As a young boy, I was gifted a new BL22 for my B day back in the early 1980’s. I still have that gun today and my young son is now shooting it. I can’t imagine how many rounds have been shot from it but being almost 40 years old now, it’s been a lot. It still shoots great and is an absolute blast to use. I love this little rifle.
The only negative I can find with the BL22 is the purchase price.
