I would like to see the Ruger 96 Lever action come back.
It was built for 13 in 22lr 22mag and 17HMR. 
 I have gone back to a bolt action from the semi, but there is just something about the cool factor of a lever gun.

I've been looking for a decent lever action .22 for a couple years and finally recently decided to just get a Ruger bolt action (I posted a couple weeks ago about that - a Precision Rimfire). Finally going to get that rifle out this Saturday to shoot it now that it has a scope on it. I checked out those Henry .22's, but didn't like the way they are made. The basic one has a painted receiver (yuck) and the Golden Boy has a Brass colored cover over the actual receiver, which looks like some cheap alloy. If Ruger remakes the Marlin 39 right, I'd probably buy one.
Come and take it.

I was recently given a Win 9422M by my BIL out of my FIL's collection.Has very nice wood and still has the hood for the front sight.

My Brother has A 9422M I have been on the fence on buying one for Bobcat for the last 20 years. Back when they were $500 they just kept going up and Up and Up should have bought one way back then.
