I used to burn trash and saved the cut-out lids of 55 gallon drums for my kids to plink at. At 100 it sounded like, puhh, wait, wait, wait, wait, TINK....... My youngest's nickname while shooting was stinky-puhh-tinky.....

Well that was about as much fun as a man can stand. I brought it home and ran a few tubes of CB shorts through it. Pine cones fell from trees, rocks flew and flies died.

Used to fold the rear sight down, and shoot bumblebees. Points real good. Gave it to the granddaughter. Sure is a nice rifle.

Nice gun. I still kick myself for selling an FN Trombone and SA pair that I picked up in Canada. That little Trombone was slick.

I've put about a brick of ammo through it so far off the back porch. I love the little bastard.
I'd not mind a peep sight for it, but it still works fine as is.

I just got a henry small game rifle in .22 mag with a peep sight. I love peep sights. I love it so far but the quality isn't as nice as your gun. I love the engraving, very nice rifle.

Get new or old? Bro has an old std BL. Used often to bag a limit of squirrels using those CCI shorts. I have shot a best friends 39. Owned a 9422 that felt Wrong w a scope so off that came. Dumped a few squirrels with it iron sights. Both well made but the BL seems Sized for a 22. Short throw as all Yes the pull wt. Is a PIA but I still HIT well with one. A BL is on my bucket list. No Pun Enjoy your BL

Both are nice guns. The BL22 is my favorite of the 22LR lever guns. The short lever throw and beautiful wood and metal finish are top notch.

Took out a few pine cones yesterday. So far all I've been shooting has been CB shorts and shorts.

Did you get the base Grade 1 blue or satin receiver? The G2 are alright, but not my idea of a field piece personally. I do like the octagon model that was out in the past. The "Shorty" looks interesting but the 20" already is...and holds more ammo.
Those shorts are quiet Deadly, one of the members here apparently dropped a few hogs, wild not ground...

Nice gun. I still kick myself for selling an FN Trombone and SA pair that I picked up in Canada. That little Trombone was slick. I have a Browning trombone that Mom bought for Dad in 1948. All original except the metal follower for the mag tube. He ran so much ammo through it that the metal wore out, so he crimped an empty casing into the mag tube. I learned how to shoot on that little rifle, and so did my two daughters. Scott ........ You are going to grow to love that BL 22. I bought a used one for my youngest daughter, and she impresses me with her marksmanship. Darn thing shoots great, cycles great, and quickly.

You enabler....
Just ordered one, LGS only had the Grade I and a Micro version in their catalog so I have a Grade I coming.
Yours looks downright snazzy...
