So my 'new to shooting' gun-boo is looking to add something for his kids to his collection. I'm a core 10-22 fan (currently 13 in the safe) and he's caught a fancy for the S&W. I don't have one of those, but the Colt/Umarex new car smell wore off quick. It was just one gun... A Ruger is every gun in my mind. Swap a stock, 30 carbine... Swap another, MP... Swap another, integrally suppressed sub-moa tackdriver.
So he asks me my recommendation because that Smith is gonna be cheap this holiday season, and my inner fanboy wants to push my beloved 10-22 on him, (like any sane person) but I want to give him unbiased advice.
I know the tacticool look is luring, especially since it'll be instant gratification. What say you?
