Heading to the Indy 1500 gunshow tomorrow. I do not now, nor have I ever owned a semi-auto .22 (or for that matter a .22 repeater). My .22 rifle is an Ithaca saddle gun...single shot martini action that looks like a convetional lever action repeater. Great gun and loads very fast.
I am looking for some endorsements or testaments from this community on a good .22 semiauto. I also have a couple of questions (see below)
Obviously the Ruger 10/22 is going to be on the short list. I like the GI type sights that are available for it. It's reputation is very good, though not spotless as I understand it.
Any thoughts? See you Hoosiers at the 1500 tomorrow!

- Can I affix GI type rear apeture sights on other .22 semis?
- Unlike centerfire semis, it seems it is often tough to fieldstrip a .22 semi auto. Is this a real problem? Is there a brand that is easier to take apart and clean than others?
- Any favorites out there?
