I like how he said he hasn't bought a new gun since the fall and has an itch.. You mean you haven't bought a gun in two months?
Be cool on the 10/22 also.Throwing 500 bucks into a 10/22 is like spraying perfume on a pig. Waste of time and money. You will never get your money back and it is pretty hard to get much more out of a 10/22.
Two things said that really surprised me were... learning to deal with recoil. From a 9mm? Are you kidding me? If recoil from a 9mm is something you need to learn to deal with, you might want to stick to 22's and airsoft. Unless you are a 10 year old girl or an 80 year old woman, 9mm is about as soft as recoil gets. Maybe take up archery.
The second was " everybody flinches". Yeah no. I might jerk the trigger if I am not paying attention, but I am not flinching. Like Supermoto says, flinching is mental. It is in your head. Just don't flinch.
I would spend that 5 hundo on this. You will be the coolest kid at the range with this on your 320
Plus you might feel better shooting that .20 cent per round stuff through it when you build gets close to 1k or moreNo, you won't get your money back on a 10/22 build. But perfume on a pig? What other sub-MOA semi-auto options are available for 22LR at a similar price point as a 'built' 10/22?
OP didn't state he had a flinching issue, yet many comments seem to be directing him to work on it. Kinda weird.
$500 would make the 10/22 much more enjoyable. Stock $125. Trigger $100-200. Scope and rings $150.
I will say, loading a revolver with random shells was one of the training aids I was told would help with flinch.
Load a 357 revolver with empty chamber, 38 special, and full magnum loads, then spin the cylinder.
everyone flinches. people that say they don't are delusional and in denial. how about just loading up the ole revolver and enjoy shooting it.
