.22 rifles that look military

[Bondo_Red]

are there any .22 lr rifles that look like a good ole fashioned bolt rifle? I hate the look of these "sporter" models where half the barrel is just sticking right out.I know there are military training guns that are .22 lr.

I like the "Mosin M22" in the middle.

There is an old Mossberg model that has a peep rear sight, a wing protected front sight, a carbine length barrel and a stock that looked full when the vert grip was folded up. Accurate and inexpensive to boot.

Nice guns .45guy! Where bouts did you find those?

And I thought this was gonna be a thread about those silly tacti-cool "assault rifle" Rooney guns that some people make from .22's.

I'll be eagerly tracking this thread for info and sources! While I love my accurized 10/22 and Savage bolt gun, I would love to find more traditional looking rifles. I had never thought about military trainers in .22. I sense a new twist to my collecting.

I had never even had the "milsurp" look for a .22 bolt cross my mind.

Crap, now I want one.....

CZ all the way try these: Basically basic http://www.czusa.com/product_detail.php?id=46 best value hands down. Accurate reliable, magazines expensive, rings european sizing maybe $60 or more. Perfect for kids http://www.czusa.com/product_detail.php?id=5 The most beautiful rifle you may ever come across http://www.czusa.com/product_detail.php?id=45 should be a safe queen but too fun to shoot. I refuse to put a scope on her. If you want something to put a silencer on http://www.czusa.com/product_detail.php?id=82 and for good old American styling http://www.czusa.com/product_detail.php?id=1 I don't understand what you mean by "barrel just sticking right out" though so I don't know if these will help in your decision. There are some nice US made synthetic stocked bolt actions from Marlin and Remington

3006mv- You totally ommitted the CZ 452-2E ZKM "Trainer" whcih would be a very fitting and affordable model.

It accepts standard .22 groove rings for scope mounting- but they need to be high for bolt handle clearane. I personally have see-thru's because I get both height AND the ability to use the glorious iron sights that are standard on that model. The sights on the trainer model are excellent. In the last light rifle match I shot with mine (Scoped with a cheap 3-9x40) I scored out at 277/300 (target scores 89, 93, 95) on a course of fire consisting of 30 rounds, unsupported standing position, sling use not permitted @ 50 Feet. I came in second to another CZ shooter, who was using a CZ American model, with higher end optics and more expensive ammo- and the shooter is a very skilled and experienced 3P shooter. He scored a 278.

I have seen a couple of nice lookinf Mil-style trainers
J&G had a nice looking Enfield .22,
A guy at the range used to shoot a Mauser style .22 that was actually made in France.

 

[Vern Humphrey]

Of all the military .22 trainers, the Springfield M1922 is the creme de la creme -- mine is a re-stamped MK II.

CZ also makes their 452 in a Mannlicher style stock which is more "military" looking to me. At least WWII era, eastern Europe "military", hehe.

Of course the 1022 is designed to look like a sleeker M1 Carbine...

 

[America_without_liberals]

Is this more what you are looking for?

My local Dunham's sporting goods had them a year or so ago for $50.

The one I picked up shoots very nice and is accurate.

"...look like a good ole fashioned bolt rifle..." Yep. The No. 7 Lee-Enfield. Single shot .22 with target sights. It'll drive tacks with no fuss. Cheap nor common, they ain't.

 

[Firehand]

Over the last couple of years had the chance to shoot a Enfield trainer and one of the Polish M1948 trainers that looks a lot like a M38 M/N. Both good rifles, and quite accurate.

And you get the joy of firing a .22 in the Enfield and having people ask if there's something wrong with your ammo...

 

[Eightball]

I think the OPer was refrencing that he was looking for guns with wraparound handguards/stocks that are near full-length (sorta a mannichlier style).

Could be wrong. Though, my heart yearns for one of those mannichlier stocked beauties, regardless of calibre.......

 

[Firehand]

I think Military Gun Supply(militarygunsupply.com) still has the Polish trainers.

 

[rangerruck]

prly the most common and cheapest are the 69 romanian trainer. then you've got the marlin 22's, several models, that look like the m2 carbines. the glenfield 75, and 75-c, the 99m1 and the 99m2.

 

[rangerruck]

armscor and jaeger Italy, make 22 ak's and ar's.

 

[Ohen Cepel]

I have an Enfield trainer in .22. It's the same rifle, just in .22.
