Thank goodness, it appears that gunmakers and gun nuts alike are keeping it alive!
Manufacturers have introduced some fine new Henry Models Ruger let out a new "short" Bearcat and Uberti just had a write-up in Gunslingers new Magazine about their new full size ModelP in 12 shot .22 LR!
Can all this signal a change in opinion from the Rules Folks at the CAS groups to develop a sub category for the .22LR?
With full caliber guns all topping well over $600, mostly $700+ and up and rifles costing over a grand, maybe it's time to let the lowly .22 in? Sure would be neat to get started relatively inexpensively and upgrade later!
The RF is still out there, a little harder to find and much higher to buy, Often times with restrictions of 3 boxes but it's still out there!
Heck just for th love of the Old West these many new offerings will give an alternative to bullet spraying, jamming, Striker fired semi autos.
Just to be able to slow it down and enjoy shooting again would be neat!
I did it another way, I went to Black Powder shooting and the slow down sure is nice! You handle, spend time loading and generally get more fun out of your Guns instead of constantly stuffing magazines full with nothing to show from it but a sore thumb!
I sure hope I am reading this movement correctly! The shooting world does need to slow down and ejoy it all more!
