Ruger 10/22 Carbine .22 LR, 18" Barrel, American Walnut Stock, 10rd

This rifle is a legendary firearm. I purchased a standard carbine back in 1994 (30th anniversary). It is the most durable, rugged and reliable firearm I have ever owned, and I've owned a lot over the years. It is my favorite rifle too. It is the 'standard' by which all other semi-auto .22's are measured. Everyone who can own firearms should own a Ruger 10/22, if no other firearm. This is an 'All American' rifle. My only two minor complaints are with the factory sights and trigger; they could use improvement. Ruger should install fully adjustable 'peep' sights and fix the rough trigger, and they would have a 5 Star rifle on their hands. Even so, if I could only own one rifle, this would be it...

I love it, that all i have to say

When I was 11 years old my parents bought me my first gun; the 10/22. I was estatic. I did alot of target practice at an uncles farm to gain experience and eventually added an inexpensive scope. The gun was made with simplicity in mind. It's an excellent entry level gun. I've had it 42 years now and it still looks and shoots like it just came out of the box. I'm very pleased with the Ruger products I own.

If i had to choose just one firearm, this would be it hands down. should be everyones first gun. tack driving accuracy, rock solid dependability. dont get caught without one. buy it now.

have had this for about ten years now and love everything about it. it shoots great and you can buy anything you want for it. i have a 3x9 scope on mine a little over kill but it works beautifully.

Bought this rifle for my son when he earned up a credit with us. He has taken awesome care of it and when he is down doing all his work he cares and cleans it. This rifle is fun for the whole family but has been especially good for my son and his responsibility. Would definitely recommend!

My son and I have spent lots of hours and lots of rounds having plinking contests with my Ruger 10/22. This is the rifle I bought five years ago for inexpensive target practice and fun. It has paid back handsomely ever since, consuming every kind of .22 LR I could buy in bricks. It has proven very accurate and reliable, even in the hands of a squinty shooter. As perhaps the most customizable gun in the world, it was easy to fit with a pair of see-through rings and a low-power scope that lets us choose scope or iron sights without changing parts. This is the only modification made to my gun, though it's simple to customize with a broad choice of accessories. My only caveat; keep it clean. When full of crud it will jam, but it will shoot a lot before getting that dirty. As for our contests, my son usually wins, but we both come out ahead.

Ruger has an excellent reputation for making fine, affordable American made firearms. Their excellent designs have made them one of the top makers for many years now. The Ruger 10/22 is probably one, if not, my favorite guns of all time. How else can you acquire such a versatile plinking gun? The options of customization are nearly endless, and the choices of magazine capacity are awesome. I highly recommend butler creek steel lips 25 round magazines if you want the added capacity. The factory mags are extremely reliable and are a great innovation because they load flush, and don't protrude from the rifle. The short stock is great for getting the younger kids into shooting sports and hunting. I have shot thousands of rounds through my 10/22 and it will eat any kind of ammo I put through it from value federal, to CCI raptors. If you are looking for a great small game/ plinking rifle that is fully customizable, I highly recommend the tried and true Ruger 10/22. As with any firearm, be sure to clean it when it gets dirty, or you will have jams.

For the money this is an outstanding rifle. I got the folding tactical stock, 50 round clip and flash-hider. This is a nice little tricked out rifle for much less than a big-boy version and much more affordable to own and shoot.
