Thread: Rimfire pic thread.

  1. #1

    Rimfire pic thread.

    I could not find one, so I figured I would get the ball rolling.

    If there is one, then I apologize for being a tard.

    Shown is my old school Colt Huntsman. I consider the old Huntsman/Woodsman series to be true "sleepers" of the rimfire semi auto world. They are rather nicely balanced, accurate enough to head shoot bunnies at fair distances, and light weight enough that you don't really notice them when carried in a belt rig.

    Mine is shown along with my grandfather's Filson that he bought sometime after WWII. The Huntsman is from the same era, and they seem like a natural match. Perfect winter time companions for hunting jackrabbits hiding in the tall sage, when the snow is deep.



    Sorry for the pic quality, I am using my phone. My camera bit the dirt.


    My dad has one that he bought when he was in JR High. He tells the story of his mom going to buy it for him, and him working for a long time to earn the money for it. He has had his roughly 60 years and it still is a solid shooter.

    Good looking 22s.

    The only 22 handgun I have at present is a S&W 17-5 4". They're a hoot to shoot, I would like another 22.

    ^^^^^ That looks fantastic. Love the classic two-tone and wood grips.

    Thanks. I used to be a big lurker on RimfireCentral Forum. A guy on there was making those grip panels at the time so that 1911 grips can be attached. Very good deal and something not everyone has.

    I've spent my fair share of hours over there as well. haha. Bunch of smart dudes when it comes to the nuances of rimfire guns.

    Where did you get the stocks? I've been on the hunt for some plain black walnut stocks just like those.

    Those grips came from a Springfield Mil-spec 1911 I used to have.
