I've been hunting for a new or used older Ruger 10/22 for a while now. After hearing what alot of people had to say about the new ones with the plastic parts, I wanted something built back when they were "better quality".
Tonight I was in my local gun store and they had one for $199.95 plus tax.
It looks like it had thousands of rounds put threw it. OK, not really a big deal for a .22LR, I put 500+ threw in a range trip.
One thing I noticed though, if I grabbed a hold of the trigger guard, it had play in it like whoa. It has side to side slop and back and forth slop. It felt at though the pins holding it in here too small or the holes were enlarged.
Is this a big deal? The action seemed sold.
Thoughts? This is the first 10/22 I've seen locally in a year or so that still had the metal trigger housing.
