>>61950972Japan is utopia! No gun in japan!
>>61951278No guns here also, yet i managed to rebuild a 22 semiauto smuggling parts from Argentina
Every American should have one of these they're so cheap.
>>61951826I've thought about getting one so I can say I own a Saturday Night Special, but I wouldn't get it in 22lr, I'd get in 25ACP.
Why doesn't any company sell 22lr in cans, like actual cans. It'd be a fun little novelty, and you could probably get 100-200 rounds in one of those tiny 8oz tomato cans.
>>61951886Lemme go find an old ammo thread; I swear to god CCI or someone did that.
>>61951886IIRC it sucked ass but someone did it.
>>61951886
>>61951886I forgot Fiochi and Federal did it too.
>>619518862
>>61951979Need. I don't even care if it's good ammo, I want the novelty and nice hiss.
>>61952035I think it was only the Grom that was meh. I forget about the Fiocchi and Federal. I think they were fine. But IIRC you could get Russian steel case 22LR in large spam cans as well. I know they came in crates with ~5-6 cases inside but I forget if any ever came in spam cans inside those crates or not.
>>61951938>>61951966>>61951979>>61952013Can you still buy any of these? I want them
>>61952051Too bad it looks like the Federal has been discontinued and I can't imagine the Fiocchi is still being made. I don't care enough to try tracking anything down.
>>61952103Maybe the Grom but not in the US. I don't think I've seen canned or bottled (OP pic) or even milk carton 22LR in years.
>>61952144How many rounds could that carton actually survive?
Daisy pellets may still come in cartons though IIRC. I have an old one and the top can fold flat while still closed so it's not much more awkward than a regular box.>>61952154IDK but they pack these things to the brim with air rifle pellets to the point it feels like a solid lead brick so I imagine quite a lot.
>>61952144Target Sport USA has both cans and bottles available right now. I guess the bucket o' bullets also counts.
>>61952154IDK if Daisy still does it. They had a blue carton similar to CCI blue maybe in the 90s (?). I have one floating around. Crosman still does it though and this is about 1.3lbs. Does not sound heavy until you pick up one of these things and go "what the fuck?"
>>61952144>Pour pack>Poor packHeh, get it?
WHY THE FUCK IS MY EXPENSIVE ASS 10/22 SHAVING OFF BITS AND PIECES OFF EACH BULLET?!?! FUCK
>>61952321Clean your barrel
>>61952321>buying a ruger, everLol, couldn't be me.

>>61952599I did clean it. Still working with kids to figure out why the fuck it's not feeding properly. I'm starting to doubt it's a magazine issue seeing how every CCI mini mag and SV is getting shaved with every single bx-1 mag I own.
>>61952607I wish it was a ruger
>>61952629>KidsFucking autocorrect. I meant Kidd.
>>61951278>No gun in japanhttps://youtu.be/UwipKbbMt2A?si=3SVGrZkqZMlMJjW9
>>61952612Is that an adapter for a non-threaded barrel? How well does it work? I'm assuming you're not in the US or you wouldn't risk a silencer with one lol.
>>61951826>every American should have a Canadian gun
>>61952881Well, it's not made in America so that's a plus.
>>61952881You don't want a hat gun?
>>61951278>Japan is utopia! No gun in japan!ImpressiveVery niceNow lets see that suicide statistic
>>61952881>>61952948https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ontario,_California
>>61953306Oh hey, that's where Maglites are (were?) made.
>>61952626huh? Britain?
>>61950972>flobertshow common is 9mm flobert in the US? Here in Italy in my region almost everyone has an old unregistered 9mm flobert in the attic as they were mostly used as snake guns.
>>61951886Because 22lr is not a perishable produce that requires airtight storage.
>>61953725Extremely uncommon. I think the only time I saw one was in a youtube video where a guy bought one that came in from a batch of European guns.
walther SP22 M3 or 4 for 200€, am I making a mistake? I have trouble finding information about the gun. I know it will not be fixable if something breaks as it's discontinued. I want a 22 pistol to practice because I'm a terrible shot.
>>61954434>Walther SP22I have nothing to say except that gun looks neat. A Ruger might be a little better considering parts availability (assuming Europe can get parts as easy as the US). Just get one with a threaded barrel if you're in a country where silencers are easy to get as re-barreling a Ruger Standard/MK is a huge PITA. I remember reading an old magazine where they were talking about rebarreling a Standard or MK I and they pretty much destroyed the original barrel. And the receiver isn't the lower/grip on Rugers so it's not a simple "just buy another upper", at least in the US.I have a MK II I really want to get a second upper for so I can shoot it silenced. Shoots pretty well; I shoot it more than most other handguns as I don't practice shooting handguns anywhere near how often I should. Do you want it for general practice or are you getting it for competition or something?
CBC (Magtec) has a 300 rnd can
>>61954723What is motivating me with this one is the price, Ruger has insane resell value, a mark 2 is easily 700€. A friend has a mark 4, it's a beautiful piece but very picky on ammo and it was 1200€...Getting parts is a thing but it's not easy because some parts need special permits like barrels, they also have an insane markup... Suppressors are fairly cheap for 22lr, anything bigger is way too expensive...
Does suppressed 22lr dirty much quicker compared to subgun 9mm?
>>61954934It does even without a suppressor.
>>61950972inb4 5.7 autist arrives to shit up the thread
inb4 ATF shoots your dog, but how well do oil filters actually work as suppressors for .22lr?
>>61951826But can you do this?
>>61955556Pm $200 and I'll ell you in a few months
I have a mk4 and I love it. I want another mk. Is mk3 good? Recommend me a specific model.
>>61956122Mk1-3's are a bitch to break down to clean.>Mk3 owner
>>61956122I was gifted a MKIII as a teenager and bought a MKIV as an adult. I would not by anything other than a MKIV moving forward
can a gun be brought back for years of abuse? I tried a gun today, the guy cleans it with wd40 and the fire residue became some kind of oily gunk. It's very cheap but I'm limited in the amount of guns I can own and getting rid of a gun can be tricky. It cycled well and had no malfunction during the limited testing
>>61951826Where'd you get the scope mount?
>>61953577Chile
>>61956441It should clean up and work well. I've seen a lot of vintage 22s that have never been cleaned. Most work fine. Sometimes the dirt can hide broken parts but if the gun fired and cycled then it's probably fully functional.
>>61957247>Sometimes the dirt can hide broken partsI don't worry too much about that, under the polymer housing, it's full steel
>>61950972>buy a 3" 22lr adapter for my 12ga o/u out of curiosity>expect it to be decently accurate at 30yards and turn my o/u into a novelty plinker>every round keyholes at 10 yards>sadface.jpg
>want Mark IV with top rail>hate the way the grip feels on 22/45>Tactical is out of stock everywhere and the places that do have it are charging six hundred fucking dollarsI'm not scoring shit for Independence Day am I
>>61957655Mk 4s should include a rail with it unless it's a tapered barrel version. Or just buy a rail to put on it. All heavy barrels are already drilled and tapped.
