Termite, a frequent commenter and long-time friend came by the shop yesterday. As we do, we talked about the United Healthcare assassination, the Daniel Penny verdict the M3A1 submachine gun, and a host of other topics. All while we mounted an optic on a rifle for his daughter.
One topic that came up was the Ruger 10/22 and why Ruger doesn't offer a blank magazine well inletted into the toe of the stock as a place to carry a spare magazine. I've always thought that would be a good idea, and I'm certainly not the only person who has thought about that.
Termite had picked up a really nice little Ruger for his daughter. What they call the 10/22 carbine. Synthetic stock, no sights, with a scope base installed. Really light little rifle, noticeably lighter than the standard 10/22 that lives in my gun case.
I first met Termite's daughter in January 2012, where we introduced her to handguns. She has other challenges now, specifically concerning a fox and a hen house. I think that 10/22 will go a long way toward solving that problem.
