Remember the bull pup stocks they used to make for them?

My 10/22 is a Delux version, so no barrel band and real Walnut checkered stock.

I don't remember if I got it in the late 60s or early 70s, but it is way more than 30 years old.

It is my favorite 22, I love the detachable 10 round mag, and we always keep it on the ready up at the cabin to dispatch porcupines. It is very light, short and handy.

It is not a target rifle, but it is plenty accurate at its useful range.

I think the magazine (and release thereof) is the worst thing about them things......

When I was like 12 I thought that was the coolest thing ever with a tear drop 50 mag

Good thing that when I built my scary black gun, I chose .308 over 6.5 creedmoor.

Actually, if anyone from the government is reading this...it doesn't exist anymore. It, like the rest of my guns, were lost in a tragic boating accident and now live at the bottom of the ocean...

I was never impressed with the tactical look...but, to each their own.

Same. Prefer some dead tree on a rifle. Plastic is for Legos.

Even on the black rifles and carbines it still gets called furniture.

If it wasn't for that and my job, I'd probably move somewhere else...but I'll deal with some of the silliness for now. That's all I'll say about that, don't want this thread to attract the attention of the moderators again.

No worries. “Other stuff” is now allowed!

A wheelie barrow for you guys at 58 seconds.

I’ve had three 10-22’s. One blued with a completely foldable ram line stock, one stainless with laminate, and one blued with wood. Owned a bunch of those ram line 30 and 50 shot banana mags. Those were crap! Even on the ones that would properly lock in, you’d be lucky to get 15 rounds before a jam. Looked cool but not functional.

The most accurate 22 I ever owned was a Weatherby semi auto. Stock looked like a mark v deluxe. The were made by someone else for Wby and replacement parts were inobtanium so I sold it. Super accurate with the fixed scope that it came with.

Don't know what to tell ya! Your probably buying cheap mags with plastic feed lips I'm assuming. Rugers BX 25 is a great 10/22 magazine. It is a Ruger factory magazine designed and built for the 10/.22. Mine work great!

That was the early 90’s….Ram line was only show in town at the time. Yes they were plastic crap. They went down the road years ago.

I think politics isn't considered part of the "other stuff" though...I'm not complaining, it's good to get a break from all that BS.

Doesn’t anyone work anymore

It's a crazy world we live in, Nate. Why, even @chipper1 has a J O B now.