Whats up with the new TX22 gen 2 barrels. Theyre 1:10 twist.?
bump
>>61950972I am going to conduct an experiment to discover how many 22LRs it takes to bore through a tree. I am going to have a complete pilot hole. A half pilot hole. A bullet length pilot hole. And a entrance shot at random where that point will then be shot at repeatedly precisely until it is bored through.
>>61951826What a nice snooty lookin gun
>>61959875Remember to record barrel length, ammo used, distance from tree (muzzle to tree), round count, tree depth. And maybe use said tree for a new stock.
>>61950972anyone know what this mag is for?
>>61956122>>61956356I love my MKIV as well, but I was less than thrilled to learn the front sight is plastic, the magazine bases are made soft plastic, the rear sight was off center, and the rear sight screws walk out on me. What fixes / parts do you recommend to address these problems?
>>61960773Buy better sights and use loctite
>>61960773the front sight is plastic? really?my rear sight is also ever so slightly off center, i was going to mail it out, but never did. hasnt bothered me enough.use loctite. all the screws on my mk4 walk out.
>>61957655tacticals are worth the $600 they are charging.the picatiny rail is $40def dont buy the 45, ugly plasticget the target or hunter in ss.or thishttps://www.omahaoutdoors.com/ruger-mark-iv-tactical-22-lr-10rd-4-4/
What length barrel should I go with for this thing? My goal is to basically be able to shoot bulk pack 22 at close to sub sonic valocity and tuck the suppressor under the handguard. Was either thinking of a 7.5 inch or a 5.5 inch barrel but I'm not sure which would work best.
Bumpan with a Norinco JW25. Not mine.
>>61952612What am I looking at on the bottom?
>>61960727Is there a stamp or other marking on the bottom?
>>61962179Its a modified hämmerli 240mag for a peter stahl s&w model 51 conversion. actually found it through google lens.
>>61960968>What length barrel should I go with for this thing? My goal is to basically be able to shoot bulk pack 22 at close to sub sonic valocity and tuck the suppressor under the handguard. Was either thinking of a 7.5 inch or a 5.5 inch barrel but I'm not sure which would work best.7.5 is perfect. if you can unthread the supressor without having to reach into the handguard even better.
I just bought my first 22 rifle but I'm not sure what optic to put on it for up to 100 yards. Red dots, prism scopes, rifle scopes, is there a standard?
>>61962343Just your personal preference and what you plan on using it for. Hunting, plinking, competition shooting, etc.
Bought a MK IV Standard this morning, what am I in for?
>>61962772Regret for not buying a target
>>61962780This. Bull barrel mk series are tack drivers. And better options for aftermarket sights
>>61962169Mk2 Volquartsen LLV
>>61960877Can do, I use the loctite on the screws and no problems so far, I gotta be patient with zeroing it in.>>61960916Yes, from what I understand it is plastic, BUT I could be wrong. I'll be calling Ruger's customer service just to be sure. It's not the end of the world if it is, I just expected a metal front sight for what I paid, which is honestly not bad at all. The plastic mag plates are absolutely getting trashed though. You can literally scrape and dent the plastic with your finger nail. I was looking at the Tamdemkross or Volquartsen mag plates as the better product. That's a no-brainer for me.
>>61962343IMO, if you're only shooting out to 100 yards, you don't need an optic, just decent irons.
New thread. Yay.I like 22s.AMA
>>61963733Checked. 22's are based. What would you recommend for a first 22 rifle that's good quality? What is your personal favorite 22 rifle or pistol?
>>61964452>What would you recommend for a first 22 rifle that's good quality?Depends on if you want a manual action or a semi-auto. I don't do semi-auto 22's. Too easy for me to get impatient and waste a magazine without taking a good shot. The standard seems to be the Ruger 10/22, but there may be better options at the same price point. I don't honestly know the semi-auto 22 rifle market worth a shit.The vast majority of manual action 22s will be turn bolt action. If you're wanting something for a kid/tween/young teen, I'd go with a single shot. That way they can't turn around looking for approval after taking that really good shot and flag you with a loaded rifle. As far as single shots go you can do worse than a Rascal or a Crickett. You can probably do better as well, but they're both cheap, accurate, and good learners. The Rascal is made better, but the stock is crap, IMO. For an adult, get yourself the Ruger American rimfire if you want to go lower price point. It's a fine rifle for what it is. If you want something in a higher price point, go with a CZ 457. You won't get a more accurate 22 at that price point. The mags are expensive, but they're steel and should last forever. If you want more accuracy you'll have to go big bucks like a Vudoo or similar. But at that point IMO you're chasing very diminishing returns that would only matter to a competition shooter.I answered the personal fav last thread, but I'll recap : the US flag Crickett is my fav 22 that I own. I have objectively "better" rifles, but that rifle was an important learning/self teaching tool. It was the first I split a card with. I am very confident if it was in a lead sled it would be a sub MOA gun. For about $120 bucks you can't really beat that.
So I got the new magazines Kidd sent me, and I bought some CCI SV and mini mag.Shot 40 mini mags and 50 SVs today and I was wiping the chamber with almost every reload. Got one jam with the SV, after not wiping for 27 shots, and no jams with the mini mag. So the FTF issues I've been having is mostly due to the ammo I was using before I guess because I only got that jam with one of the new mags and none of my old ones jammed so far unlike before where it was 1-2 times per mag.The only other issue is that I'm seeing some shavings after every reload, is that normal? I mean the supergrade does have a match barrel so it's tighter than normal barrels right?
>>61950972My favorite .22>22/.410 over-under
>>61964452>What would you recommend for a first 22 rifle that's good quality?Go to a pawn shop or 3, see what they have
>>61964452get a bolt action like a CZ 457 or something, never buy into the expensive ruger 10/22 memes like the kidd like I did. Biggest regret purchase for a firearm so far. it's total fucking shit.
>>61960773That's really weird; they were a pinned piece of sheetmetal in the MK IIs. Real easy replacement. One pin.>>61963496I really don't want to dig through my mags to get my mags but that's so weird the plastic would be that soft. I have a MK III (?) mag for my MK II and one of the modern grey ones and neither ever felt that soft...
>>61952612Is that a threaded barrel or do you use the adapter thingy? I have an 18” barrel I was thinking g would be good to swap for a threaded factory 16”. Any suggestions for cans? Dont know shit about rimfire cans. >>61963251Got when I was in HS, maybe 1989? Still love it.>>61963733 As a P Series nerd the GSG is tempting. >>61965435I read you can use MkIII mags in a MkII but no Uno reverse card.
I want a .22lr revolver but I don't want to spend more than $300. I'd prefer 9 shot capacity and cowboy-style wood grips. Adjustable sights would be preferred but not a dealbreaker. 22 WMR cylinder would also be neat but not required >Heritage Rough Rideror>Ruger Single Nineor>any other suggestions?
