I’ve asked this multiple time to other people, but is the trigger break identical to the real thing?

Those are great for training! Have you checked out the SIRT eLearning that the USCCA offers?

Ithaca Lever-Action Single Shot 22LR - Mod. M-49 -

Learned to shoot with this from good old (extinct) Monkey wards rifle. And it’s still fun!

Well, actually, they’re all fun.

Yes, the trigger is surprisingly identical, all though, the recoil is not the same. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
Watching the laser hit is key to your grip and finger pull. A slash shows your hand movement and a dot is an idea shot.

Years ago, as an experiment to help me decide what hunting caliber to get, ( recoil vs shootability ) I bought a winchester trapper model lever action in .38 / .357, knowing I could shoot .38’s out of it just for fun. The experiment was designed to see just how good one might get with a rifle that was fun and easy to shoot. Turns out, you can get crazy good with something you have fun shooting and can shoot all you want. Add in that the .38 was very accurate out of the long barrel, and hit with enough authority to make all kinds of things fun to try, it is, to this day, the most fun gun I have to shoot. As a result of that I got a companion rifle in 22 LR, A Henry all blue, round barrel version that fairly duplicated the Winchester. For just plain fun, it’s one of those two. With the .22 it becomes is as low cost as it gets, and no worrying about saving brass either! :slight_smile:

I wonder if the current batch of self appointed censors of American speech ever stopped to think how much restraint the rest of us have used to avoid the urge to ban speech by political types where they deliberately mischaracterize anything they don’t like with false and misleading labels, that they then repeat at every opportunity, legitimate or otherwise.

False and misleading rhetoric is infamous for its use as a “weapon of war”. Is it not?

I thought of that when I first started watching The Walking Dead (when it was still great).

I currently have a Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22 that is my fun gun. I am also going to get a .22 lr pistol to plink with. The rifle and the pistol, once I get it, will double as training guns for my 9-year-old daughter, when she comes to the range with me.

I think a Gyrojet would be a lot of fun. Expensive, but fun.

There’s too many guns y’all. I don’t have enough money or time for all of them. Every-time I decide to get one, I have to pick one out if like 10 that I’d like to own. It’s sad reality… :smiling_face_with_tear:

I love plinking with my M&P 15/22. Outfitted it with a 1-4x 24mm scope and a backup 4 MOA red dot. Fun, fun, and fun - and inexpensive to shoot (compared to my 5.56 and .308 - and everything else for that matter).

I enjoy a day of plinking with my Janz revolver.

How about a suppressed Mosin Nagant Model 1897 revolver, chambered in 7.63mmx38R?

S/W AR15-22 rifle , S/W AR15-22 pistol SBR , CMMG .22 upper with 4-1/2 bbl and suppressor on a registered lower with a better mag adaptor all with Franklin Armory binaries and 35 round mags ( because 25s just don’t last long enough ) .
Also a Fight Lite 12 " barreled belt-fed upper on a registered SBR lower with a WOT .

They are incredibly affordable, reliable, and cheap to shoot! Do it, I love mine!

My fun gun (and serious/defense gun) is the Ruger 10/22. Such a nice, classic looking rifle. I want to get the Ruger LCP II .22 LR pistol as well, potentially for self-defense as well.
