I like having this little guy in the truck with me. It now wears a 3x9 scope. Being a takedown it requires very little space. 500 rounds in a crown royal bag takes up no room at all. And I have fed the wife and myself many a delicious cotton tail dinner with it.
What brand is that? I love those take down .22s. Growing up we had a Chinese copy of one of those. It's still in the family actually, my brother took possession of it and it's still used to knock out pests around his ranch.

It is a browning sa-22. It’s a little tack driver. Absolutely love it.

I built a rack to carry in the rear of my 4Runner.
Nice, clean and functional install. How heavy is the cross bar and is it bolted to metal or fiberglass. It looks sturdy though.

I built the crossbar out of 3/4" square tubing and anchored it at the coat hooks with the original bolts. It is very solid and doesn't move at all.

I carry every day.
Never leave home without at least one firearm unless I’m flying or leaving the country.
Currently have my WA and UT CPLs so I’m covered to legally conceal in a number of states

I just submitted my paperwork for my Utah CFP so I can CC in the states I normally camp in (Virginia and West Virginia). Of course, Maryland (home) doesn't honor this, so I'll have to transport out of the state unloaded and secured. I'm going to carry a Glock 29 loaded with 10mm Buffalo Bore 220 Grain Outdoorsman, for bear but also any 2-legged predators.

Wife and I both have Va CCW, and take it seriously wherever we go. We also won't go where any of our tools, that due to some arbitrary and foolish definition are deemed illegal.

I have a CHL in TX and we have a hog problem here. Every day in my rig I have my CZ 9mm. When I'm hitting the woods I upgrade to my 1911 with some hot ammo, mostly for the hogs. I also keep a 12 gauge around camp with buckshot and a collection of shells in a bag. When I'm just on the road I'll throw my 10-22 takedown in the back,and that one is just as much for fun if I find a good safe spot

I don’t carry - don’t see the need‍♂
Many animals that could take me on out where I go. My firearms is the last resort, but I would prefer to have it than to fight a bear, coyote or wolf. I know all three of those I will lose if it comes down to hand to hand.