>>61965707Okay I was wrong. Came with a MK II mag as pictured, then I bought a silver baseplate mag that I forget which generation it was. Holds one less round though which is annoying considering it's just the design of the follower spring nub that causes it.>I read you can use MkIII mags in a MkII but no Uno reverse card.I don't see why MK III mags would be any different than II. But unless a MK III has the MK IV upgrades (IIRC they don't which is the point of the IV) you should be able to swap a MK II lower on it no issues and I think the mags should freely interchange as well unless the side nub changed size. I'd have to look into it.
>>61965864Haven't heard great things about the Heritage other than it being cheap. I'd go with a Ruger. Also Diamondback exists and I think that they're neat since they're pretty much a Hi Standard Double Nine AFAIK (DA and swing out cylinder!) but they're cheap zinc framed revolvers unlike the originals unfortunately.
>>61965864Ruger single 9 will be well above $300. There is the chiappa saa1873 9 shot, longer barreled models have adjustable rear sights but all models suffer the original saa drawback of having to keep one cylinder chamber empty.
>>61963733What's that one that looks like a Mosin?
>>61965864My rough rider has been great and it's one of the most accurate guns I own. However based on other ppls experience I got one of the rare good ones, so ymmv. It's even more accurate than my Ruger mk IV. Can't speak to more since I only have one.
Fellas, I want to get a Mk IV but much prefer the 45 grip angle. I also can't buy pistols with threaded barrels. Am I stuck with the basic 22/45 model? Can it be upgraded and which upgrades would you do to it?
>>61967165I got one with a 16 barrel and an 6" mk4. It's as accurate as my mk4 inmo, but with a scope on my Ruger, it's more accurate at 25y. Also I hear that since they can also fire 22 mag, the barrels are made for mag. And have a slight gap which lowers their accuracy when using 22lr.
>>61966683KSA Mini Mosin.It's basically a Crickett in a shirt and tie. Still single shot, manual cock, bolt action.https://keystonesportingarmsllc.com/product/mosin-nagant-model-91-30/
>>61967684>Still single shot, manual cockSo close to greatness...
>>61967878Looks like it could have been tube fed, too. If it was I'd be looking for one already.
>>61967927Yup. They did the same with their M1903 and wounded me greatly. I would've loved a little bolty .22 with a small mag and artificial historic flavoring. Maybe I'd still be interested if it was only single shot, but I'm not going to fumble with rounds that small AND perform an extra clocking action every round.
>>61965864Super Wrangler and buy wood grips. I've handled Rough Riders and I wan't impressed, plus the external safety is gay. I love my standard Wrangler, Im sure the super is good too.

>>61952612Nice Luger
Latest acquisition, Ruger Super Wrangler Talo Edition with pearl grips. Sorry for the potato quality pic
>>61970540Neat
>>61963733Even seeing a picture of it again has reignited my desperate want for a 457 jag.
>>61955556>how well do oil filters actually work as suppressors for .22lr?pretty mediocre
>>61969185>https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1053823202NTA but if I have a already MKIV 22/45 Lite I could take this upper assembly, swap out the bolt assembly, and place this on the 22/45 grip I have and be good to go? The barrel assemblies are interchangeable? Also I thought the upper assembly were the serialized part is it just the grip?>>61970540Nice>>61967964>>61967927>>61967878>>61967684yeah those are super disappointing to me. Even a 5 round box mag would make it worthwhile to me but no. >pic related is close-ish to a Nugget and something I've looked at >>61966676>There is the chiappa saa1873 9 shot, longer barreled models have adjustable rear sights but all models suffer the original saa drawback of having to keep one cylinder chamber empty.>>61968086Super Wrangler and buy wood grips. I've handled Rough Riders and I wan't impressed, plus the external safety is gay. I love my standard Wrangler, Im sure the super is good too.Both of those are why I'm interested in the Heritage desu. Just had my first child and those seem like good safety features to teach her to shoot.
>>61971054What's stopping you from buying one?
>>61971787Ahhhhh fuck I swear to god there's a 22LR trainer mosin. It's a carbine. It's Chinese or Romanian I THINK but can't know for sure. It's mag fed. Maybe I'm mixing it up with other Chinese trainers I've seen come through some LGSs.
I might just be going insane. Here's a Polish WZ-48 trainer but single shot. Cock on close.
>>61972626Honestly, wanting to save up for some more important things currently. That and I already have things to plink with. I'll get it someday, just not today.

Bump
i got a boner for one of these. gonna put a can on it when i get it
Shitifornia's new 11% additional gun/ammo tax takes effect on Monday, and thanks to Uncle Sam I'm stuck here for the foreseeable future. Should I grab a few more bricks of .22LR before then, so I can continue to plink for a few years until things get better and/or I get out? I can score 500 rounds of CCI Blazer for about $45 (a sale price out in this hellhole), if the store has any in stock left, and if I ration my range trips each brick can last me a couple years. Good idea?
>>61971787Rough Riders have regular part breakage issues IIRC. Wranglers are Ruger, so it takes a lot more abuse to break them.
>>61977880I just stocked up too. If spending the money won't hurt you it's an easy way to save a few bucks (and give fewer to The Man), but you should probably prioritize any other calibers you have first since .22 is so cheap.
>>61977880Things will never get better. Why can't people understand this?
>>61978113>>61978189Hope's pretty thin, but SCOTUS seems willing lately. That said, it'll take years at best and I'm as well stocked on all my other calibers as I'll ever get (everything affordable's already sold out due to the TAX PANIC going on right now). Might as well stack my .22LR deeper so I can at least shoot SOMETHING regularly.
>>61978245Dream on. The government will never side with the people. No matter what the scotus rules, it will be with limitations and new laws that fuck us over as always.
>>61952144 They still sell the blazer cartons but they are priced for more per round than the 50 and 525 round boxes.
>>61979137That's a shame. I get that it's yet another box to have to stock and fill but why make it in the first place if they're just going to make it more expensive?
Got 500 Rd of minimag for like $43. How'd I do?
is it worth it for me to get a cz 457 varmint just because the kidd 10/22 rifle I got was so bad and pissed me the fuck off? Or am I gonna regret this purchase too?
>>61980542where?
>>61981341Gun Show
>>61980982You should buy a Tikka T1x
>>61980542Could be worse, I just got two 500 round bricks of CCI Blazer 40 grain LRN for about $45 each (last ones in the store), last minute Shitifornia panic buy before the new 11% tax kicks in tomorrow. It works well in my converted Glock so I want to stock up before this shit goes down.
>>61952881
>>61982382I heard those have feeding issues and that's what was happening with my 10/22
Any Tikka T1x bros around?I'm currently trying to come up with a double stack magazine for the Tikka. The possible upside being that you could get almost flush 10 rounders or 15 rounders of the same size as the original or even 20 rounders that aren't too big.I've so far got the feeding partially working, the rounds stack up great and move in the mag without much friction and loading is pretty easy. I am however getting a lot of nose drop issues during chambering so there's still more work to do.
