Ok guys, I remember seeing something about a gun that shoots 22 short, 22 long and 22 LR.

 

Can anybody direct me - and no, I don't remember whether it was a hg or a rifle.

 

Thanks!

A revolver might be your best bet, or a bolt action rifle. No semi-auto could reliably cycle all 3.

That's what I'm thinking that it was a bolt action, but I can't find it...

 

AHH HA! - it's in one of my gun mags at home. Might be Remington.

 

Got it! Remington

 

The Model 552 BDL Speedmaster is the only American-made 22 autoloader that handles 22 short, 22 long, and 22 long-rifle cartridges interchangeably. Like its pump-action counterpart, it features adjustable big-game sights, positive cross-bolt safety and grooved receiver for scope mounts.

 

Opinions anyone??

One of the most popular guns out there, Marlin 39a shoots 22 short, long or long rifle.

In handguns the Ruger single six convertible comes with 2 cylinders 22lr and 22 magnum.

Is the 39A NJ legal? It can hold 19 rds...

The rules only apply to semi-autos. You can cram as much as you want into a lever or bolt or pump.

a lot of .22 rifles can shoot 22 long, short & LR.....many older ones I see are marked as such.

Local shop up here has several used Remington 552's on the rack. But I rarely see anything other than 22lr on the dealers shelve so it may not be worth the cost. It's a nice looking rifle but not that cheap.

 

Look into the Henry lever. I've seen several on the line and they are nice.

my understanding is that 22short is legal for certain hunting in nj, others are not?

If i remeber right you can use a 22 for trapping and coon hunting.

Handy if you have a time machine to transport you back to the 50's.

You can carry a 22 to dispatch trapped animals, but I think you also need a hunting license and rifle permit. It is NJ, you have to pay for something else. Even if I am wrong there has to be something else they charge you for.
