A Ruger 10/22 was my very first gun I purchased when I turned 18. The only change I ever made to the original rifle was to put a Bushnell Sportview 3 x 9 on it. It has been incredibly reliable and also an excellent rifle to learn the basic fundamentals of shooting with.
This is simply not just a gun for beginners, it is very fun to shoot as well as being inexpensive.
I still have it to this day... and I'm 37. It has gained new life and continued use by my wife... she loves it too.

Longer barrel. They sold them a Wally world a while back but I guess they didn't sell many of them. I sure don't see many people with them.

Heck, you've gotta shoot that. A longer barrel without the barrel band is a good combination for accuracy. Put a scope on that with some good .22lr ammo and you've got a tack driver.
If you ever consider selling, let me know!