>>61983185Feeding works very well with my 2021 dated Tikka but I wouldn't be surprised if they had feed issues at some point since feeding 22lr can be really tricky, I'd say about 10x more difficult to get right than common rimless rifle cartridges.
>>61950972Just got some of these slowbois and can't wait to see how they sound.
>>61954434>>61954916Didn't you buy it already? Or is there ANOTHER guy in europe who bought his first gun and it's a Walther SP22? He was asking about disassembly in /hg/ because it was coated in years of caked up WD40 glue>>61954934Generally yes but it depends on the gun. My TX22 has thousands of suppressed rounds but it's not that dirty because the slide is open, where a Ruger Mark encapsulates all that crap within the receiver and they get filthy. An MP5 for example is completely enclosed and that gets gunked up quicker than say a Beretta 92.>>61956225They aren't difficult at all to field strip if that's what you mean. But getting the lower apart to detail every part is a bit annoying>>61959875Dustin beat ya to it lolhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TJYFf9bwSchttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHKOYu1Sr-4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9CDSN6LB7U>>619609685.5" is at the edge of making some subsonic ammo supersonic, I have to imagine 7.5" would push it over. CCI SV occasionally goes supersonic in my 5.25" TX22, but it does not in my 4". I have a 5.5" AR but I have only shot supersonic bulk through it and can't say whether higher FPS subsonic like CCI SV at "1070" would go over in that platform
>>61983200I don't own or ever plan on owning one but that's pretty neat anon. keep up the good work
>>61960968>and tuck the suppressor under the handguardis that what the pink thing is for? what do you mean?
>>61983366I think he means like this
>>61980982You will not regret buying and owning a CZ 457.Unless you somehow have the luck of getting a lemon. But that shouldn't happen. I haven't heard of any quality control issues in CZ's rimfire rifles. I own a 457 Jaguar and it is the bees knees. I adore that looong sight radius. Lets me split cards at 25 yards off hand.
>>61983371>>61983366That's pretty much exactly what I want. Just a short little guy for shenanigans. Fucking sweet build btw. My spikes handguard is too long so I'm probably just gonna go with a 5.5 barrel and cut my tube handguard down abit. Also forgot to mention that I need a 5.56 barrel since I'm using the the cmmg conversion bolt. I know I should get the dedicated bolt but I'm lazy lol.
>>61983451Wait yours has a gas tube? If it's a 5.56 upper you may as well take one of those two handguards and the .22 guts aside, and just make a dedicated .22 upper. That way you get that correct .22 twist rate and don't have to worry about the adapter or gas tube gunking up. You're going to buy a new shorter barrel anyway, so just add the $50 CMMG barrel collar and a $50 stripped upper to your build and bingo bango. I'm sure you have a GI charging handle laying around lolI really like that Maglite tube >>61960968 I think that looks really cool and something you don't see much these days. A slab side upper (no FA) would really suit the tube look too. This is an old outdated pic but the only one I can find of the right side showing no FA on my .22 AR
>>61983451>>61983740Oh... you already did... I see the collar and two different receivers nevermind lolWhy is that gas block and gas tube on there?
>>61983740Didn't like the savage mkii??
>>61983740what is the firearm with the banana magazine in the middle in the bottom row of the upper pix between the revolver and .22 pistol?
>>61983764I never really liked it because it's so chintzy feeling but I kind of regret selling it. I needed to ditch some guns and it's one I hardly ever shot so away it went. But it shot above its weight. I think I paid $169 for the gun new lol before stock and optic, and it turned in some impressive groups with bulk ammo.>>61983847Charter Arms Explorer II with a 25 round AR-7 mag. It's just awful lol
>>61983750I reconfigured some parts now that my new anderson upper arived and I'm just gonna set it up with my 10.5 inch odin barrel as a fuckaround upper for both 5.56 and 22lr. Once I get a shorter barrel (probably a 5.5 inch) I'm just gonna install that in my billet 9mm upper with my tube handguard and use that as a dedicated 22lr upper.
>>61951826that's not a heritage rough rider
>>61951826I agree every American should have a gun from an early '60's Bond assassin's briefcase and it should be a.22lr.
>>61960727Pretty sure that's a handgun mag.
Why didn't anyone tell me that super colibri are fucking quieter than a pellet gun.
>>61952881Every American should own a garand also
One gun is a fun LARP toy that I shoot at the flat range for classes every month, the other one I take with me every time I go camping, backpacking, or after dark hiking. Guess which one is which.
>>61983356>Didn't you buy it already?It was me in both threads, bought it and cleaned it, I will go try it tomorrow. It has been used quite a lot, I hope I will be able to put a few thousand rounds through it over a few years.
Are there any decent 10/22 scope rings that allow me to use my standard iron sights and a LVPO?
>>61991918no
>>61991843>cleaned itNice! Anything give you problems? No lost parts?
I just bought some Hogue grips for my MK IV 22/45
Order of 5k just arrived :)
>>61991439I find it really depends on what you shoot it out of and where; acoustics are a bitch and berm and wall layout greatly affect perceived volume. Shoot silenced 22s and you'll be hooked. A silenced 10/22 with ~1025 FPS ammo is great. Shoot 710 Quiets out of that and it's funny. Shoot super colibris out of that silenced 10/22 and it's retarded how quiet it is.
>>61991918Probably not without downsides with ring height but you might be able to get away with using a set of see-through rings Weaver makes (direct screw to receiver). However, downsides aside, they're cheap and either available at Cabelas or Walmart with the scopes in the hunting aisle, probably under $20, so at worst you put them on, don't like them, and return them. A lot of people use them on just about any gun they can stick them on. Hell I've seen a (non variable) low power scope on a 10/22 using those exact rings. Wasn't too bad IIRC but I'd prefer med/low rings, but then you can't use irons. Pic of the Weaver rings. They come in silver and blued.Funny no one makes those old swing/tip scope mounts anymore considering we have magnifier mounts that work almost exactly alike.
>>61995401>Funny no one makes those old swing/tip scope mounts anymoreNTA but I'm not sure what you're referring to. Is that what was in your pic?
>>61995639No, what I'm referring to when I say swing out rings is pic related. The one in my post you replied to was just a see-through set of high rings Weaver makes.
>>61995639Old pivot mount pivoted. IDK if one was ever made for a 10/22 and I kinda doubt it as I've never seen it done. Screw holes from another mount might line up if you're lucky or you could get a mount for another gun modified by a competent smith who can keep the holes straight but I've never used one of these scope mounts and frankly I don't know how well they return to zero or how stable they are which could affect group size majorly making it useless for anything but plinking.
