Buy recommendations Need advice on .22lr

Hey everyone I am planning to buy my first .22lr. I have narrowed down my list to Ruger 10/22, Ruger American.22 lr and Savage Mark 2. I am afraid to buy a semi auto as they might just ban it. I need some help with choosing the best out of three. If you have any other better recommendations within same budget please let me know.

10/22.

If they wanted to they probably would have already.

Nobody knows what will happen in the future. Dump those mags while u still can

There are probably millions of 10/22 in Canada as they've existed since the 60s as varmint rifles. I know things are grim here right now but I cannot see these being banned in the foreseeable future as there is just absolutely no way to enforce confiscating them. Just my 2 cents

As much as I hope you are right - you are expecting these people to be rational.

We have never seen rationality from these people.
