I do not own a 2022, however I do unfortunately own a 2340 which I bought new. Same gun except for the rail. I have absolutely no idea why I bought this thing, other than the fact that I was at a gun show and it was very inexpensive and carried the Sig name. It feels simply nasty with either of the two grips that come with it. It is a nightmare beyond description to take down. I admit that I have put less than 300 rounds through it, but pushing the slade catch lever button in enough to release the slide catch lever itself, requires the use of an old fashioned, round top clothespin and a coffen hoist. Well ok, maybe not a coffen hoist, but all the strength I have pushing on the clothespin and I am far from being a small man. I have had 4 malfunctions in that 300 rounds I have fired and I only use Golden Saber ammo, so it's not my ammo. Now I fully understand that the way a person feels about any particular firearm can influence how well that person is able to use it. That said, I have far greater accuracy using any of my Berettas or Glocks, 1911's or pretty much anything I own other than my Kahr P26 which I rate right down there with the 2340. Bottom line is in a matter of life and death, I would feel far safer throwing my 2340 at an attacker rather than shooting at him with it. At least I know my throw would work and I would have a better chance of hitting him. Oh and when I took it to my regular gunshop to trade it in for a Glock, they just laughed at me.
