Hill country and Corpus. And here I am stuck in Shreve Burg! You guys suck :laugh: .

+1 on the SS 10/22. We've got that rifle minus the folding stock. Love it! Been looking for one of the old Fed Ord 10/22 bottom folders, but so far no joy.

Born in Bossier City here...other than that I have no memories at all, Dad was in the Air Force we were just passing thru.

I got the 10//22 during the Klinton gun ban and folding stocks were banned. When I got it did not fold, but out comes the engineer in me and I look at the thing and figured out what they did, just put a notch on the spacer, so I flipped it over put it back in and it already had the notches for folding, so again I was flipping the finger at gun laws.

Keeping kids safe by not having a folding stock on your 10/22, don't cha just love our brilliant govt...

Bought my 10/22 in 1977. Put a Bushnell 2x scope on it and a sling and haven't done anything to it since except shoot and clean it. You guys have me thinking I should add a tactical stock, but I do like the M-1 carbine look it has now. And I have to have some wood stocks to admire and be "old school" about. A darn good rifle though in any form. Iam thiking about going with a Red Dot sight on it though.

10/22 is an ALL TIME WORLD GREAT weapon. If its the ONLY weapon you could ever own for all purposes from self defense to putting protein on the table then it would have to be a top pick.

The addition of doubled 25 red mags puts a lot of firepower in your hands.

:I-agree: I have been using the 25 rounders since the early 80's. The early 10/22's had to get their feed ramps polished before the 25 rounders were reliable. I don't know if that is still an issue. I lucked out, in that CDNN had 25 rd Red Mags on sale right before the November craziness and I bought up a bunch. Never had a jam except for the above ramp issue, which I took care of long ago. Have competition for it now, my son likes it a lot. May have to get him one when they become available again.
