this looks like it might be fun



Looking for a .22lr that the boy can shoot (and that I'd like).

It would of been a good choice for vehicle and aircraft crew.

It's for the same thing the M-1 carbine was for in WWII. That's another weapon that has been hisotircally viewed to have lackluster terminal performance.
