I have had several .22 lr rifles and a few pistols through the years. Currently I have a Glenfiel Model 10 (single shot, bolt must be pulled/cocked before it can be fired) that my grandfather bought so I could keep the rabbit and armadillo population down, a CZ 452 American that is scoped up, and a Henry Golden Boy lever that I bought for the wife several years back. I am currently trying to figure out what pistol I want, or just get a conversion kit for the 1911 ior CZ 75B.

BTW, great looking pics.

Ruger makes a really good product. I have heard really good things about the 10-22 rifle. I personally own a .22 ruger handgun built on a .45 frame. It has a target barrel six inches long and target sights. It is the most accurate handgun that I own.

Gotta get me a .22, maybe by tax return time.

I've got a couple .22's, but honestly haven't done to much with them.
This one's a WW2 trainer that I got from the CMP. Mossberg M44 US. The best $100 I ever spent.

Despite being 60 years old and not having a great trigger, it still does okay.

Here's a 50 yd target I happened to keep when I was sighting it in over the summer. This was without really trying, and using cheap ammo (whitebox from Wal-Mart)

I wish I'd have kept the target I shot after I got the sights adjusted....

I liked that Mossberg so much, I bought another- M44B

I've got a couple of Romanian .22 trainers, a Marlin-Glenfield Model 60, and I think that's about it, in terms of .22 lr rifles.

I've got a pair of Walther P-22 pistols set up as suppressor hosts, and a Taurus PT-22 that I picked up for $50 at an estate sale. I had a Ruger Mk. II 10.5 bull barrel silhouette pistol, but a friend insisted he needed it more than I did. I am however, on the lookout for a Smith & Wesson 17, 617, K22, or 18 .22 caliber revolver <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Funny, I've got an M44. Mine's a Mosin-hahaha. Still, 65 years old and deadly. One of the 1943 Izhevsk models btw.

Hey Pitbull I have a Winchester 75 Military trainer. The piece is mint, and it was made in 1941. Shoots great too. Wish I could find another one....... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I see those for sale every so often at shows here.

What I really want is a Winchester Model 52. Those are sweet. They're also collectible and high dollar...some day...
