Scorpio 22, for such a cheap little gun, they are awesome. Bought the long barreled one for my boy to use and its great. Hitting cans at 100 yards with the iron sights out of the box even. Thinking I might actually buy the short version now too.

How do you like that Scorpio 22LR? I bought a long barreled one on sale locally for $175 for my boy to use and its a great little 22 for the price.
We were shooting CCI quiet segmented out of it and hitting cans at 100 yard straight out of the box with the iron sites even. But the best thing is with those quiets, you literally barely hear anything other than the firing pin strike and the bullet hit the target. Wife was sitting at the camper about 100 yards from my friends private range and didn't even think we were shooting. I'll be buying some more of those CCI whenever I find them, as we could shoot for hours without my wife asking are you guys done yet......are you guys going to give it a rest soon lol

I had a similar experience with this scorpion; whatever I threw at it, it took like a champ. I paid $200 for this!

u/Additional_Fold_1350 Jun 12 '26
Yeah they are great little guns. Im debating grabbing the 13.5" barreled version too. But do I really need another 22LR so similar to what I have, probably not. Might just buy one of those Henry pack guns instead.

Adler is next on my list. How do you find yours? I find its hit or miss - but as long as you run hot ammo through it shes fine.

It's easy to jump to conclusions about others.

u/DougMacRay617 Jun 08 '26
What are you talking about? You posted previously with a terribly placed red dot on that shotgun, you clearly learned your lesson and removed it like so many recommended

u/AluminumGold Jun 08 '26
It was explicitly mentioned in my post that the red dot is temporary. But no hard feelings man. Cheers.

On the bright side you get to hand them all over to retired cops for nothing. I wonder if they could log pictures, use some kind of location data, tie it to a service provider. I bet AI could do that, put you in the system for future prosecution. Or maybe they just send them off to a nice farm in ukraine.

None of these are new prohibs? As much as I think posting your banned rifles is a stupid idea, not posting anything at all on the off chance that bolt actions are banned in the future is also kind of silly to me 🤷♂️

How many times have you been shooting?
Cause it looks like youre addicted to shopping. Not the hobby.

Everyone told me "welcome to your new addiction" when I got my license. I laughed it off as a joke.
Cut to me buying 5 guns in 2 months post PAL lol
