Even though I have two ARs in the planning stage, an RCO to be ordered this year and another AR to put guts back in.... Whats a good, inexpensive .22lr? Doesn't matter how its loaded but a box mag would be a +
Not looking for anything match grade, just a plinker I can shoot when my AR(s) become to expensive to shoot for a day at the range. |

yep a 10/22 gets my vote also for mag fed; plus it has a shitload of aftermarket support if you want to throw money into it.
although you may find a marlin model 60 for cheap either the 16shot rifle or 10 shot carbine, they're both real decent shooters in my experience. |

I just bought one for my oldest son for Christmas. $197 + tax at Academy. That's the wood stock and blued barrel version... It's $187 at WalMart. The synthetic stock and stainless barrel is $197 at WalMart. I just bought the SS version and it's very light and easy to work with ETA: pic

yep everybody needs to have a 10/22 and a 22/45. 22/45???? 
yep, get you a 22/45 and I'll show you how to shoot it Don't need to. I'm sure I can show you how to shoot yours. 
Just like I showed our favorite jarhead how to shoot his 1911. 
Sorry, C, I had to bring that up too.

I aint gonna lie dan, you did show me a few things about it. I did notice that when I did the "Self defense" draw and shoot, I did better with that then the casual shots. With my 1911, I just took what I know/learned with the M9 and applied it to my 1911, like reload drills, draw... Things like that. Admitingly, I still have a few things to learn about it and a few things to practice to become more effective with it. Im more at home with a rifle but I love me some 1911... hence why I got it 
What Wal-mart you guys seeing these 10/22s at? I haven't seen barely a Daisy or Red rider at the Belle isle walmart or the one on 240 and Shields. |

The Walmart on I-35 in Norman sells guns still... Even a Bushy AR15 
That's where I got mine at +1 they'll still special order any rifle listed on their website also; you just print out the item description, take it in and they call when it arrives. least thats how I got my 10/22; didn't want the carbine version so I special ordered the rifle version |

That's where it counts, grasshopper. With my 1911, I just took what I know/learned with the M9 and applied it to my 1911, like reload drills, draw... Things like that. Admitingly, I still have a few things to learn about it and a few things to practice to become more effective with it. You're not too far off from being really good. I'm not BSing either. I'm speaking from 10s of thousands of rounds out of the dozen or more 1911s I've owned over the years. More trigger time with a gimped up old fart you know and you'll be DAMN GOOD.

| I guess I'm the only one who refuses to board the 10/22 bandwagon. I have a Remington 597 that I really enjoy shooting. My little sister has a Savage Model 64 semi-auto that is a great little gun, and a buddy of mine has a Savage Mark II bolt-action that is also a great little .22 rifle. |

I lost track of all the other 22s I have. The 10/22s get shot the most. |
