.22 automatic rifle with stock hole feed
Do they still make automatic .22 rifles where you load them through the hole in the stock? I know Browning makes an automatic like this, but I waswondering if any other gun manufacturers still produced guns like this.My grandfather has an old Winchester 74 that is old as dirt, and I would love to get one of these brand new.
Thanks for the help

I think norinco or something makes a copy of the browning take down model that feeds thru the stock. I know its some sort of import. I think it has a bottom eject too. Iiick, I don't like those very much.

Taurus makes a copy of the venerable Winchester Model 63.
The original 63 was a sweet machine. My dad has one in wonderful condition,....nice little break-down semi-auto.
I haven't seen, held, or shot the Taurus knock-off but have read it is a decent firearm.

Paul is correct Norinco makes a 22 ATD which loads through the butt. I have one i got when i was 7 and wouldnt trade it. it also makes a good truck gun because its small and pretty light and also good for teaching a yougin how to shoot just beware the spent cases eject out the bottom and hurt if they hit your wrist.
