I never had one before, but being a carbine kind of a guy I always liked the looks of a Mannlicher. Then I decided that I "needed" a Ruger 77/22 and went looking on the gun sites. I happened upon a nib Ruger 77/22 RSI walnut / stainless and it came home to my house. I never knew that they made such a thing and it was probably a special run. It is still a work in progress for a scope and low rings, but I kind of like it so far.


My other auto is a .45

The bitterness of poor quality is remembered long after the sweetness of low price has faded from memory
