Very Nice. Was that one of the WalMart special editions?

I don't know. Dated at 1994

Very nice.

I see variations of 10/22s online that I never saw on the Ruger site, presumably special runs similar to the ones they do for Lipseys and others. Some of them get the ol’ juices flowing, but if I wait a bit the fever passes. I have one good one that required no tweaking or upgrading and I’m gonna just stick to it, I think….

Very nice! I have a real soft spot for mannlicher rifles.

This thread and some other reading out there lead me to believe it was a Wal Mart exclusive. They tend to fetch a pretty good price.

I have but one 10/22. It is abysmally boring.

Near as I can determine it is vintage 1971.

I suffer from that affliction also. It can get expensive.

I bought one of those from Walmart in the early 90's on clearance.

Had a nice new one for our Hunter Safety program that stove piped about every other round. Sent it down the road. A much older beater works perfectly.

The stainless 10/22s with the green laminated Mannlicher-style stocks are a non-cataloged run made for Wal-Mart. I have 3 of them; 2 with a 240- prefix that were shipped in 1994 and 1 with a 242- prefix that was shipped in 1995.

Under the Ruger naming scheme they are the KRBIBBZ style, Model 01132.

Mine is 239 prefix

Why does everyone else's rifles always look better than any of mine?

Nice pictures of some nice guns.

When I worked for Walmart in college we had these in stock. International (Mannlicher) stocked and standard sporters were available. All were stainless and that green laminate stocked. I still have my International.
