mkaml4868 Report post Posted February 7, 2013 I am looking for a .22 rifle, bolt action to help my kiddos get comfortable with shooting. Any suggestions where, or any for sale by anyone here? I dont need anything fancy, but would like a good quality gun...i have a bunch of kids it has to outlast. 7 last time I counted Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
More D Report post Posted February 7, 2013 Try the Cub. They are single shot so the kids actually learn to shot. The LOP is nice and short. I would stay away from the Cricket. The safety is not like on an adult rifle so it is harder to transition later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

COUESAZ Report post Posted February 7, 2013 Any Marlin bolt action will work for a lifetime of kids. They make one of the best youth rifles you can get your hands on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mkaml4868 Report post Posted February 8, 2013 thanks for the help, any good used gun stores or shops to look into? I visit Tucson and Mesa so help narrowing it down is great. I usually only have time for one or two places max. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