>>61995695>>61995677woah that's cool, I've never seen those before
>>61995719I see them pop up rarely. They're all vintage so condition varies wildly. The only reason I say I don't know how stable of a mount they are is that they're designed for guns used on big game, so deer, elk, bear, etc. where a small amount of scope wiggle or variation in return to zero when swiveled off and snapped back on might not matter at 50yds. Compared to a 10/22 where the biggest thing you'd use it on is a fox if not something as small as a groundhog or squirrel. Vitals are a lot smaller and power is a lot lower. I'll have to get one of those mounts some day and see how good they are. Do remember that IIRC modern picatinny QD gets within around 1 MOA of when you zeroed it so who knows what these swing mounts are like. Compared to the nice clamps modern pic QDs have, the vintage mounts are only held in place with a stamped piece of spring steel on the edge of each ring on one side.
>>61991826Are there larger mags for the AR-7 thing?
I have a marlin model 60, but I want something mag fed and easy to clean.What do?
>>61995334I'm shooting them out of an unsilenced 10/22 and they are still quiet. I think they are quieter than my old break barrel .22 pellet gun.
>>61996059Either go for the other marlin with a mag (I forget the model number) or get a 10/22. There's the Turkchester 10/22 clone (the Wildcat) too which is easier to take apart and cheaper but Turkish made "with globally sourced parts" and doesn't have the aftermarket.
>>61996132The 10/22 is interesting like that. I shot some 1,025 (?) FPS Aguila out of mine with no silencer and I swear it feels hearing safe with no berms around. I wouldn't trust my gut feeling but man it feels it. Doesn't matter when I have a silencer and can shoot 1,025 silenced about as quiet or quieter than unsilenced Colibris though. If the 1,025 aren't as quiet, the 710s for sure are.
>>61996014There are 15 rounders that I have purchased but I won't recommend until I test them
>>61996188The marlin internals are awful.Probably just going to settle for a 10/22.
>>61996300I have a 10/22 I've spent a considerable amount on; bought it new, stock, and put it together exactly how I wanted. North of $1k between gun, parts, and silencer. No regrets. Also have one I bought used that's almost completely stock (~$200-250, nice older sporter). Both are very nice. You'll probably be able to find a really good deal on one on gun.deals with July 4th coming up as long as you have an FFL to ship to and you don't mind getting a plastic stock model you might end up replacing the stock on. My only complaint with the 10/22 is that stupid recoil spring guide rod piece. I think I'd like if they made it so you can take it apart for cleaning and made it easier to put the bolt back in it would be perfect, but it could be way worse and it's not so bad that I'd consider a Wildcat or pester Ruger to MK IV-ify (or Fletcher 11/22-ify) the 10/22; it's a mild inconvenience at worst. The rest of the parts are just pinned in place and by the third time you take it apart those pins just about fall out when the gun comes out of the stock lol. Remember that I'm also shooting silenced with cheap/dirty ammo so it's extra filthy. And while I spent a lot of money on mine, it started out as what is now a $280 10/22, even cheaper than when I bought mine.
>>61956454looks 3d printed
>>61952626because of the funny folding stock or because you got your hands on guns they didnt want you to have
>>61983740What's the Charter Arms looking green rifle? It has a Sten-ish appearance that I like.
I want to use wipeout to clean my .22. do you know what I can use to plug up the chamber so it doesn't leak all over the action?
>>61996403I'll probably just settle for a ruger. Torn between getting a threaded one (throw my 30 cal can on until I get a 22) or a mannlicher.
>>61983740Does feather still make things? How is the 22?
Back in my day 500 rounds of 22lr was 19.95
>>61996551The one crossed out with green paracord? Looks like an AR-7 with some modifications.>>61996563A threaded model would be nice; I was just wishing Ruger would make a threaded mannlicher. I wouldn't be surprised if Europe gets them as they don't make threaded sporters with irons either but they used to (and still might) for the Euro market. I don't get why they make this 22" sporter and don't offer it threaded either. If you want something threaded with irons, be prepared to build it yourself off another model and buy the stock separately. I don't know why Ruger does it but a lot of models that would be nice with irons and a threaded barrel just aren't available unless you want either irons or a threaded barrel in that model, not both. Frustratingly, I don't see any threaded barrels that would be good for converting a Mannlicher into threaded as they have an 18.5" barrel just like the threaded models. I ended up putting together what is very close to a model 31184 (under "Tactical") with a silencer and 18.5" barrel and I love it for hunting. The sporter will get my older silencer thrown on it probably along with a nice scope when I get the time.Also I just noticed the 31184 has a 16.12" (wtf?) barrel meaning I could've gone shorter. That's going to bug the shit out of me, fugggg.
>>61996692https://palmettostatearmory.com/forum/t/new-suppressor-ready-barrel-for-10-22/12539This guy made one
>>61996607So 4cpr? It pretty much still is give or take 0.x cents/rd. It's within $1-2 of $20 per 500 before shipping. Find a place with free or low shipping and order enough for free shipping and you're pretty much getting that yet. I just got a couple thousand rounds for less than $21/500 (plus shipping and tax on top of that). Though I assume you mean in store; I miss that shit too. We're at a pretty low point considering the past few years though.https://ammoseek.com/ammo/22lrhttps://southerndefense.com/ammo-prices/22-lr/
>>61996739Not the stock I'd choose for a mannlicher 10/22 but it seems it was just as easy as a little chisel and file work like I thought. Based mannlicher owner. Also weird; I don't think I've ever been on the PSA forums.
>>61996745Back when mosin nuggets were still 70 bucksSigh
>>61996770Tbh I didn't know they had a forum. I'd be worried about concentricity issues with it so close to the fsp. I'd also be scared nuking the stock.
>>61996784You'll be able to see concentricity issues long before you even get to firing. Ruger makes models like the 31113 with the FSB next to the threads. The dovetailed front sight should not overhang the flat behind the threads. You will be able to feel it with your thumbnail if it does. In which case, Ruger gets it back for work or you pop the sight off with a punch on a workbench, work on the sight with a file and some sandpaper, and pop it back on. Ruger did screw that up on my 2021/2022 10/22 (the time of garbage covid QC every company seemed to have gone through) but I noticed it far before I had issues. It gave me several signs something was up like not grouping for well, grouping in an area that required a strange amount of adjustment on my scope that had already been adjusted (IIRC I ran out of adjustment on a quality scope that wasn't made in China), noticeable cant of the silencer to the point you could see a gap if you looked at it side on under the end of the front sight, and a scratch on my silencer from the corner of the front sight overhanging. Don't worry about concentricity of threads or straightness of the flat behind the threads as all threaded models need both of those already. Just look at the front sight's front edge and you'll be able to see if it overhangs or not. I actually ended up sanding my front sight so it just barely sits behind the flat behind the threads by about 0.3-0.5mm, eyeballed. No baffle strikes from the earlier canting either. Just skimmed I guess. My other threaded 10/22 needs an adapter and I haven't been able to use that yet but from inspection it appears to be fine as-is. I'll be buying a straightness/concentricity gauge rod to check.2021/2022 on the right, earlier on the left. I believe, since the thread protector is on the end of the barrel, I didn't get my silencer at that point yet. Or maybe I took the silencer off for cleaning to take that pic? I forget.t. owner of two iron sighted threaded 10/22s
>>61996863Cheers.I also don't like the look of the barrel going beyond the stock on a mannlicher, but with a can it's so sexy.
