I have a Glenfield 25 I got for my twelfth birthday in 1971. I think it was used, because it came with no papers, but it looked new. I still have it, it's my only .22 rifle, and it's slayed many a squirrel, with iron sights. It's always functioned flawlessly. I bought a spare mag for it from either Midway or Numrich not too long ago. I love it, for various reasons, but that's because of 39 years of memories and no trouble out of it, not because I know any better...
