Finally got the Mosquito in. I really like this one. It feels excellent in the hand and has a compact but tough essence to it that is very pleasing. It seems much thinner and smaller than the full sized 9mm P2022. Ad copy claims it to be 10% smaller than the flagship P226.
Stats tell the story:
P226
Overall Length 7.70 in
Overall Height 5.5 in
Overall Width 1.5 in
Barrel Length 4.4 in
Sight Radius 6.3 in
Weight w/Mag 34.0 oz
P2022
Overall Length 7.4 in
Overall Height 5.7 in
Overall Width 1.4 in
Barrel Length 3.9 in
Sight Radius 5.9 in
Weight w/Mag 29.0 oz
Mosquito
Overall Length 7.2 in
Overall Height 5.3 in
Overall Width 1.5 in
Barrel Length 3.9 in
Sight Radius 5.5 in
Weight w/Mag 24.6 oz
I just threw the P226 specs up there for interest. Other than that, just looking at the two polymer framed pistols (the P226 is all metal...retails for over a grand!) the Mosquito FEELS WAY smaller than the P2022...but the stats show it to be very close. Odd how the subjective can be skewed so much by such a small actual difference.
Problem already developing here! My wife has taken a real liking to the Mosquito! Oh oh!!!
