TulsaGeoff Posted February 24, 2014 Author Posted February 24, 2014 I would look for a way to convert a Ruger 10/22 to a m1 carbine. I see the stock sets are available but I don't know what else would be needed. The Rugers are great 22's. Quote

I see the stock sets are available but I don't know what else would be needed. The Rugers are great 22's. I did as you said, and there is a stock set for around $100! I'll look into it more, thanks for the help! Quote

The 10/22 has the most accessories out of any other gun except the AR-15. A huge plus to consider when looking at guns. You can build one completely using aftermarket parts. 1 Quote
Kali- Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Another nice .22L is the Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22. It's a .22L in the AR-15 platform. There are quite a few other companies that have similar models, but without the normal functions of an AR-15 like the Smith & Wesson's has. They also don't jam like many of the others do. Average price is around $500. I've seen them in black, regular camo, and hot pink camo. My daughter wants the hot pink camo one. Check it out here: this video cracks me up Quote

A_Snake Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 I shoot the heck out of .22's. I have 4 rifles and 4 pistols in .22 caliber rim fire. Every time we shoot the steels we always bring the .22 pistols for extra fun. The ammo is still overpriced. The gun show this past weekend they were selling the 500 round boxes for $65.00. Luckily I still have a few thousand rounds to play with. I am hoping the ammo comes back down. Quote

Anything over 6.5 cents a round is more than Im going to spend even though this is something i look forward to every month. But you can sign up for notifications on slickguns,net for whenever you can get cheaper. Since im by a PC all day, I can get alright priced ammo every once in awhile. 1 Quote
Kali- Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Wow, TulsaGeoff, that is a great price for the S&W AR15-22. Unfortunately my daughter was sitting next to me when I opened the forums and now.... I have to come up with a different excuse for not getting one yet... Thanks Quote
Kali- Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 As a Firearms Instructor I teach all skill levels from people who have never even picked up a gun to Law Enforcement and Military tactical pistol and tactical rifle. I find that starting a person out with a .22L helps to get them used to practicing all the fundamentals of firing a gun with the added kick, although very minimal, and the bang of a gun going off. Both of which are unnerving to beginners who aren't used to it. A nice .22L pistol for beginners is the Ruger SR22. It has all the functions of full sized center fire handguns, without the kick and cost. Quote
Shawn~1988 Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) i only have few right now just got gun cabinet so i only have a 9MM S&W and a 30. 06 savage i had the rifle since i was 17 i love that gun and got the 9 few years ago i will have to post some pics Edited March 4, 2014 by Shawn~1988 Quote
