styling with a steel slide, alloy frame, and black checkered grips.
The Walther P5 in .22 LR offers a distinctive take on one of Walther’s most recognizable pistol designs. Built around the familiar P5 profile, this rimfire variant pairs the model’s service-pistol styling with the lighter, practical character of .22 LR.
Originally developed as a successor to the post-war P38 line, the P5 introduced a more modern set of mechanical and ergonomic features. In this configuration, the design remains faithful to the platform’s established silhouette while presenting it in a rimfire chambering that gives the pistol its own appeal within the broader P5 family.
This example is described in a classic factory configuration, with matte slide flats, polished transitional surfaces, a steel slide, and an alloy frame with a deep, uniform finish. Details such as the serrated slide treatment, frame-mounted decocking system, sculpted trigger guard, and black checkered grip panels reflect the visual language collectors associate with the Walther P5.
With its angular slide profile, exposed barrel geometry, and balanced proportions, the Walther P5 .22 LR retains the technical, purposeful character of the original design while standing apart as an unusual variation of the model.
