Guns Listing ID: 608202



The Jennings Firearms J-22 is a compact semi-automatic pistol that became widely known in the late 20th century for its affordability and simple construction. Produced primarily during the 1970s through the 1990s, the J-22 was chambered in .22 Long Rifle, a common rimfire cartridge often associated with basic target shooting and training. Its small size and lightweight design made it easily recognizable among inexpensive handguns of its era.

The J-22 features a minimalist design with a short barrel, fixed sights, and a straightforward blowback operating system. Many examples were built using a zinc-based alloy frame paired with steel components, a cost-saving approach that allowed the pistol to be sold at a much lower price than many competitors. The grip frame is compact, typically fitted with simple plastic grip panels, and the pistol feeds from a single-stack magazine. Overall, the design emphasizes simplicity rather than refinement.

Historically, the Jennings J-22 is often discussed as part of a broader category of low-cost American firearms sometimes referred to as “Saturday night specials." While opinions on its durability and performance vary, the pistol remains a notable example of how firearm manufacturing adapted to meet demand for inexpensive personal firearms during that period. Today, the J-22 is no longer in production but continues to appear in discussions of firearm history as a reflection of changing regulations, manufacturing practices, and consumer markets. Its legacy lies less in precision or craftsmanship and more in its role as a symbol of a specific era in American firearms production.
