What is your 22 rimfire "truck gun"? I know a lot of people carry bigger power (and you can throw that out there), but most people carry the lowly 22.

My dads was a remington pump model 12 or a marlin glenfield 22 or a Marlin bolt 22 mag with removable magazine. The favorite was the 22 mag because it had more power.

When I go back to the farm, its usually a ruger 10/22 because of the carbine size and magazine feed. I'll throw in the 77/22 target if I know I am going to pick off pigeons off the tin shed roofs, but its an expensive rifle for knocking around.

So what are your truck guns? Extra credit for pictures.

Edit: In Minnesota, we are required to be cased & unloaded so magazine fed guns rule.

humdinger - mine is a new/old "Franken-Ruger" 10/22. Took the action from a new 'compact' w/16 inch barrel and installed it using an ancient full size LOP Ruger stock. Added a new Ruger after-market trigger group (2.5#) and an old steel Weaver K2.5X w/ dual X scope. Now I have an accurate, very handy Jeep .22LR. Homesteader

Marlin 982S with a 3.5-10x40 Simmons Whitetail Classic in B-Square SUV low alloy rings and a Rossi 515, both .22 Magnums, but I have a set of six chamber inserts to allow me to plink with .22LR ammo in the Rossi or loaded singly in the Marlin.

Marlin Model 60 Carbine with a tube fed magazine lives in my truck 24 / 7

Don't leave my Nylon 66 in there any more. It's getting too dang valuable and hard to replace!

Foxy lady liberal says, "Would you shoot a varmint in my chicken coop."

The gun to take is a $35 Marlin single shot 22 that is pre 68 with no serial numbers.


Be ready to walk away from it.

Had one of those years ago. Sold it to pay wife's medical bills. Very nice rifle!

I ate armadillo in Zipolite Mexico in 1972. The hunter killed it with a stick and sold to to a restaurant [picnic bench owner].
I probably paid 10 pesos.

Now it has become horribly expensive and you have to know someone.

Very nice looking rifle.
