Good?



Asking arfcom for opinions is like asking to have your nuts crushed via stapler, but I saw this in the store today, and can't help giving it some further thought.



The cartridge kicks ass, IMO, so save that argument for the field and we'll compare each others 'confirmed kill' lists some other day.




What do you think though? Ghey, cool, snactical, righteous, wicked, problematic, plastique? Looks fun-ish.



(the one in the store was prettier.... silver upper, no bulky optics, clean, etc..)

Hard to say.
Never heard of it.

First thing I would do is hack saw that bottom support
on the "Sporter" style stock.

I like .22 mag though.
Liked it even better before it got expensive.

Similar thoughts.



They have a pistol that matches.... I saw it in the same store a couple of months ago... Assume it shares magazines.



A couple of google results weren't optimistic back then.



But since PCR took the wind out of my sails, I'll just sit back and wait for the stapler.

It aint no Ruger 10-.22Mag. I voted no like. A semi .22mag appeals to me, but $36 for a mag? I'd rather have my .22mag Marlin bolt action and 7 round mags.

Yeah Tikka mags are expensive (last one i bought were $40) But then again 1911 mags are expensive too (for good ones).
Looks kinda neat, i dont think i would buy it because i have my rimfire rifle. But i wouldnt mind shooting one...

I'm pretty sure 3 round mags for Tikkas are near $60 now. (haven't actually looked myself)



Browning BAR mags have been over $50 for nearly a decade now, 3-4 rounds, depending on caliber.



Benelli, Sako, or even Remington mags aren't exactly given away these days...





Nevermind us "cheap-ass" fudds...

The $36 proprietary magazine killed the idea for me.  Why not get a Ruger 10/22 Mag and tapco the fuck out of it?  At least you know that it would run, AND that you could get mags for it.
