Sig Sauer's P322 pairs a compact .22 LR frame with a single-action trigger, a 4-inch threaded barrel, a 7-inch overall length and a weight of 17.1 ounces. Two 10-round magazines give it 10+1. The front sight is fiber optic and the rear adjusts; lift off the rear sight plate and a compatible red dot mounts directly with no adapter. The manual safety is ambidextrous, the magazine catch reverses, and the frame carries an M1913 rail. Flat and curved trigger shoes both come in the box.

In New Jersey this is a range and training pistol. A rimfire laid out like a centerfire carry gun lets a new permit holder, fresh from the safety course the state has required since July 2022, build habits cheaply before stepping up. Since the state allows only one handgun purchase in any 30-day period, a trainer that also serves as a plinker is a sensible use of that slot.
