I wish I'd bought a bunch of those when the prices dropped like a rock after the ban expired.:( I could close to double my money now. But it's not only the AR's that are more expensive, it seems like everything has skyrocketed, standard 10/22 carbines going for close to $300 new!

It wasn't wall mart, first one was purchased at a department store that is now out of business and the second was purchased at a local gun shop.


Edit: Ahh, I see what you mean from the Wiki... Mine is the 20" "Rifle" version, not the Walmart exclusive 22".
