Microgunner

I own a 597 VTR and it's a pretty good rifle but the SR-22 is better. I only bought the VTR because I was bored and wanted something new to play with. Now, don't get me wrong, the 597 VTR is a very accurate rifle, as good as if not better than the Ruger, but the Ruger just has so much going for it in the form of aftermarket support.

Man, I've read many a horror story about Richards Micro Fit Stocks. They come partially inletted so they can be professionally fitted by the end user. This requires a serious set of skills, which you may possess being a woodworker. Many a folk have butchered theirs up.

A quick Google search revealed that Revolution and Fajen both offer left hand 10/22 target stocks.

Hi CWW. I'm an FFL dealer and just went to Ellett Brothers Wholesale website, with whom we have an account, and they have (40) 15-22P pistols in stock. My order price from them is $339.00 + $12.45 shipping = $351.45 cost to us. Our 15% markup would bring our selling price to $404.17. You should be able to find them in this price range anywhere.

I couldn't find any info on their website either so I called them. They're all right hand only except for the Classic which is anbidextrous. I guess they think south paws shouldn't own firearms.

Welcome bgc and sorry to hear of your wife's illness.

Their non-thumbhole 3 position stocks are not ambidextrous. You must specify your preference. I follow the instructions on the box for bedding. On 10/22s you'll need to bed about the first 1-2 inches of the barrel to avoid barrel droop due to the barrel being a clamp mount. Old 10/22s and Volquartsens have screw in barrels but it's still advised to bed the first inch or so of the barrel due to the 10/22 having only one action screw. This is assuming you'll be floating the barrel. I also pillar bed my stocks to avoid stock compression and maintain proper action screw torque. This may sound complicated but it's really very easy and fun. Just take your time.

I've purchased two of the B&C stocks and both were properly molded, were easy to bed and fit perfectly.

I'm particularly fond of the Bell & Carlson Anschutz style 3 position stocks. I believe they're offered in a lefty version.

Received my P380 back from Kahr Monday. Note said "replaced striker, polished feed ramp, lubed, test fired, good". I tried it out. Ran slicker than owl poop.

Glad to make your acquaintance.

The ledgendary 10/22 is always a good choice. No need to worry if this is the right one, you can, and will buy more later. ;D

Well all right! We'll require photos.

My M22 came with two recoil springs of different rates. One or the other usually has been able to make the pistol run reliably.

I'd bet you're right. At one time the 1911 was looked down upon. I remember a freind of mine's father buying two WWII surplus, arsenal reburbished, Remington 1911-A1s for $17.50 each in about 1965. Wow, times have changed.

I've heard good and bad about the Neos, mostly good. Early ones had some teething problems. The Buckmark has been around for a long time in one form or another and has proven itself many times over. I prefer the Buckmark, if for no other reason, for it's grip angle. My Buckmark bull barreled target pistol is a sweet shooter.

We're 9" above normal here in Florida.

I see SIG is now listing a 1911-22lr in black for $321.99 (wholesale) and green for $329.99 (wholesale). No photos were available. Don't know if this new pistol has been mentioned here yet.

I like it.

Glad you've joined up.

I'm just the pusher, you're the addict. ;D

Damn, you an army of one.

Can't hurt to make an offer.

Bill Ruger is rolling over in his grave, but hey, adapt or die.

Welcome to T22 and congratulations on your new HK.
