View Full Version : What is your 22 "fun gun"?

22lr is a great round cheap and fun!
What 22 do you have the most fun with?
For me it would be my 10/22 that I just gave to my cousin. I really enjoyed teaching him how to shoot with it.
Since that is now gone, my choice would be my Kel Tec PLR-22.
I can spend hours shooting this thing. She eats through any thing, and is pretty damn accurate.
What is yours? Is it just fun, or more sentimental?

I have a Ruger Mark II Target Competition 6 7/8" barrel, Sig 522, Glock Advantage Arms 22 conversion, Sig P220 22 conversion and Walther P22.
The Mark II and 522 are, definitely, the most fun. These are extremely accurate.
CZ Kadet. Same MO as my carry guns, so I'm "training" as well as having fun every time I shoot it.

It has to be my Advantage Arms conversion for my G20SF, I love that thing! I just with they made a flush fitting hi-cap magazine.
I want to get a Ruger SR-22 pistol in the not-too-distant future, I have high hopes for it!
My Taurus model 94 9 shot revolver with 4 inch barrel. I love this revolver, it is a great training tool.
I wanted so badly for this gun to work for me! (I had the 5" barrel model)
Its the perfect size and weight with above average round capacity. I got a dud though, very inaccurate, super crappy trigger in both DA and SA (even after some polishing and a lighter trigger return spring).
It had a huge cylinder-forcing cone gap and the timing was always off, it spit lead out of the sides of the gun.
it went back to Taurus 3 times, and though they paid shipping and delivered fast service they never got it fixed compleatly. I sold it to a buddy, he seems to like it just fine :dunno:

Right now it's my Ruger MKIII Target. It used to be my 10/22 (which it is still a fun gun.) If and or when I add another .22 the MKIII might get replaced (I'm thinking a Henry H001T.) :wavey:
Beretta 87T, Hammerli xesse, Sig522, CZ PO1 Kadet conversion- fun guns to shoot.
I probably have the most fun with my Henry lever action. I watch a couple reruns of the Rifleman and then head down to the range.

I picked up this almost new Marlin 39-A a few weeks ago for $400. I bought it at a gunshow from a guy walking around. It was made in '61. I got it home, took it apart and noticed that the firing pin was broken in half. Probably why he sold it. He didn't bother to tell me it didn't function and probably got a good laugh at my expense. I ordered a new one for $23 and now it functions perfectly. This is a neat little rifle.

Mine is my Henry 16" loop lever .22lr I just picked up "used" with only a half a box of rounds put through it. I got it for $200.00
I have been wanting a Henry .22 for a few years but just didn't want to spend the money. I stopped in to the shop to browse and the used Henry was on the rack as used and marked down. I've known the guys at the shop for years and they told me a customer bought it, had it for a week and brought it back to trade on a muzzleloader saying he didn't like the way it shot....he also brought in the box of rounds he purchased with it and it was about half full.
I asked the best price they could do.....they said $200......I said sold. Finally got the Henry I've been thinking about and didn't feel all that guilty for that price. I've put a few hundred rounds through it in the last few weeks and it is a fantastic little rifle. Accurate, reliable and fun.

I need to take a photo of it to post , but I cleaned out the insides of a HK 636 airsoft gun and fixed a Mossberg Plinkster 702 inside using the existing frame and some epoxy to mount the receiver. It looks like the HK 636 and is a hoot to shoot. I need to pick up a 25 round magazine when I can find one and figure out a way to mount optics on it. You won't see another like it.
Just went to the range today and shot over 500 rounds through my 22s. I have a Marlin model 795 semiauto, CZ 452 left handed bolt action and a Colt/Walther AR22. The Marlin is the second gun I ever purchased so there is some sentimental attachment there but the Colt AR is the most fun to shoot.

Reminton subsonic on the squirrel, i could seriously have had a cup of coffee while waiting for the bullet to get there i think but they are super accurate from the gun and CCI velocitors on the coyote, not quite as accurate as the subsonics but they hit hard. Honorable mention goes to the federal american eagle 38gr HPs. My gun loves em and they hit much harder than the paper ballistics claim (plus they are cheap!). I would take either of the same shots with those as well.

lately I've been jonesing for the Henry Golden Boy and the S&W M15-22. also one of the good quality double action revolvers. All would be fun in their own right.

My Ruger 10/22 stainless with red dot is my fun rifle.
My new stainless 10/22 with mannlicher stock and scope will be here this week. Really looking forward to playing with it after I do the normal Volquartsen changes.

I have two... first is my new favorite .22LR the Ruger 10/22 takedown, second is my Sig Sauer 1911 Stainless with the Kimber Rimfire Target .22LR conversion on it. Both are more accurate than I am and very fun to shoot... especially if I run CCI Mini Mags or CCI AR Tactical ammo through them.
I've found that the CCI AR Tactical gives very good accuracy and is loaded a bit hotter than most high velocity rounds. In the Kimber Rimfire Conversion the AR Tactical gives the pistol a bit of recoil which makes shooting it very enjoyable.

What stock is that? I like the way it looks!:thumbsup:
It's the archangel 556 stock, and honestly, it's a pita. It's comfortable and light, though. However, the real pain comes when it's time to clean it. To remove the trigger assy, you have to pull the reciever from the stock, and in order to do that, you have to remove the top rail from the stock. In order to do that, you have to pull the scope. Which means I have to re-establish my zero every time I clean it, so I just give it a good enough every so often, and only break it down when it's real bad.

Been thinking about getting an ISSC 22lr....does anyone have any comments.?
For fun 22's I have my Ruger SR22 and My Ruger Single Six. The SR22 I usually carry around the woods and plink at cans and such. The Single Six has a slightly bigger bore for 22mag so its not the most accurate with 22LR so I also just use that for general plinking.
For more serious target shooting I use my MKIII and my marlin model 60 rifle.

