Ruger 10/22

[DougSeward]

I also have a couple Mosin-Nagants. My Finnish model is the best shooter, with a longer barrel and good fit/finish. I also have a "carbine" model with a flip out bayonet (M44). It looks cool, but it is a lousy shooter. I was told that it was made in China. I only fired one shot from it, and the muzzle blast was so intense, that everyone at the range looked over to see what I was shooting. The muzzle flash was bigger than a basketball. I figured it was better suited as a wall hanger.

I also picked up a 10/22 Heavy BBL in Stainless with synthetic stock a few years ago to teach my son to shoot. He was not interested, so sadly, it remains unfired. -Doug

I don't know about china, but look on top of the recivier and there should be a mark of some kind, it'll indicate the arsenal where it was made. To my knowledge china never made MN, but I've been wrong plenty of times. I know what you mean about the fireball, I've got an AK54, it's a semi auto AK style rifle in 7.62x54R, with a 16" barrel. Looks awsome at night. I also have a m38. it's the same size as the M44 with out the bayonet, it's the best shooter of the bunch, even with a little muzzel flash.

Sam, if you haven't found them yet Butler creek makes a clip reloader that loads the 25 rd clip in about 45 seconds. Very worth the money.

Hey Sam here check this out.....

That's a neat setup you got there, but with a non-magnified optic, I'd suggest mounting it just behind the vertical fore grip to really appreciate the benefits of a reflex sight.

Increased field of view along with faster target pick up will be a couple of things you'll notice right off the bat.

Better balance is another.

Safe shootin' and always have fun,
