    Default Youth semi auto .22lr?

    Any suggestions on a shorter .22lr for 11 year old. My kid likes to shoot but has trouble with the length. I need a suggestion.

    If going the 10/22 route look at the blackhawk stock, worked well for my kids when they were small and still works for me.

    if he's competent and you're comfortable with a semi why not one of the AR 22 variants?

    10/22 come in a youth model if you want a factory rifle. My 8 year old shoots an ar22 bc of the adjustable stock.

    Chop the stock of a 10/22.

    As mentioned before, one of the AR type of 22 lr. rifles with an adjustable stock. Adjust it to fit now, and extend it as the child grows.
    Besides, the cool factor of the AR look will win the child over and make any libitard sh*t them selves. Just don't let the child take any pictures of himself shooting to school, due to the "Zero Tolerance" and no common sense policies nowadays.
    My T.P. wheeling and dealing feedback is here.

    Savage 64 is a great option for under 150. The 13" LOP maybe long tho.

    It's a measure of the civility in this country that no ones seems to fear constantly pissing off the people who own lots of guns.

    My daughter who is the same age started out on a 10/22. Granted she was about 6 when she started so it wouldn't fit her at all but she grew into it. Now she is shooting my AR's but still likes the 10/22.

    If I was buying a gun for a new shooter I would take them to the gun store and let them pick out what they think is cool.
