Agreed, get an older one with the metal trigger group thingyRuger 10/22, around $200.00
22/45 Ruger .....Since you posted in the handgun section, I'd have to say a Ruger Mk II or MK III. Otherwise, I'd be saying 10/22, also.
I do not own any automatic guns.
but i enjoy shooting the mk II, as well as the ruger 10/22.
I sold one of my old top break 22 revolvers and wish i wouldn't have done it!
I really like and recommend the Ruger 22/45 Lite! I need to find a little scope to mount on it soon.
is this lke a small 1911?
22/45 Ruger .....
