@tt 33,
well dear,i have 4,{four} NP22 pistols on my licensess,bought first one 3 years ago,and then the rest 3, fired hundareds of rounds in Lahore Rifle Club and in my villages, i love this gun,it never missed,never jammed,no problems at all.I think it should be enough reason to have 4 pistols of the same make and model.

[Rizshu]

[Memon]

Guys how safe it is to carry the np 22 with live chamber (bullet in chamber) and decocked with lever...is there any chance of bullet going off with accidental push on hammer or some similar situation and secondly how does this feature compare to nz 85 (live chamber carry)?

[139]

and above all whats is going priceof NP 22 nowadays... since Capt Asad's revealation to the forum that our Army is eagerly looking towards this weapon my interest in it has risen considerably..

NP-22 has proved to be the finest pistol of my collection and has not cheated me yet , I am using it since year plus and so far have fired around 500 + rounds only one bullet got misfired which was due to technical fault of the bullet itself. This model is without safety catch however decocking catch is a nice addition to it as of Sig P-226 means ready to take on any time , requires extreme maturity .Regards

[arawan]

I have a np22 too. Its major quality is reliability. But it has one drawback and that is the large size. but overall its excellent.

[Glocker]

AOA Guys! Need your professional advices regarding buying a Norinco NP22.... I do own a Sig P226 Tac Ops and totally in love with it... Don't want to carry it because of its bigger size compared to normal Sig P226 and the HIGH PRICE.... :-) For carry, I want to have the same design, reliability and dependability. Want another Sig P226 which I could use roughly and carry everywhere without worrying about it, but on the other hand don't want to spend huge amount..... The answer is NP22, right? Now the advice that I need from you guys is, if I could trust my life with the reliability, dependability and accuracy of Norinco NP22....??? Looking forward to hear from you soon.

br if u in search of SIG clone over which u can trust,then IMHO ur first option must be Cz999 then Np22 and thirdly Np34,But this is worth mentioning here that in this category Cz999 has no competitor,the best advice about Np22 u can get from Atiq sb as he also owns and fired thusand of rounds in a day,in fact he has done torture test to this gun in Pakistan and has fired more than 7 thousand rounds with his Np22

[atiq]

I bought NP22 about 5+ years ago and at 27500 and chose NP34 for my younger brother at same price and fell in love with it.
I have done a lot of learning with this gun and a LOT means a LOT. 1200 rounds in a day was the max i went and that was with local cz-75, PG and local chinese red round brands. Today i checked my round log book and It seems I have reached almost 14 thousand rounds plus, this I keep to record the practice sessions and the ammo i purchase.. the budget constraints. Believe me it is a one heck of a gun. It comes with couple of spare parts in the box, such as a locking lug spring.. the first part to break on my gun. It is a huge gun hard to conceal but it works flawlessly on ANY ammo that you feed to it. If you want to learn.. as Sadatpk brother said CZ999 is a better choice but at the rate i got my NP22 i can buy two cz999 now a days. cz999 is roughly 58k and np22 is at 40k.
I carry it on Fobus holster makes it a really awesome pair, easy to draw and held tightly in holster, CZ999 doesn't go into the fobus properly though due to trigger guard being wider on the gun.
In dependability it is at par with any other top end gun and with the firing pin block you can carry it chambered and uncocked condition all the time. It is a really tough gun to beat, however in the accuracy it lacks at longer range when compared to CZ999. Maybe that is because i am pitting a pretty well used Np22 against a almost new CZ999 when comparing in accuracy.
@Glocker If you have the extra 18k go for CZ999 which is almost 50% more than NP22 but if you want to learn and use it a LOT then NP 22 wont disappoint you. both these guns are well above any gun in market in the < 60k range guns.

[ACHILLES]

np 22 is good pistol. np 34 is better to carry than np 22.

[Muhammad m]

there is good enough reviews on PG of both np22 and 34. search them up

Agreed with every word. The np22/34 are built like tanks. They are alright with local ammo too.
as for the price, they cost around 44 45k NIB.

i bought 1 last week

[Enigmatic Desires]

Star armoury was offering one used for 42k last month

[Glocker]

Thank you very much Brothers, specially Atiq sb....:-) I've gotten the answer to my question in detail and have made up my mind to go for NP22 instead of CZ999... The reason is that I'll be able to find and use lots of Sig P226's accessories like, Hogue FRG grip, holsters, 18 or 20 shot MecGar mags and may be night sights as well on NP22... Although CZ999 might be a better gun but won't be able to find accessories for it like I could do NP22..... Now waiting for this gun to arrive in Lahore as currently dealers are out of stock or will have to go to KHI to get one..... Anyway, THANK YOU very much once again... ALLAH bless all of you.... :-)

[mehranbiz]

May I know the current and fair price of NP 22

[Muhammad m]

43K karachi

[Muhammad m]

Well then it must also have a flamethrower attached to it

[Enigmatic Desires]

He offered an NIB one at 50K. maybe its the way I look.

Well.. 22s have a good reputation. low availability = high prices.
used np's dont come around much

[Glocker]

AOA Guys! Most of the videos and photos that I've seen of NP22 are the ones with the "Accessory Rail".... NP22 isn't available in LHE, but when I checked in the KHI market, I was told that NP22 with rail hasn't even been imported yet.....!!! Quite surprising..... because if it hasn't been imported yet then how come people are posting photos and videos of NP22 with an accessory rail....??? Any comments guys....???

[Enigmatic Desires]

Well.. 22s have a good reputation. low availability = high prices.

Even DAAD at Zamzama quoted 35k 90% condition (asking) for it...