The one I had ran fine, but was not as accurate in my hands as some of my other 22LR's. It does not feel as much like a Glock as you would think. Personally, I would go with a Ruger or Buckmark for a 22 pistol.

Called all around Middle Tennessee looking for a shop that had the Ruger SR22's in stock. Seems like the only place that had it was about 2 hours drive from me. Well... needless to say, I made the trip and bought it today. $359 NIB. What sucks is I can't get to the range for about a week and a half. :crying:

As much as I dislike 10/22's, I have to admit that I like mine the most out of all the .22lr rifles I owned. It might be because of the money and work I put into it, or that I generally prefer traditional stock rifles over pistol grip ones.

I have several .22 Fun Guns.
First and foremost is my Ruger MKII Stainless 5 1/2" Bull Barrel. This Ruger was bought new by my late brother and after his passing I purchased it from my Sister in Law. Since it was a special gun to me I decided to make it more special. I had it drilled & tapped in the same hole pattern as the Ruger MKIII's. I also added the following:
Volquartsen Custom Target Sear
Volquartsen Custom Extended Bolt Release
Clark Custom Guns Steel Ruger Trigger
Clark Custom Guns Ruger Grips
On Targer Guns Blast Shield
Weigand Scope Base
Bushnell Trophy Red / Green Multi Reticle Electronic Sight
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v112/LarryinSD/ModifiedClarkGriponRugerMKII.jpg
Next up would be a Ruger 10/22 that I bought from a buddy of mine. When I bought it it had been sitting in a barn for a couple years. Yes it took quite a bit of scubbing and cleaning. The first modification was to have the Factory Carbine Barrel Shortened to 17" (cutting off the front sight in the process). I then had the diameter of the barrel immediately in front of the V Block Dovetail in the Barrel turned down so I could slip a Green Mountain Non Vented Barrel Shroud over the Barrel. I did a trigger job on this Ruger myself and had the headspace set on the bolt, the firing pin pinned and chamfered / radiused the rear bottom face of the bolt. I then set it in a ProMag Archangel 556 Stock which I also modified by adapting a DPMS Carbon Fiber Free Float Tube to the Archangel and I replaced the Archangel Buttstock with a MagPul CTR 6 Position Collapsable Buttstock.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v112/LarryinSD/ArchangelRuger1022CarbonFiberFreeFloatTube.jpg
Yet another one is my Custom Ruger Charger. This one has been a work in progress for quite some time now. I actually bought a Ruger Charger and promptly sold the factory Barrel and Stock. I then sent the Receiver, Scope Base and an ALuminum Trigger Housing off to be done in Norrells "Stainless" Moly Resin. I then fitted the receiver with a KIDD 10" Matte Stainless Bull Barrel. I had the headspace set on the bolt, the firing pin pinned and chamfered / radiused the rear bottom face of the bolt. foe the Trigger I sent the Factory Trigger to TT Shooter for one of his Precision Trigger Jobs. I outfitted this with a Burris 3x12x LER Handgun Scope with Fine Plex Reticle and Target Turrets. The stock is a 10/22 Carbine Stock that with the help of my local gunsmith we transformed it into a Charger Handgun Stock with lots of work and modifying the stock so we could attach a T/C Contender Pistol Grip to it.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v112/LarryinSD/RugerCharger8-23-12.jpg
If I want to get serious about printing nice tiny groups with a Handgun the above Custom Ruger Charger gets the nod.
Lastly I would have to say that after my first range session with it my new Advantage Arms Glock 17/22LE .22 LR Conversion Kit for my Glock Model 22 is going to rank right up there with other favorites.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v112/LarryinSD/AdvantageArmsGlockModel22.jpg
There are others also but the above are the ones that get the most use.

Depends on handgun or rifle. I have an old Remington Speedmaster (I think) for my rifle that is amazingly accurate and for handgun I have an old Ruger Mark 1. With a bull barrel. I love them both. My Ruger is in amazing shape. Happen to be a gun show find for cheap and took it home and it's the best .22 handgun I've ever shot.

Just a plain old Ruger 10/22 Carbine with hardwood stock. Nothing special, but it's an awesome gun as-is. I think I want to keep this gun in its current condition with no mods because it's my first .22 and I feel a bit nostalgic about it. I'll probably give it to my son when he's of age and then pick up another one and maybe customize it. I use it just for having fun and I like the idea of pushing it as far as I can without the aid of extra mods. I feel the same way about my Glocks.

I just had my new SR22 to the range friday. I have to agree for the most part. Put 350 rounds through. Ate everything but Federal Lightnings. The Fed lightnings had a few failures to feed & eject. So far it seems to like CCI Mini-Mags the best.

I picked up a 43c yesterday for exactly the same reason. Seemed like a great training aid & I'll never say 'no' to a new gun if I can help it. One of the guys at the shop said I could use a speedloader for a 617... IIRC those are either a 6 or 10 shot cylinder? :impatient:

Picked up a 22LR H&K MP5 SD (Umarex) today, was nearly late for work after losing track of time at the range.
Only complaint I have is the ergonomics, the stock fully extended feels a few inches shy of comfortable, and getting a good sight picture requires mashing my face firmly down into the stock rails.
Given the tacti-toy nature of the rifle, I think I'll go ahead and throw a red dot on it and start looking for goodies to add.

I'm enjoying my Winchester model 75 Target rifle right now. It's a salvaged rifle, and I had to buy plenty of new parts to get it up and running, but now I'm holding 9- and 10- ring at 70 yards with peep sights. And, for 66-yr-old once rebuilt eye, I think that's just fine. I can shoot 1" at 100 yards with 10X scope, but I find the peep sight more challenging and fun.
