Just wanted to see what everyone had to say about my collection of 22lr of every kind. I have a lot of different types from tactical to classic octagon barreled rifles and a couple of nice pistols.
Is that a 572 with a price tag on it?? I've always wanted a nice 572. That's a wonderful collection you have there SGA! What is that 1890 right below it chambered in? .22 long?
I have one just like it, not as nice as yours though. Mine needs a barrel liner and some wood, my stock is cracked badly with a horrible repair by a kitchen table gunsmith!

Mongo like. You can never have enough .22 firearms. They are cheaper to shoot and are great for practicing proper firing techniques. You might want to think about adding some .17 hmr weapons as a change of pace. I do like your collection.
depends on what I'm doing for hunting/accuracy I like my trusty ruger 10/22 or my Remington 597 but the funnest rifle to shoot is the Issc Scar Replica funnest pistol is defiantly the colt m1911 rail gun
I never understood the attraction to the 22 caliber guns. Until my first grandson was born. I only had a few 22 caliber guns for him to shoot. I had a ruger MkI & MkII. And a 10/22 only. My collection of 22's now ranges from the late 1800's to early to mid 1900's single shot, pump action rifles to h&r revolvers, s&w revolvers and colt revolvers. The grandson will be 5 yo in a few weeks. Now I understand the 22 bug. I think the 22 single shot rifles is a good place for him to start. I made it a point to make sure most rifles shoot shorts, longs & long rifle 22's.
Some of these old timers aren't cheap anymore.
My son came home from school a bout 20 years ago and said "Dad , how many 22's do you have?" I said "I don't know why do you ask?". He said "On my bed I count 37".
Give it up, Swede - I KNOW that ain't your picture....... (Besides, he's adopting ME first).
That is ONE NICE COLLECTION!!!!!!!! Is that an Erma Carbine? Those were a lot of fun, but the mags were very pricey and hard to find. My brother's shot any ammo flawlessly, but mine was picky.

Very nice collection. Thanks for sharing. So....I have a question about your AR-7. What's your opinion on the rifle? If you could give me a little more info than a one word answer I'd sure appreciate it. My daughter keeps prodding me to get one but to me it's just a little too goofy looking. I guess it's just the width of the butt that I can't get past. I understand the reason behind it but still, to me it looks strange. Almost uncomfortable. I should say that I own 2 Henrys and think they are great rifles.
We have a '90 or so vintage Charter AR-7, and when fed HV round-nose solids out of an original - as opposed to aftermarket extended - mag it functions flawlessly. We've had this rifle for a good many years, along with a handful of original mags, and no complaints at all. I believe the Henry version's receiver is grooved for scope mount rings - the original Armalite and Charter aren't. It's a pretty neat idea, but bear in mind a scoped AR receiver isn't going to fit back into the stock's storage slot, plus once you remove and then re-install the barrel you'll probably have to sight in the scope again. They're fun rifles.
