Christmas Gifts For Shooters

Here's an inexpensive item that will be liked by anyone with a 10/22 rifle. It's a replacement bolt buffer pin. This pin sits in the end of the action and intercepts the bolt during the firing cycle. The factory pin is solid steel, and it clacks. It also disturbs your follow-through just a bit when the bolt smacks into it. Nylon pins have been popular, but they need replacing after every three or four bricks of ammo, and the ones pictured here are steel on the inside, and polymer on the outside. They should run for a good long time. I picked these up from Midway (#814069) and plan to try them out soon.