>>61996551>>61996692This>>61996577They were still making the Rav-22 until last year when they changed the website to say this so I dunno if they still are but it seems like not.http://www.featherusa.com/rav-22-1.htmlI like it! It's insanely lightweight and impressively reliable considering the straight mags and cheap build quality
>>61996881How is it compared to a 10/22?
>>61996784If you do end up having to shave the front sight's front edge at all, take it off the rifle and go slow. I have a gap just about big enough for a piece of 4-6 sheets of paper to slide through. Could've used wipe on bluing but I just have some black nail polish or black oil marker on there temporarily hence the extra clearance. It's easy, though takes about 30-60 minutes of work. Not that it excuses Ruger's QC, though I certainly never emailed them about it to complain and get it fixed either as I needed it right then and now for hunting so I just used it without a front sight since I hunt with a scope. And I've never heard anyone else have my issue either so I have to wonder if I just got a lemon.
>>61996607life comes at ya fast
>>61996897It's a lot lighter and smaller unless you count a 10/22 Takedown, but the stock, grip and trigger feel VERY cheap and wobbly mostly due to the plastic lower receiver. Also the mag release feels like it's going to break every time I push it. I haven't shot it for accuracy but it's gongworthy.From what I gather they have a poor reputation for reliability.
>>61996906>CTDNever ever.
Their reputation is so in the garbage a couple years back some random dude in the Walmart gun aisle randomly asked me if I ever heard of CTD and said to stay far away from them. I don't think I've ever heard of another company where a stranger came up to me just to tell me never to buy from them when neither of us had talked about anything more than online prices and ammo availability lol.
>>61996935>>61996926>>61996923Are they shipping to mag ban states no fucks given style at these prices?
>>61997005No lol and I think that was 2013 panic buying. IIRC pretty much no one else gouged anywhere near that extreme other than CTD. And they cancelled orders to raise prices. And IIRC did it again in 2019/2020, as well as the floor sweepings baggies of 30cpr mixed 22lr. So fuck CTD.
>>61997005Nope they were purely scalping. Even boomers on forums listing batches of .22 boxes they camped in line for on Thursday delivery morning weren't this high
>>61996935>$59.97What a bargain!
>>61996903Oh I mean the barrel sticking out unsuppressed.
>>61994891post em>>61995048noice, what did you pay per round?
>>61950972>22 LR THREAD>22 shortshuehuehueAnyways, Ruger Super Wrangler, yes or no?
>>61998759the grips were supposed to have "same day shipping" but haven't shipped yet
>>61996918I figure the reliability would suck after a few posts I saw. Not too surprised it's mega cheap feeling either. Everytime I see a feather gun it looks ghetto.
>>62000236They seem to be unreliable in general, but mine's been stellar in that regard. Even suppressed! It is an old one though
>>61996923>>61997005They're still a bunch of retards. I know this is the rimfire thread, but they wouldn't even send me an AR-15 lower parts kit (totally unregulated even in this retarded cuck state).
I'm starting to feel like god didn't intend 22lr to be double stacked
>>61999164Yes, assuming you can tolerate the indignity of a 6-round cylinder
>>62002122Bwo? It barely works single stacked!
>>62002983It seems that there is not a single magazine for any gun on the market that uses normal simple double stack 22lr magazines (the keltec is more complicated with additional divider etc)Especially not double stack single feed magazines.Maybe there is a reason for that...
>>61999164Yes. I have one and it's great. Love how it handles.
What's the most accurate .22lr that will be consistently subsonic in a 16" suppressed rifle? new to this world
>>62006913Eley, 40gn Tenex.They'll even give you 5000 rounds free if you can bring them a batch of more accurate 22lr.https://www.eleyammunition.com/wp-content/uploads/USA-brochure-LR.pdf
Marlin model 60 jammed so much today I gave up on it. Used federal champion bulk.
>>62008178i've had nothing but problems with federal in basically every semi i own. the all too inevitable solution: switch to CCI minimags.
>>62008193Mostly ran fine in my pistol. May have to try mini mags next.Honestly just want to get a 10/22.
>>62008178Seconding Federal 40gr being meh. Stovepipes. My MK II hates it too.
anyone have experience with hux flow? ya think its worth getting on 22 or 9
After so many failed attempts I was almost ready to give up but finally I've got a functional 10 round double stack single feed (almost) flush magazine for the Tikka T1xIt's still not perfect, you have to cycle the bolt fast so they don't nose dive but it's getting there. After I get this working well it's time for 15 and 20 rounders.
>>62008408>10/22Here's one for $250 with wood stock. No threaded barrel but still nice. If you want a plastic stock you can go cheaper.https://gun.deals/product/ruger-1022-carbine-rimfire-rifle-26399Plastic stock plus threaded barrel and irons just under $300.

bunp
>>62010073That’s really cool anon. My least favourite thing about my friends T1x is the needlessly bulky magazines so you might as well fill the space with more bullets.
>>62015592Yeah for sure, I wonder if Tikka ever actually tried to make double stack 22lr work or if they just took a look at the market and saw nobody doing it and decided to go with the safer option.Funny enough even their "safe" option has real funky cartridge stacking instead of pure single stack, pic related uses factory mag dimensions and admittedly they do work well.
>>62010073I couldn't help myself I went straight for the 20 rounder next hahaIt's a bit bigger than a factory 10 rounder but tiny compared to single stack 15 round bananas like ruger 10/22 mags
>>62014605Smol gun, big bun.
>>62014605He armed
>>61950972I hate federal automatch so much it's unreal.
>>62019924Why
>>62020310It's underpowered and won't cycle my 10/22. Walmart in my area only has automatch instead of the 550rd bulk packs (that do cycle my 10/22). It's basically only good in a revolver or bolt action.
>>61960727it looks like a 22lr 1911 mag
>>61962343look up romeo 5 or holosun on ebay and buy a used one, you can get em for like $70 a pop on there
>>61996552i use earplugs to plug barrels
>>61950972so compared to centerline, how much less reliable is .22, assuming it's decent quality?
