Small scale .22LR semi-autos

[Teapot]

Are there any smaller scale for smaller hands pistols out there? The usual fare of Rugers, Sig mosquito, or Buckmarks will not do it. They were built for adults. Any really small pistols from foreign manufacturers out there?
My son has a Walther P-22 that will not work. Have contacted the Cdn dealer and he has never done anything since I called him. Walther USA (S&W) refers me to him so I have no options left. I did e-mail Walther in Germany a week ago and have not rx'd a reply yet.
Any ideas for other small pistols?

Teapot,

Can you elaborate on the p22's issues?

There are alot of p22 owners on this board (myself included) who can help get her up and running again.

Norinco .22 has a pretty small grip...

I believe the Star has a small grip. My dad has one, but I haven't seen it in a long time. If you want, I will check it out to see if it is as small as I remember.

If you have 12.6 status, check out a Llama XV. They are pretty small and are a mini-copy of a 1911, but in .22 LR.

Uh.. What's the point of that when it can't be brought to the range anyway?
Am I missing something hugely obvious?

yea, you are- the restriction applies only to the 12( 2-5) holders, not the 12(6) or 12(7) short barreled pistols are ok for range- i wish SOMEBODY WOULD educate the newbies on the regs-here's ANOTHER case of misinformation

12.6 can be brought to the range.

Well, thanks for educating me on that piece of information.

Star model F or FM is probably one of the smallest non-prohib .22 autos out there. I have a Model F but I like the FM in this pic much better.

The slide will move back, eject the spent casing and then go forward but stops short enough not to strip a round from the magazine.
Tetragon Tasse , the official repair shop in Canada for Walther, has sent the pictures I took to Carl Walther GmbH. That was a couple of months ago. Nothing heard since.

I hope this helps... their p22 forum is second to none...
