    I have one 22 handgun, a Ruger MkI that I've had since 1970. shoot anything that needs shootin. I have 4 or 5 22 rifles, of which, for serious squirrel hunting I'll use one of the 52s; but for just plain fun, my favorite is the one I bought a while back for my wife- a Marline 1897 Texan.

    Remington 10C Mohawk. It's a POS, but it's fun to plink with. When I get my FFL, I'm gonna pick up a Ruger Single Six, just cause I haven't wasted money on a new gun for a few weeks.

    O Lord,
    grant me the Serenity
    to accept the things
    I cannot change
    the courage to change the things I can,
    and the supreme firepower to make the difference.

    Browning Buck Mark Camper for chasing golf balls out to about 30 yards or so. Then a Ruger 10/22 with a Simmons scope to chase them out past 100. Darn golf balls! I keep chasing them away but they just keep coming back![:D]

    Mostly targets,hunting and plinking. If I am remembering them all I have 12 .22 handguns and 17 .22 rifles. Most of the handguns are High Standards except a couple Rugers and a Taurus.The rifles are a mix of whatever caught my fancy at the time.Mostly old boltactions.

    I have some more, just can't recall which I sold and which I kept. If a 22lr can't put five shots in a nickel sized hole at 50 yds I sell it or give it away. Although I did give one 22mag away that would do that at 75 yds. I have heard that it is serving it's new master well.

    Norinco .22lr bolt action w/ simmons 4x32 scope for the price I got it for I was very impressed with the accuracy. I use it for punching holes in paper, tin cans, and small furry woodland creatures.

    This should keep me busy for a while.

    Rifles;

    Stevens mod 44-inherited from Great Grand Father.Was my first .22.

    4-Remington mod 241 Speed Masters-One is "shorts only",but I thought I'd include it since it's really the only one that gets used.It stays behind the kitchen door.

    Browning Automatic Rifle "Belgium"

    Remington #4 rolling block

    Remington Nylon 66

    3-10/22's-one's my old truck gun,one's an early model I've never fired and one's NIB Stainless w/Laminated International stock.

    H&R Riesing mod 65-military trainer-paper puncher,too heavy to carry around.

    Winchester mod 67-another paper puncher.

    Stevens mod.? in 22WRF(I know,it's not a LR,but WTH.)My go-to for anything around the house that will only require one shot.

    Mossberg mod 352K

    Oh yeah,I almost forgot this one;
    Daisy mod 2202 Legacy w/4x Bushnell(like new)--The kid at the pawn shop thought it was a pellet gun and let me have it for $60.[:D]

    I'm probably forgeting a few,but I'll add'em later when they come to me.

    Hand guns;

    Ruger MkII stainless,Competition Model,Slab Side.Carry it in the field when I feel the need.

    Browning Buckmark Target model w/14" bull barrel and Tasco Pro Class scope.Just got it and haven't really shot it much yet.Gonna be for the bench.Too damned heavy to carry around.

    I know there's more,but they'll come to me.[:D]

    An evil tree bears evil fruit. You can destroy as much fruit as you want, but it will always grow back, and it will always be evil.

    Tear the tree out of the ground by the roots and burn it. Burn it to ash and grind out the embers with your boot until there's nothing left. Not a single spark. Not a single seed.

    Ruger 10/22 with 4X Tasco scope...Plinking and Tree Rat hunting
    Ruger Mark II 5.5" Bull Barrel..same as above + some formal shooting

    Several others, but these two get the most use.

    Guns only have two enemies: Rust and Liberals....

    How many guns have you lost during your life, as a result of a liberal action?
