gubby_uk Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 I am looking for a new .22. What I would like is a semi auto that I can lock the breech on and use as a bolt action. Can anyone think of a good one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldrick Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 You can cycle the bolt on any semi-auto manually, as you know. But why on earth would you want to do that? You get no primary extraction advantage. Just buy a CZ 452 and have done with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommo Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 I'm with Baldrick mate, Go with one or t'other though- Too much to go wrong when your out in the dark and something sticks/jams wont work -- my preference is my Bolt Action BrNO Model 2 - So simple and a doddle in the dark, both species have their advantages as i'm sure you know - besides these types of guns are that cheap you could get both and work it out from there then flog the one that seems to have been left in the cabinet (and if you buy right you wont loose on money).

A Sick Old Man Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 This can be done, a Ruger 10/22 can be fitted with a JG Bolt lock which is a plate that fits into the trigger housing that enables you to switch modes. I have one and its handy for me, but its fiddley. But I would take the advice of the Sages on this forum if I where you, 10/22's are regarded as the Devils Breath by most people, stick with a CZ, cheap, accurate, and with a trigger kit nice and sweet.

lapwing Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Go for a bolt action CZ. I've had a .22 bolt BRNO for over 20 years; no problems with it at all and no temptation to keep pinging away until the magazine is empty. Cycling the bolt becomes second nature. If you get 10 round mags keep them to 9 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
