better put me in the addicted club too. even though i know i can't afford it, i am planning my ulimate 10/22. but just a few more things to do to my "plinker" and its done (finish moding/painting the stock for it, and get a sun shield and flip up covers for the scope).

Addict? I dunno about that... but I've got over 2k into my .17HMR.

But then again, I only own 5 rimfires....

... for now!

Addicted takes on a whole new meaning when you have an entire family that shoots... all 22s....LOL

With all those .22's going crack, gives a whole new meaning to the term 'crack house' doesn't it???

LOL yeah ... you would certainly think so....

I just picked mine up a few minutes ago while I was on my lunch break.
I can't wait to get home and start tinkering. I can't do alot yet since nothing is due to arrive until friday, but I can get going on the stock mods I have been thinking about.

It will lose the barrel band and that piece of the forearm, and I am thinking it could use some venting and a flat 2.5-3 inch wide forearm too. Good thing I bought a piece of 1x4 poplar yesterday and some bondo for contouring.

Fun Fun Fun.

This one started life as a carbine stock, the fore-end is a 2" thick 4" wide chunk of poplar, fiberglass and then bondo did the contouring chores!

[SimonFencer]

Looks like I may be one also. Two weeks ago I had but 2 10/22's and only 2 other .22 handguns. Now, I've got a complete "ultimate" going one with 10/22 #3 and two more definately planned for now. More likely than not, more after that with all these new stocks being available now. This is gonna be tough to keep from the mrs. :1t

See that is where I am one step ahead (or behind, it is hard to tell) of you. The 10/22 technically is for my wife to use when she comes to the range with me.

how can you tell,

when you sleep in your rig overnite at the gate to the range so you will be first one in just to get your favorite bench. oh, dont forget your toothbrush or no one will talk to you. lol.

Yep... I admit it... I'm an addict too =) :Blasting_ :Blasting_ ... and proud of it!! It doesn't help that my better half (wonder who that is) has his own private arsenal :t

... and he wonders why I like him so much...LOL
