I'm going to step way out on a limb here.......



A gun?

Seriously, it looks like a Russian Tula Match rifle.

Well, I'll be a bit more bold and daring than gandog56... lol. I notice it looks similar to an SKS. Maybe a training rifle of some sort?

Of course, it could be that gandog56 is right, and it's just a random 22LR.

I blew the picture up to 400 times because it looked some what like an SKS action, but perporsioned to a 22 rifle.

It's simply the Semi-auto sister to our beloved TOZ-78 bolties. Good price for a basic sporter. The sights are far too clunky to call it a 'match rifle', and the barrel is too slender. But, I bet it'll stand right up there on the line with a box-stock Ruger 10-22.
Looks like it uses the same mags as the TOZ-78 too. Same crappy stock finish. The Russians are nothing if not predictable!

Wish the ad/page said how many rounds it holds. Might be worth getting to plink some .22lr ammo?

Or should I stick with the Ruger 10/22 with walnut stock and an 18/18.5" barrel in a near by shop for $220 + tax? Not buying it at Walmart now. Is that too much?

No, not stainless. Just blued with walnut furniture and drilled and tapped for a scope. I think this is the one here. The only thing that looks different is the front sight, but for the most part, this is the one they had for $220.00 and I see the MSRP on it is $261.00.
Ruger 10/22AutoloadingRifle (10/22RB) Overview And not even walnut, just hardwood according to the Ruger site.

Ya' know what gets me about this shop, I've done business with him. I just don;t get the greeting I think I should when i haven't seen him in a while or even if i have for what I've spent there ya' know. I mean I'm not wanting my A$$ kissed or anything special but a smile and hey, how you been would be nice. It makes me want to go elsewhere. So I'm already pricing it elsewhere. Just wanted to know what the helpful and friendly people here thought.

If it uses the same magazine as the TOZ-78 (looks like it) you should get two 5-rounders and two 10-rounders. They are plastic, but pretty robust.

From everything I have read about them, they do use the same mags as the toz-78. And I totally agre bigdog, they feel really cheesy and plastic, but mine have held up great as well!
