.22LR suggestions for youth

[freedom]

if you go with the 10/22 there are probably 100 different stocks available for it, maybe 20 different barrels, 5 or 6 trigger assemblies, etc. etc.

You can spend $200 on a basic 10/22 or you can buy a "aftermarket" everything and spend $1500 on a "10/22". buy the basic 10/22 and then spend some money on upgrades or changes to fit the kid.

My 7 year old daughter is showing some interest, been looking for a deal on a Crickett or Rascal but will take her somewhere and see how the LOP is on those, or if I should just get her a different stock for one of my 10/22's.

So many people change out the stocks, a new take off stock can be found easily and cheaply. Measure it to your kid and cut it exactly where it needs it. You can cut and glue a mouse pad on it for comfort. And it's easy to keep adding back 1/2" of stock as they grow up.

Do you have an AR with collapsible stock?

10/22 with Tech Sights would be very hard to beat.

Savage Rascal for the 6 year old.
Ruger American or Ruger 10/22 for the 15 year old

or if you have an AR with adjustable stock, a CMMG 22LR kit would be good for either.
