*A twenty-two rifle is the basic gun that should be the foundation for every collection. They are inexpensive and fun to shoot, so everyone can develop the necessary skills to be a good marksman. Every home in the country needs a twenty-two standing by the door to deal with skunks, possums, coons and coyotes. A twenty-two rifle should not be underestimated for home defense, either. This Ruger 10/22 Sporter was bought off a used rack in Larry's Gun Shop, McLeansboro, Illinois many years ago. It has see-through scope mounts, and a 3 x 9 scope that came already sighted in. I have since added 1 1/4" sling swivels, a G.I. web sling, Volquartsen hammer and springs, and a Tactical Solutions Extended Magazine release. The bolt release has been altered so the bolt drops after a tug to the rear. The trigger pull is 2 pounds, 7 ounces with the Volquartsen upgrade.
A 10/22 that I got from the DNR auction a few years ago, has been my main target rifle this past summer. It isn't pretty, and it dislikes Federal rounds, but is a good accurate rifle.
ReplyDeleteI added a few Ruger 25 round magazines and I've enjoyed shooting that and my other 10/22's in the collection even more.
