Guess I'll throw my 2 cents worth in on this too. If your inexperienced then a revolver is definitely the easiest to learn. By learn I mean every gun owner should know how to properly disassemble/field strip their gun to clean, and what to do should you experience any problems when your shooting. That being the case a revolver is, by far, the best gun for someone new to firearms.
Now if you want to go with a good automatic, the Walther P22 is a great little pistol. I got my wife one about a year ago, and she's deadly with it. Even my 11 year old daughter can keep all her shots on the target and that's just on her second time shooting it. It's a bit of a PITA to field trip and reassemble, but it's a really nice shooting gun. Unlike many autos the barrel is fixed to the frame instead of floating within the slide. As a result it is alot easier to shoot accurately than many of the others.
Beyond that, all of the other brands and Models listed thus far are great handguns also. Personally I don't think you'd go wrong with any of them.
As far as buying new-vs-used, if you can get a good price then new is the way to go. One thing you'll find in the current market is that if the gun your looking for is considered popular, or a 'classic'/'collectible' then the price will be reflected accordingly in the used arena. In fact there are still folks out there trying to get prices for their used guns that are higher than most folks can get them new for with a little shopping around.
That all said, given the scarcity, an cost of .22 ammo at the moment, have you given a thought to any other caliber? If you look into anything else, then about the best one to look into is 9mm. I can't think of any revolvers chambered for that round, but the list of autos is nearly endless.
Beyond my recommendation on the Walther, again, all of the brands listed thus far make great pistols. Ultimately when your looking, if you find something you like, let us know on here. I'm sure someone will either have had direct experience with the model in question, or probably know someone else that did.

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
