• Anything ‘published’ on the web is viewed as intellectual property and, regardless of whether it displays a copyright symbol or not, is therefore copyrighted by the originator. The only exception to this is if there is a “free and unrestricted reuse” statement associated with the work.

    In order to protect our members and TFL from possible litigation, all members must abide by the following new rules:

    1. Copying and pasting entire articles from another site to TFL is strictly prohibited. The same applies to articles from print or other media, and to posting photographs taken of copyrighted pages or other media.

    2. Copyright law provides for “fair use” of portions of a copyrighted work. You can copy no more than a SINGLE paragraph from the article to your post (3 or 4 sentences at most).

    3. You must provide a link to the article along with the name of website. For example: ww.xxx.yyy/zzz (The Lower Thumbsuck Daily News).

    4. You must provide, in your own words, a brief summary of the article AND your reasons for believing it will be of interest to TFL members. Failure to do so may result in the thread being closed or your post being deleted as a “cut and paste drive by.”

    5. Photographs and other images are also copyrighted. "Hotlinking" of images (so that it appears in your message) from other sites is also prohibited unless you own rights to the image. If you wish to share an image, provide a clickable link to it.

    Posts that do not follow these new guidelines will be altered or deleted by staff. Members who continue to violate this policy may lose their posting privileges at TFL.

    Thank you for your cooperation and your participation in TFL, the leading online forum for firearms enthusiasts.

This site is lacking one of the most formidable, basic, learning, firearm calibers that most of us have had as an "Encounter of The Third Kind", .22 rimfire.

I got my very first rimfire rifle, Winchester Model 67, when I was 10 years old. When I was 12, I was issued a Remington Model 513T CMP rifle and shot on a VFW rifle team at the local amory. At that time, I begged and promised I'd pick up all the dog poop in our yard and even the neighbors if Santa would drop off a Remington Nylon 66 on Christmas. There was a "massive" open pit dump full of 'rogue' dump rats that needed to be reconciled for their existence.
I've been working with and on Ruger Mark pistols for 50 years now, so I've been to the circus and have actually seen the elephants perform. There isn't much that I have seen that will not fix or enhance these Ruger Mark pistols. My notes are extensive, and go beyond what Ruger does when they get a Ruger Mark pistol returned for whatever reason. At Ruger, they only swap parts until the pistol meets their limited standards. I'm not happy with that.

At least they usually fix their firearms for free.

Like millions of other kids in America, I too opened a long package one Christmas morning in 1957 to find the best gift I've ever received-a Winchester Model 67, .22 rifle! I was 14 years old at the time. A couple of years ago, my oldest grandson unwrapped the same rifle for Christmas-I think his smile was almost as big as mine was. :)
 
No company out there fixes their poor product for free. The cost of the warranty repairs is ammortized into the price of the product. No free hugs.
 
The topic at hand is really one of site content, so I'll move this to the appropriate place.

It's also a topic that has been discussed and declined before. .22s also fit in to the forums already in place here: Semi-auto pistol, semi-auto rifle, revolver, etc.
