What's Your "Weak" Gun?

[Magwa]

we are fat in WMR here in Idaho 12.00 a box but hey it is so fun to shoot what the hell and I think I will get the carbine if I can find one for a decent price..

[edgecrusher]

My HK USC to UMP conversion. It's always up next..... till it's not. The only way it doesn't happen this spring if that LWRC SMG comes out...

22 WMR is so scarce and so rationed around here, I am reluctant to shoot more than one box at a time through mine.

I am the same way about shooting my Ithaca lever action saddle gun in .22WRM. I got it in a trade back in 1981.  I got it and a Hi Standard double 9 in a trade. for my Ruger single six .22 LR.

Is that like converting a Holley Vacuum Secondary to a Double Pumper. I did that before and buying a second unit would have been cheaper.

After some thought I have a 32 yr. old 10-22 with original barrel that still shoots.

Had one of those until my son "borrowed it".

I actually just met a guy (a friend of the family)with a full conversion for sale. Has a bunch of mags too. I thought about you but resisted calling you about it... I know this is the LAST thing on your plate.

Dammit, text for info inbound

This TALO edition GP100 is what got me starting this thread.  Having five before isn't enough, when you realize this one has an unfluted cylinder.

Biggest regret was selling my Ruger "Security six" in .357 6" barrel. Damn good pistol.

[mrmackc]

I still have my .357 Security Six that I traded for in 1980:

That's part of what sold me on Ruger, my first .357 Magnum, a Security Six.  Had to shoot the hottest loads at the time (Remington High Velocity 125gr SJHP), discovered the forcing cone on the barrel was cracked.  Sent it back to Ruger, after it had been replaced several years prior by the GP100.  They replaced the barrel, redid the timing, replaced the springs and sent me the aftermarkets back in a baggie, cleaned the pistol, reblued the whole thing.

Didn't charge me a penny.

My old standby from my college days. I traded a MEC 12 ga. reloader for it:

/\/\/\/\ Nice Mack!

Desperate for a job, my first armed guard gig was worked with a S&W Victory in .38S&W.  It was ugly WWII parkerized, not the fancy nickel you have there.

_{My Mk12, Mod 0. Goes to the range every single trip, and gets shot every single trip. It just can't miss.}

This old Smith has a lot of holster wear. But it is good and tight. I don't have any history on it before I  traded for it. .

Holy crap!!!  All I have is a crappy Ruger 10/22.  Not only gun, just "weakest". LOL   Been through hell and back and keeps working. Many a rabbit has feared it. Bought it when I was 18 Yrs old.  WOW! That's almost 40 years ago!  Man, time goes fast.

No kidding about time! I had my oldest driving (permit driver) the vet and I to the local gravel pit for her first shoot! She loves the old 10/22 but shot a 12 ga. 762x39 .223 and a .45 kimber pistol! Big day for her and i think i might buy a new 10/22 if she shows more intrest soon.. She was a natural hitting clays at 50 yds. Baby steps. ? Vet says she will out shoot me hahaha i says watch that golf ball! Hit it up the bank and two more times as it rolled down. 10/22 is a must have!

When my son absconded with my 40 year old 10/22, I did what any 10/22 lover would do in my place. I bought another one. But what another one! I got the stainless bull barrel model with the Mannlicher stock. The thing is amazing accurate! Right out to 100  yards. Now he would like that one, but no no.

[planeflyer21]

/\/\/\/\ Oooo!!    I like the Mannlicher version.

Been wanting one of these:

 

[Armed Eye Doc]

Bought one of those for my dad for his birthday.  He can't shoot long guns much bigger than a 22 since he got his defibrillator. At almost 87, he is still a better shot than most people.
