I’m going to get a .22 rifle next week. Admittedly, it’s beginner, but unfortunately, so am I.

A .22 rifle is a great place to start. Don't underestimate it. Every large land animal on earth has been killed with a .22, including elephants.

Probably more people killed with a .22 than with a .30-30.

You can get a good .22 for a couple of hundred dollars.

Marlin model 60

Ruger 10/22

Savage 64

Mossberg 702

I have seen the Mossberg 702 or the Rossi RS22 (mostly the same rifle) going for less than $100 on sale. They generally work well. Occasionally a clinker that needs a burr removed.

Lots of reviews on it.

The RS22 is the same rifle, slightly different stock.

A spare magazine is nice, if you can find one under $30, you are doing well.

Dear Speaker Pelosi,

PLEASE, PLEASE, PRETTY PLEASE, make “Gun Control” a centerpiece of the DIMocRATS fall campaign.

Then we can SINK the DIMs for a generation, as well as the GOP taking over the HoR & increasing the number of conservative Patriots in the US Senate.

To All: I regard the “Progressive Democrats” as some of the “enemies domestic” that all of us GIs took a solemn oath to protect the US Constitution FROM.

Yours, TMN78247

Actually I think she and the other top Democrats see the effort to make the police ineffective coupled with gun control makes it easier for them to further their ambition to destroy the Republic and become the Democratic States of America.

True enough— get enough 22 rounds into certain target areas (like, the head) and you have a dead perp/enemy/criminal.

To be blunt, up close and personal with a reduced powder 22 round to the head (doesn’t exit but rattles around) is the choice of...clandestine experts. But a 1/4 mile away Creedmoor is darned good as well.

Eh, a little far away for me, but I do have a firearms shop quite literally 2 or 3 blocks from my House. I should be fine, should the shop survive the coming BLM protest* this Sunday. I had to make an appointment for Tuesday — Thanks, Covidiots.

*Yes, even in my otherwise decent, fairly small town, somebody’s about to leave the bag of idiots open.

And I sincerely hope that the protest — again, just like the gun shop, it will be 2 or 3 blocks from my house — will go peacefully, so I won’t have to be up all night sitting on the front porch with a frying pan in my hands and my Ka-Bar in my pocket.

It all makes so much sense.

1)ACAB. All Cops Are B—s. Therefore

2) Only cops should have guns.

Explain tome how that works.

I never took you as a ‘beginner’. I figured you were always well-armed.

Nope. What can I tell you? Normalcy bias in a Bleu state. And believe me, I would LOOOOOOVE to get back to swimming in that stinking stew of normalcy bias, talking my big talkety-talk on the computer but otherwise not doing much else.

Unfortunately, Reality has reared up on it’s hind legs and said, “Come with me if you want to live.” It is that starkly simple.
