Getting some rimfire love

[D53]

Ok so after getting tired of the cost and all the BS with my AR I started getting into rimfire rifles and pistols. Ironiclly enough .22 ammo is starting to get hard to find ( for a decent price-my idea of a decent price anyways) But never the less I have picked up a couple .22LR and had some questions.

First off I finally picked up m NIB Ruger 10/22,(from River City Gun Echange) i tossed a Tasco 4x32 scope on it and I plan on leaving it just like that. Maybe adding a bipod later on, but thats about it:


I also picked up a J.C. Higgens Ranger .22LR Revolver(used). ( also purchased at River City Gun Exchange) I picked it up since the price was right and I figured it would be cool little pistol for the wife to shoot and maybe give to my kid someday ( when I have one). The only problem is I can't really find too much info on these guns. I am not really looking to do any upgrades for it, just looking to see if there is any reliablity problems.

And last week I did a PPT for a Phoneix .22LR semi Auto pistol. Once again the price was unbeatable. The only problem is I can't find any info on buying extra mags for it, that are in stock. And I noticed that the slide was a little on the loose side, but from what I understand, thats pretty much how all including new ones are.

So I figured i would post up and see if anyone else has either of these two pistols and any info on them or experiances with them would be appreciated. Thanks

looks nice bro! I just picked up my marlin 795. I'll probably go shoot the crap outta it tomorrow since I read some reviews about it having a stiff trigger and will soften up after it gets broken in a bit

Congats on the new toys D53 my 1022 is my favorite in my collection never get tired of it and if I do theres so many upgrades you can go with, do your wallet a favor and stay off of RimfireCentral.com or not..I steal all my ideas for upgrads there and they always have the right answers to any ?s of the plinker oh yeah stick with factory Ruger mags and pick up a TRIMAG for them =its the only way 2 go

Im on Dros for 1022 Stainless syn. Have a bolt JC Higgins .22 also. 7k rounds of .22 should be good for a few days.

That's a very nice collection, but no Colt Woodsman in the picture?

I'm even with you on rifles, but you're a couple ahead on pistols. You can't have too many .22's!

Is that a .22 WMR AMT in the pic? I can't tell. I've always wanted one! How does it shoot?

Thanks for the compliment! I have 2 AMT rimfires; the rifle is an AMT Hunter in 22LR(second down from top) and the pistol pictured is the AMT Automag II in 22 WMR. It's WAY cool to shoot; HUGE ball of fire from the muzzle and NO recoil.

I'm jealous! The AMT has always been on my wishlist. Ah, but I have a birthday coming up...maybe the family will come through!

Very nice. I would like to pick up a bipod for my 10/22 as well to keep from shaking while in the prone.
