Those 500 series Remingtons are great rifles. One of my lifelong regrets is letting a 512X get away from me. I blame it on callow youth.
These are my two current rimfire rifles. Not fancy but they keep me happy. This .22LR is from 1985.

And if memory serves, this .22 WMR is from 1987. It's my all around favorite rifle. A joy to carry and shoot. It's done it's duty enough that it's trusted 100%.

On the schedule for this coming Monday. Been very busy of late.Hope you've fired your newest! Rifles need to be fired to impress their owners and friends.
That one was about shot out when I got it. Rusted solid, broken disconnector spring, water damaged wood, worn down firing pin, and the bolt detent ball was missing.I had a "click-claker" and shot it out. I've had some serious .22s and .17s.
I had the terrible Charter Arms AR7, but Ive heard nothing but good things about the Henry version.Haven't seen a Henry AR-7, U.S. Survival rimfire in this thread yet; so here's an example. Picked it up in Jan. 2016 at a gun show on a whim. Not one of my regular shooters, just keep it as a compact, light, small game survival piece as it was intended to be. Has only had 98 rounds through it so far and all of them were accurate and the gun ran flawlessly. View attachment 1139583..View attachment 1139584.. Most of the receiver is aluminum and the steel barrel has a plastic ABS coating on it so there's not much to worry about rust-wise. What else is nice is how quick and easy it is to take down or assemble, not to mention how it all, (receiver, barrel, & 2 magazines) stores inside the buttstock when taken down. .View attachment 1139588.. Makes an easily storable unit and they claim that when broken down & stored, with the butt plate cover on, it will float if dropped into water, but I haven't tried that yet, LOL. View attachment 1139589..Interesting gun; definitely not an average, everyday rimfire.
Lol.I had the terrible Charter Arms AR7, but Ive heard nothing but good things about the Henry version.
On the Charter AR7, the open areas inside the stock were filled with foam, and yes, it DID float- so you couldn't even be rid of it by throwing off the boat into the gulf!
I have oneof those too, totally unreliable. I never could get it to shoot ten in a row. Once in a while it would go full auto and buzz through 5 ir 6 before it jammed up again..View attachment 1137925 Here's one I don't have anymore. It's a Mossberg 51m. Most finicky rifle I've ever owned, and ultimately why I sold her.

It belonged to my grandpa.
Dagnabbit! Even the proverbial "boating accident" won't work..... On the Charter AR7, the open areas inside the stock were filled with foam, and yes, it DID float- so you couldn't even be rid of it by throwing it off the boat into the gulf!
Got your money's worth out of that baby!Here’s another one you don’t see every day. Its a K.K.W. Made by Gustloff-Werke. If I remember right, it was made between 1932 and 1935.
I haven’t shot it in a while, but used to shoot the hell out of it every summer. I picked it up for $150 back in 1999.

I think when I got it, they were selling for around $300. Now they are selling for over $2000. So I have gotten my money’s worth out of it. I don’t know if I’ll sell it one day or give it to one of my kids.Got your money's worth out of that baby!
