I have an original 10/22 that I bought about 1982. It spent most of its working life in my pickup. For the last few years, though, it has lived in the gun room (outside of the safe), to take care of pests when they wander into range.


A 10/22 was my first 22 rifle as a kid, I still have it. Couldn't begin to guess how many rounds have been fired in it.

Dad bought if for me in 1979, it's the 'deluxe' version with a walnut stock and no barrel band.
