Every freedom loving home in America should have one of these rifles.

Do we need our primitive weapons?

Ruger 10/22 seem to have a never ending list of after-market kits and part.

Meh
Crappy design when it comes to bolt hold-open and mag release. Plenty of suppressors available tho.

I agree. The grab and go gun is the Ruger 10/22 (bull barrel tactical). The ARs, the 9mms, the 308s, the 45s, etc. etc. can stay home.

Darn!
I have seven guns, but not the 10/22.
I guess I can't get one, then....
Oh, well.
Getting a Mossberg Chainsaw tomorrow.
To: Perseverando
Put a big scope on a 10-22 and you can aggravate varmints way out there.

Excellent choice if there can only be one. I just picked up a 10/22 take down and couldn't be happier.
Here is a test of 22LR where the round completely penetrated a whole turkey wrapped in 3 layers of denim (3 in, 3 out) at 250 yards.
22LR Test
That's not just "better than nothing" it's pretty damn good if you can't afford something bigger. ~$225 at Walmart, ~$300 for the take down.

It seems wrong to give this guy's company your very first or last gun business.

I think I would choose a high quality 12 gauge auto or pump shotgun but I think the 10/22 is also a good choice.

I’m a bit dubious of the .22lr as a self defense cartridge. While it certainly can kill someone, it doesn’t tend to do it in a really timely fashion. It’s more of a bleed out kind of round.

I bought one last Friday to go with my Marlin 60. Unfortunately, you can’t find a single bullet anywhere in East Texas except shotgun shells, deer cartridges, and a few obscure pistol rounds.
To: Perseverando
I received a Ruger 10/22 for my 12th birthday! No background check, no nothin! I love that gun, but wouldn’t rely on it for security.
The next year I walked to the local hardware store in my little village and bought my own Mossberg 20 gauge c-lect choke, again with no background check or anything.
Oh lordy, how have I survived so far!

If I was limited to just 1 gun, I would want it to be a 12ga pump shotgun. Or a 30-06. With reloads you could load it down to the power level of your 10/22. It’s hard to pick just one. They’re just tools. Just like hammers. Pick the right one for the job at hand.
To: Perseverando
I cast my vote for the M-1 Garand.
