ps: What about you or is this a troll question?


currently I do not own any .22 LR firearms.

what's the meaning of " is this a troll question ? " :D
 
Let me see! I have the following .22LR firearms:

1) 2 Ruger 10/22 Rifles

2) 1 Bronco Rifle (Neat little rifle)

3) Mod. 22A S&W

4) Mod. 63 S&W

5) Mod. 41 S&W

Hheap to shoot and fun to use!:D
 
I was just talking about .22 rifles with a guy at work today. I was telling him about all the shooting that I did with a friend when we were kids. I proudly wielded a Remington Scoremaster(mod # ?), my best friend had a Monkey Ward bolt gun with a SCOPE!

The Remington was my Dad's gun, formerly a dusty taboo in his clothes closet, now my deadly dealer of deadly death. Nothing could compare to having a fresh brick of high velocity(OOH) hollow points(AHH), or even Yellow Jackets! With such awesome weaponry, we were quite sure that we were an Arsenal of Democracy.

Shooting was so pure and simple, and all kidding aside, we were really pretty good shots. Strictly plinking- dirt clods, cans, dandelions, carpenter bees. A special treat was the half-used spray can. Simple games- "See that twig sticking out ?" POP! "Hah, missed. My turn!" POP!

Most of our guns are bigger and badder now, some even a bit tacticool, but shooting is just not as amazing as it was. We don't get to go as much, my friend's dad sold the farm a few years back, my dad's .22 is back in his closet.
I was telling the guy at work that I would love to have shooting be like that again, but I guess 40 year olds can't get back into the 14 year old mindset.

I have 3 .22's of my own now, and I can't imagine being without them, no matter what milsurp or Magnum phase I'm in. Now I'm wondering if they still make Yellow Jackets......

Oops- forgot the obligatory-
H&R 999 Sportsman 4"
Ruger 10-22 carbine
Stevens 56-C
 
Several...

Marlin Model 60
Ruger Mark II Gov't Target Model Stainless
Davis Derringer (paperweight)

and my personal favorite, which is still unfired...

My 4-yr-old son's Henry Minibolt, which his grandpa gave him for his first Christmas, when he was a whole nine months' old! :D

M92FS,
A troll question is a post/question by a troll to stir up controversy. I just found it strange that you didn't tell us how many .22 LR's you owned. Guess I should have attached a smiley face to indicate joke or funny comment. Am a little surprised that every shooter doesn't own at least one .22 LR pistol or rifle. Can only say to non-owners, "You don't know what you are missing without a .22 LR". Just my .015. :) :) (Two smileys here to make up for missing one before.)

Good shooting and be safe.

ps: I took my Wilson/Marvel Unit 1 combo out today and fired at 50 yds without a rest for the first time in many years. Two conclusions,
1) I "ain't" as young as I used to be, and
2) That target sure does look small from 50 yds away.
 
Actually own two .22LRs...

One is a family rifle that now belongs to my son even though it hasn't been "transferred" yet.

Two is a S&W 10 round revolver. Going to use this to help teach my boy how to shoot...that is once he's old enough.
