<\/p>\nIn continuous production since 1964. Ruger has churned out over 5 million 10\/22 carbines. It is one of the most successful and prolific designs ever created.<\/p>\n
Combining a ultra reliable action and a sure feeding magazine that borrowed from the Savage 99, the 10\/22 transitioned from a “kids gun” to a serious rifle.<\/p>\n
Why should you own one?<\/p>\n
You can do literally almost anything with them.<\/p>\n
Want to build a “tactical” 22 LR rifle? There is enough aftermarket accessories to make it look like a AR, AK, P90, Krinker, Thompson Submachine gun, the list is almost endless.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Want to build a tack driving rifle that is cheap to shoot? Yep, you can do that as well.<\/p>\n
Suppressed for varmint control? Also a yes.<\/p>\n
Hunt small game? I have personally killed untold amounts of squirrels and rabbits with my current iteration of the 10\/22.<\/p>\n
Self defense? Well…I’m not going to advocate for using a rimfire .22LR for self defense. But a .22 rifle is better than a rock or a knife I guess.<\/p>\n
(IF THIS IS YOUR ONLY OPTION… ROCK IT OUT, BUT FEED IT SOME DECENT AMMO)<\/p>\n
SHTF? Yep, I’ll have my current one with it’s folding stock somewhere.<\/p>\n
For an all around, “bang it in the truck or in the closet or the shop” rifle, these are pretty hard to beat.<\/p>\n
The one I currently own and shoot is my 3rd 10\/22. The others were traded or sold off as life happened. I will say I had some issues with the 2nd one I owned. It would not eat “brick ammo”, it was CCI or nothing. So when I got the one I have now, it eats CCI exclusively. Specifically the CCI Velocitor JHPs.<\/p>\n
For 300 odd dollars, the 10\/22 continues to be a bargain. Get one if you don’t have one. You will not regret it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
