Nice old 1022 (1973)
I picked this one up several years ago at my FFL guy’s shop. It was sitting in the rack a little worn and dinged. I grabbed it up and took a closer look… walnut Stock … pre warning barrel 113 serial #. Nice old Japanese Tasco 2x7 scope. It followed me home😎
I took it apart and it was oily dirty. I don’t think the previous owner ever took it apart and cleaned it. Just added oil and kept shooting.. not that unusual.
I cleaned it up better than new and put it together. The next morning I took it out to see how it shot. I was pleasantly surprised how well it shot CCI SV. It ran like a sewing machine not a hiccup or burp.Pretty nice trigger too for a stock 1022.
I took it back apart and stripped sanded and stained the Walnut stock. Put several coats of Tung Oil on it. I kinda like the stripes on this one. I waxed the metal took off the light surface rust on the barrel. Looked real good. I shot it a few more times and I really thought it was a good shooting stock 1022.
I ended up putting it in the safe and more or less forgetting it for years.
I dug it out a few days ago to look at it again… I decided this one will go to my grandson soon. He is 9 now and is interested in shooting.
I’m going to send it to CPC before I let him know it’s his rifle.

Great job!

I bought this one locally yesterday from an elderly man for $175. Was intending to use it for a project but no way I can bring myself to alter it. I believe it's from 1965.
I still have the one I bought in 1976, ser starts with 115-.

That’s a keeper. I wouldn’t alter it either.I bought this one locally yesterday from an elderly man for $175. Was intending to use it for a project but no way I can bring myself to alter it. I believe it's from 1965.

I mean I would keep it all original parts.
Depending on how it shoots how the trigger feels. If it belonged to me I’d probably send it to Randy for the works. It would be a real eye opener then…
I sent the barrel and bolt up to Randy at CPC. He did a beautiful job as usual. I just love the look of the jeweled bolt and target crown.
The weather hasn’t been great for target shooting since I got it back. I’m hoping I can get a break from the wind to see what’s what.
I swapped it out of its original carbine stock. I wanted to take a look at it in a stock I modified years ago. It’s a nice old walnut carbine stock I cut the end off and added a Cocobolo tip too.
I like it in both stocks…. I guess I’ll have to see if it shoots better in one or the other or if my grandson likes one better than the other…
Just for the heck of it …. I’ll ask what Y’all think looks better…
Carbine ? Or modified with tip?

I have to agree with you there buckweet...I just like the look with the curved buttplate and barrel band...same reason I like my Ruger #3
I like it in either stock… like the barrel band and like the Cocobolo tip too.
I got a little break in the weather this afternoon. Cool in the low 50s not windy just a light breeze. I took it for a test drive at a 25 yard range.
I was disappointed with its performance with Tac ammo. It was not good at all. I just opened a new brick first time I had bad luck with Tac.
I had a box of Eley Club with me and gave it a try. It shot much better …
I’m happy with its first test drive. It’s going to be a lot of fun for me and the grandkid.

I bought this 1022 in maybe 1976. Loved this rifle well for decades.
Walnut stock was normal 1022 Carbine off the rack production.
It was a lovely rifle. I got a trigger job done on it and added a 4x Bushnell
Banner 22 scope. It shot where I looked.
I taught my daughter to shoot with it, and my wife of the time along with
various friends and some of their kids.
which had belonged to my father.
shot it loved it. Lightweight and comfortable, dependable and reasonably
accurate... simply fun to shoot.

I sold this rifle in 2019 because my lady was fighting Cancer and we were moving to Tucson where her
grandson was, and I was selling pretty much everything I thought would raise some bucks. We didn't know if
we'd get hit with huge medical bills. I sold a lot of other stuff, guns, tools, fishing gear, guitars, my canoe...
Cindy sold clothes and beads... jewelry and artwork, furniture and her piano... things we didn't want to try and haul over Loveland Pass.
of the smaller shops in Tucson. I found a new rifle soon enough. This new one's got a few more mods
of course. Laminated stock from Stocky's, BX trigger, Weaver 3x9 .22 scope, JWH bolt, factory barrel nylon bolt stop.

And here's a target with a 25 yard group and three 50 yard groups shot with whatever ammo was available
in April of 2021, prolly Aguila Super Extra... we didn't have too many choices then, and it was all overpriced.
Later on, we had zero choices. It all disappeared. Millions of us bought new weapons in 2021, didn't we...

I suppose competition .22 shooters with rifles they've sunk several thousand dollars into might scoff at
my shooting here, but I was pleased with my new 1022. I marked my POA with a star for each group.
Still fun to shoot, and I really like the Stocky's laminate. It fits me much better than my old rifle.

after I'd taught him the basics on an even older Winchester Model 67A
which had belonged to my father.
If they earn the right, they can shoot my 1022. Absolutely everyone who ever
shot it loved it. Lightweight and comfortable, dependable and reasonably

Don't ever sell your 1022 or your saddle, cowboy. I began to watch sales at Sportsman's Warehouse and some
of the smaller shops in Tucson. I found a new rifle soon enough. This new one's got a few more mods
