Walther still makes a .22 PPK and believe me that is on my radar, as is the Bersa .380.
I thought Walther had dropped the PPK/S in .22 (again) and I do not see it on their lineup. The only thing I see is their 'PP' model .22s which I hear mixed reports on.
However if you are looking for a GREAT compact semi .22 you might try to find a Bersa 644 or 223.
These were 80's/90's era guns very similar to the Walther PPK/S and were imported by Interarms at the time. The 644 was the earliest version and had fixed sights and a rounded trigger guard (like mine in the picture) and the later 223 had the squared off trigger guard with adjustable sights.
Oddly you don't see too many and either there were not a lot of them around at the time or not popular but regardless they are highly sought after now as they are an excellent gun with great reviews. Ironically I was looking for an early PPK/S in .22 when I found mine and got it for $100. A good cleaning and it has literally the smoothest action of nearly any semi auto I have ever cycled. The slide has a glass smooth-like action on the frame and the finish is a beautiful deep blue on mine. It shoots excellently, is accurate and best part is it is all steel. I see them for sale online in the $200-$250 range and do not consider that bad for what they are.
NOW - Bersa is making a 'modern' version of it in their 'Thunder' line and I have held them at shows and they look pretty nice. They are alloy now but have a nice fit and finish and I think I would not hesitate to try one.

Henry's Facebook page was showing a "tacti-cool" black lever gun, with all the trappings of a typical AR-style rifle.

I commented that if they made it in 45LC, I'd buy two!

I would love to see Henry build a 'takedown' lever action .22, like the Chiappa LA322, or the old Browning takedown .22.

Brass or steel, O/U or side-by-side, doesn't matter to me.

I just think a Henry Double-Barreled would be very cool to own and shoot.

I know that someone makes one but I would not shoot a toggle link rifle in .44 magnum with full loads.
