When my son decides to walk the place just for fun,the first gun he grabs is his 9422M. Peep sight and large loop. Shoots the 50gr Golddots. Very accurate combination.
There would be no price to get that gun from him.
Gun Shows are almost as comical as boat ramps in the Spring.

I fitted mine with a Williams WGRS and a red F.O. front sight. Made a nice package.
What fresh Hell is this?

I may try a peep with mine if I ever get it back.
Scoping them has been difficult. I tried a Weaver extended rail and it worked fine until it fell off. I've thought about drilling and tapping the receiver but just can't bring myself to do it.
Still wouldn't sell it or the 22lr my dad has.

I tossed a fastfireII on mine..... That's looks like another great option. Great for vermin on the move. They are just fun guns to shoot. One of the best built Winchesters in recent years. Smooooooth!

94/22M I need to find one in .22LR or a Mountie. Missed out on more than one good deal thinking the price was high at that time. I doubt lever actions of this quality will ever be manufactured again.

I shot a 9422M belonging to one of the other guys on a hunt in Texas a dozen years ago, killing a pile of jackrabbits, and liked it so much immediately upon returning home started looking for one. Found a new 9422M, the checkered model, in a local gun shop, and bought it for something like $499.95. Shot it for several years but then for some reason sold it, maybe because we didn't have many jackrabbits in Montana anymore. Even made a few bucks.
After a couple of years decided that was a mistake, so looked for another and found one for $700. Luckily, it turned out to shoot even than the first, and in fact is the most accurate .22 Magnum I've ever owned. It doesn't have checkering but I don't care.

I re-checked the price on the 94-22LR that is in stock at Mazama's in Eugene, where I work part time. It's $595.00
Has some dings in the wood, so not "like new" but is a good solid "shooter" grade.

I put a Skinner peep sight on my 94-22 mag, with an 1/16" ivory bead on the front. The Skinner mounts in the existing scope grooves.
This is a great combo, with NO drilling and taping.
