I recently developed a fondness for .22 lr rifles and carbines. Accurate, light (well most of the time), cheap to shoot, easy to work on.

Here’s my lot

Ruger 10/22 shorty, made in 1992. Bought it at an auction some years back, came with a Parker Hale silencer







AMT Small Game Hunter II bought recently. It has a nice heavy barrel and stainless steel receiver. Trigger is great too, similar to the next one here under





10/22 target hammer forged barrel made in 1997, just brought it home, haven’t shot it yet





Savage Mk II bought new last year. I don’t buy many new firearms, but I picked it up at the LGS while buying something else. In Switzerland bolt rifles do not need a license, most other guns do. It’s also threaded and super quiet with the silencer and subsonic ammo.





A French Unique X51 from 1965. This was a very popular rifle in France, sold by department stores on catalogue. It’s a nice light and accurate rifle. The scope is a German WWII unit.







Another antique from the 50ies, a pump action FN Browning Trombone