>>61950972>grandpa had a remington 512 with iron sights>grandma is probably just going to let it rust to pieces or it'll be scrapped when she passes
>>61951826jam
>>62020410Champion? That's underpowered and can't cycle my marlin model 60 properly lol
>>62020605>dumbass won't ask grandma for it or worst case offer to buy it off her
>>62020556There's a LOT of leeway in that question and it's hard to answer. There's no fine line describing "decent" for one. There are finicky guns, there are finicky mags, spring rates, primer hardness, limpwristing, lemons. But I'll boil it down to the following generalized statements based on observation with all other things being equalDecent quality .22 (let's call that anything from Aguila up through CCI Minimags but excluding most Winchester and some Federal) feeding/extraction/ignition/primer failures occur about 10 times more often than in decent quality centerfire (let's call that anything from Magtech through Federal Red Rockets).Bad quality rimfire (let's call that anything from Armscor "bolt action only" through Remington Golden Shitter and including some Federal) has probably about 50 times more feeding/extraction/ignition/primer failures compared to bad quality centerfire, which tends to not have very many more failures than midgrade centerfire ammo. Bad centerfire only gets so bad (other than squibs which go from virtually zero to rare), but bad rimfire gets REALLY bad, mostly because of the primers.But a lot of it is gun/mag dependent and therefore subjective.
Hey 22 guys. For some reason my mind is set on a Pre 17 S&W for next 22 fix. Good choice or no?
>>62020556Define "decent quality".No, seriously, you need to define that if you want a specific answer and not something generalized. Because the quality of 22lr ammo is all over the place, from the absolute shittiest shit (Remington Thunderbolts) to the best of the best competition/olympic shooters' choice (Eley Tenex).Also tell us what centerfire ammo you'd like the 22lr compared to; as centerfire ammo also has a range of reliability it falls into; from cheapass mass produced remanufactured plinking/range ammo, to match grade and high end self defense loads.I have shot tens of thousands of rounds of CCI SV 40gn LRN out of my 22lr rifles. (Caveat, my rifles are all manual actions, mostly single shots). And in all of those rounds, I've had fewer FTF's than with a single 500 round case of Winchester white box 9mm.Is 22lr reliable enough to trust your life to? IMO, only in a revolver or a DA/SA semi-auto pistol.
>>62020556I tend to just stick with CCI Minimag 40gr CPRN for my 10/22 and MK pistols. It feeds well in all my .22 semi autos with a FTF or FTE maybe once every 3 or 5 mags out of my BX-25s with the binary.
>>62021480My mistake for assuming people here would be intelligent enough to deduce that was the first thing I did. I gave too much credit.
>>62025437No, your mistake for assuming people wouldn't default to assuming you're a retard on a board full of retards.
>>62025608I'd call you a retard, but retard implies you're actually going somewhere.
>>62008178My marlin won't run anything federal.My other 22 have problems with it also.Seems like federal brass swells more and hangs in the chamber. It's shitty stuff.
>>62020556it's the least reliable piece of shit you'll ever have to deal with. every gun runs with a different brand of ammo, the cheap to shoot thing is just a meme honestly.
>>61983366the pink piece is just part of the printed lower
>>62021531>primer issues/voidsThat is, unless your gun has TWO FIRING PINS
>>62021531Or you are French, say fuck it, make it open bolt, and go full>A FUCKING WEDGE
>>62021531Oh and BoreBuddy makes a crescent shape pin. Never seen that one before, kinda neat. Maybe a little smarter than>a fucking wedgeor putting two (or more) firing pins in your gun. Depends how big a void could theoretically commonly get in good quality ammo.

>>62010073
Let's say I have a 9mm pistol with a .22 upper on it that and I exclusively shoot .22 out of it. Are there any practical advantages that a dedicated .22 pistol would have over the former?
>>62028951I mean a dedicated .22 pistol would potentially be smaller, but other than that not really. It's not like with an AR where the drop-in CMMG kits are using the original barrel.
A favorite 22 rifle of mine.I need to lay out my 22 collection sometime. I have a lot that I have not taken a photo of yet. [spoiler] I need to stop buying 22 firearms. someone help me, I have a problem. [/spoiler]
>>62029909You do not have a problem. You are blessed with the trait of loving 22s.How many do you have?
>>61955426>The living rent free in your head>Tfw shoot 22lr all the time I just only shoot super colibris in long barrel guns since they're essentially suppressed Morning stranger! Nice day for fishing innit?
>>61983280Those aren't that quiet as they have powder to cycle semi autos. It's basically a modern black powder equivalent load that'll cycle. Super colibris are what you want if sound is the number one priority. You literally don't need a suppressor with a rifle length barrel.
>>61950972is there a point to buying a modern bolt-action .22
>>62031910yeah
>>62032105are these really cheap?
>>62032115Cost wise they seem to range from $150-300 on Fuddbroker. Mags look a bit pricy at about $40 each. As far as quality goes I couldn't say, I've never seen one in person yet
>>62031748You are right, I shot some today! With a suppressor there was barely a difference between those and CCI SV, but I noticed a pretty big difference in recoil. Such as it is lolWithout a suppressor though there was a bigger difference that I found surprising. Also surprising is that it actually works in semi autos! You'd think something with 35% less velocity would make a difference but seemingly not! Even the Ounce ate it without a problem, that thing seems to be incredibly tolerant of ammo, on par or maybe even better than my TX22.I wanted the 710 FPS stuff but I couldn't find it cheap, it's like twice the price of the 835 FPS Quiet. Which is laaaaaame
>>62033534>710 FPS stuffWalmart. But sometimes it's shorts only which is annoying. Can't remember the price but no doubt it's changed since last time and it depends on location of the store as well.
>>62033539>WalmartCan they beat 8.8cpr? Welpmart is kind of far and I'm about to buy some on the world wide internet
>>62033711I don't think they can beat $8.80/100, or if they can, not by much. Been a while since I went and looked but they were more like $10-12/100 IIRC. Been a while though.
>>62033534Don't show me pictures like that Burt, my OCD can't handle it.
>>62033539Your Walmarts still carry ammo? No Walmart in my city has anything remotely related to hunting or fishing, no ammo, no archery, no fishing licenses, the whole outdoors section is a shelf with some flashlights, carabiners, and lantern mantles. When I was in college we'd go to Walmart to pick up 550rd boxes of Federal for $8, good ol' days, etc.
>>62034369Yes and several of them feel ghetto enough that I'm surprised they do. I was once in one like 50 miles away and was floored that they had RIFLES in stock.
>>62034369move away from areas with blacks. mine still sells shotguns and stocks .22, .308, 12 gauge, and .242
>>62031201Well lets see, i currently have:>stevens marksman (early version, 1910s?)>ruger 10/22 in m1 carbine stock (vintage)>savage click clack rifle>romanian m1969>marlin 39 mountie limited >browning bl-22 grade 2 >taurus 62 (winchester 62 clone)>navy arms (uberti) 1873 winchester carbine >henry classic carbine>ruger bearcat>ruger wrangler birdshead>ruger mk2 target>charter arms pathfinder gen 1>armi jager super dakota>hawes western marshall>hi standard sentinel>reck (remington clone) derringer (junk, just for goofing around)I plan on buying a single six when I find the exact one that I want, even though i really shouldnt. I am always looking around and buying/trading. Hell, i should get a bumper sticker that says "I brake for vintage 22lr firearms"I collect other older style guns too, but i just think that 22s are so much fun.
