‘Common Sense Gun Laws’: Obama’s Attack on the Second Amendment
One of My Own,
My question is what you are planning to do with your Rugar Mark III? $175 would be a good price for that unit, providing it is in decent condition. I did not own a .22 caliber Ruger and I can’t vouch for it. But you have selected a fine little plinking gun that no person in their right mind would use to commit a violent crime. It would take several half decent hits just to bring down a good size man, so it would make a lousy defense gun. Of course, if you have sniper skills, a well placed shot of any caliber would work. A .22 revolver is not a very good camp gun, because it can’t stop a bear or mountain lion, but a couple of rounds can stop a coyote or a dad gum racoon. Target shooting would be fun with it, but you wouldn’t win too many competitions with it because serious target shooters usually have guns which would cost much more than $175, because of the need for custom barreling. So, I have to think you got it for plinking. By the way, the Rugar Mark II was a classic .22 caliber target gun in its day. Take your new gun out and practice with it and I will assure you that you will soon be hooked on firearms. My first gun was a (oops, that has become classified information).
