I tried posting this over in the rimfire area, ended up with zero posts, so I'll try it here.

I'm looking at a Ruger 96/22 22mag in the local gun shop, and when you push in the mag release, the lever opens up a little. Is it supposed to do that?

My 96/22m and 96/17 do that. I don't know if it matters?

Thanks for the info. I just found a manual for it, and that’s how it works. Kind of weird, but I'll buy it anyway \:\) .

just an fyi, but my 96/22 is the most accurate .22 i have ever fired. i re-worked that nasty looking club of a stock into something looking like the savage 99, stained it in a light oak color and removed the barrel band. i can shoot at the previous bullet hole at 25 yards and usually hit it. Could not be happier with a $175 investment. my wife has now claimed it and i may not see it again lol...