>>62035919This is fine.
>>62035919>>ruger 10/22 in m1 carbine stock (vintage)>>romanian m1969how do you like these two overall? I've got a 10/22 underfolder with a binary that I love and these two are next on my list. I've also just found pic related which is activating my almonds
>>62036109NTA but ooh, didn't even know that was a thing and I knew about the regular M1 (carbine) stock for the 10/22. Looks like a even more retro option than the B-TM for a folding stock 10/22. Wonder how stable it is. Pic rel (not my gun in pic) is really stable, though after a year of hunting I put a shim on the top part of the locking piece the tube is connected to. Just used a piece of Walmart isopropyl alcohol bottle super glued to it and cut so the edge tapers so the detent can get over it. Was probably loose since I got it and never noticed. Probably didn't affect anything but it bugged me too much not to tinker lol.
>>62036145>B-TMI looked at those B-TM stocks real hard before doing my build and they look nice. Pic related is also not mine but similar. I went with the underfolder since it works with the takedown model. I also put a choat polymer M1 style heatshield over the barrel. I had to dremel about an inch off the rear end of it so it works with the takedown barrel but it fits tight. I literally just found the M1A1 folding stock online tonight so I've never seen one in person and haven't found any reviews yet. They're made by Sarco apparently.
>>62036178The B-TM also works with TD (and there's a bull barrel version). A little late now but pic related.>choate M1 style heatshieldMight want to also look into the Samson one. Requires you to drift out your rear sight though as it uses it for a dovetail piece that clamps the heatshield in place with a screw.>made by sarcoSarco? That's weird. Haven't seen them make/contract gun stuff any time recently.
>>62036317Oh nice I didn't realize there was takedown option>look into the Samson onethose looked good as well, but I wanted to keep the stock iron sights (I've since replaced them with HIVIZ fiber optics). I had concerns about the sights holding zero over time and wanted to have them both on the barrel assembly >>62036317>Sarco?idk if they make it themselves, but they sell it:https://www.sarcoinc.com/m1a1-folding-stock-for-ruger-10-22/
>>62036109The 10/22 is a nice fun plinking gun. The pouch holds the 10 round rotary mags pretty well. The problem that I have with it is that its extremely picky with ammo. I dont like guns that you have to buy extremely specific ammo for to have them run it reliably. This thing jams a lot on any sort of bulk ammo. I may tear it down and remove the oil because i have heard that they like to run dry. Maybe some graphite lubricant would be better
>>62036109>>62037566Now, as for the romanian m1969, I really like it. Super accurate and it has some flip up sights for different distances. Magazines are a little expensive and hard to come by though. I really want to find the mythical 10 round magazine. Dont even try to mount a scope on it because the dovetail isnt actually a dovetail, its squared off. You would have to modify it. Its pretty good if you like iron sights because a lot of modern boltys dont come with them anymore. This one gets a lot of use for varmints. I cycle through different guns when I go for chores around the property. This one is good for shitty weather because its not a big deal if it gets wet or cold. It is really simple, and takes down easy. No issues with rust yet either.
>>62037566Wipe it clean, a drop, not any more, a drop, it'll spread, of light oil on wearing surfaces. And it should be good. Running dry is just something people who over oil guns say.t engineer
>>62036145>>62036178>>62036317Hell yeah, B-TM posting.My SBR'd Brownell's BRN-22R in the B-TM stock with a suppressor is one of my favorites.I almost want assemble another one, but with a stainless stock/barrel and clear coated aluminum receiver.But I also want to do another SBR in one of the Enoch chassis.10/22 SBRs > AR22 SBRs, fight me
Anyone have any experience with the slip on muzzle adapters for 10/22's?
>>62036109would you buy a m1 chambered in .22?
>>61950972what kind of oil do you use for your stocks?
>>62041279No, I'd prefer a 10/22 that looks like an M1 since they've got more aftermarket shit for me to spend money on. Mainly a binary trigger. I know Chiappa makes a .22lr M1 clone and few other companies did in the past, but I'd prefer to share mag compatibility with the 10/22 I already have. Now some of the items in pic related would be neat
>>62041349they should make a stoner 63 in .22 lr for shits and giggles
10/22 or a Winchester model 63
>>62041330I use murphys oil soap to clean them. I dont know about you guys but it works on my machine.

>>62040976Bump
And that's a twenty rounder for the Tikka.These things are starting to function pretty well despite being double stack and 3D printed.
new bread?
>>61951826Not a 1911 pattern 22lr. Get a Browing 1911-22 instead.
>>62041330>>62041970I think he means to touch up scratches. In which case, boiled linseed oil.>>62047221Ever think of selling through Moka's Raifus or whatever like Lubeanon does?
>>62038118Fug how well does it work? What's the barrel length? How quiet? Hearing safe with 38gr supers? Considering doing pretty much exactly that to my gun.
>>62051069I'd love to get some returns for the hours I've put in.I've got a website where I'll sell them myself when the design is finalized but I do indeed need an FFL to import the mags into the US as I'm based in Europe myself. Would you recommend contacting them? Where do people generally buy 22lr stuff in the US?
Trying to get ready for an Appleseed. I can knock over cans but never shot for points. BX trigger and maybe a cheek riser, I should be set.
>>62051159
>>62051125>but I do indeed need an FFL to import the mags into the US as I'm based in Europe myself. Would you recommend contacting them?I've never sold anything through Moka but from my knowledge it's the only site I know of that imports Euro stuff to the US market at a somewhat small scale. IIRC they do the German G3 triggers possibly with LubeAnon's help as well.>Where do people generally buy 22lr stuff in the US?That's hard to answer anon lol. Pretty much any chain gun store, but I don't think you're going to get them to stock a specialty 3D printed magazine, hence me recommending you sell it through Moka or another small online store. I don't personally have a Tikka but it's always nice to have the option for bigger mags as well as a source for aftermarket mags. Especially mags that feed well.
>>62051479Yeah I mean accountability is always an issue, the importer has to trust the product enough to put it up for sale and take responsibility. Might be especially difficult on a 3D printed part. It would help if they were a small scale business and they had a Tikka themselves so they could try out the mag to see if it actually works.
>>62051080Works extremely well! I had a Ruger 18.5" barrel cut down/threaded to 10.75" (probably could have gotten away with 10.5"). I used a stock 10/22 barrel since I needed the rear sight dovetail for the Samson "heat shield" on top of the barrel.It's very quiet with the Ruger Silent SR suppressor. I only shoot CCI Standards out of it, definitely hearing safe. I'm sure supers/hv would give a bit more of a crack.Do it!
>>62051159Stable positions and bone support. Stretch your legs beforehand so you can get your fat ass in and out of a good sitting position. Consistent cheek weld. Don't snatch the trigger. Breath control is a meme, don't think about it.Use one kind of ammo and sight in for 25 yards ahead of time. Bring a bunch of magazines.
