Walther Hammerli Forge H1 22 Long Rifle 5 in 12 rounds Matte

The Hammerli Arms Forge H1 Pistol 22 LR blends classic 1911 ergonomics with a modern rimfire platform from Walther Arms, delivering a 5" barrel, 9.4" overall length and a 12+1 capacity that make it well suited for range training, recoil-sensitive target work, and introduction to defensive-style pistols using .22 Long Rifle ammunition. The black serrated slide and matte black frame finish reduce glare while the black polymer grips and 34 oz empty weight provide a balanced hold for sustained dry-fire practice and rapid follow-up shots; the double-action-only (DAO) trigger and combined grip/thumb safety offer a consistent, deliberate pull and positive handling for new shooters and experienced instructors alike. Built on a 1911 platform family footprint, the Forge H1 retains familiar sight picture and controls so transition training to centerfire 1911s is straightforward, and its German origin attests to fit and finish standards common to Walther-affiliated designs. Because this is a regulated firearm, an FFL transfer is required, and the overall package suits range days, marksmanship drills, and fundamentals-focused instruction where reliable, economical .22 LR operation matters.
