You've been good ever since you registered. I just personally like somebody that is going to exchange ideas with me to intro themselves so I have a base of understanding or a starting point. Not meant to offend.

I rarely take offense at anything....and hadn't even noticed that forum til you mentioned it. I'm sure we will have plent of entertaining information passed through
Actually it was a 10-22 that was seriously modified that led to the introduction of the 10-22M. If I remember correctly the bolt had to be shortened in order to get enough rearward movement to chamber the next round. Extra springs were added so the bolt wouldn't beat the reciever to death. A weight was added forward of the reciever and attached to the bolt to give the bolt more mass. the barrel was either rechambered or a .22mag barrel from a Marlin was used, can't remember which. Lastly the reciever was radically cut open to make it all work. It really was a Frankenstien monster. The 10-22m is considerably heavier than the 10-22, at least it feels that way, so i can't wait to get a carbonfiber barrel for it.
That would be my model 94 30/30. best gun I own IMHO of course. but im partial and bias LOL.

Then there was the Ruger 4/44 that held 4 .44 Magnum rounds. It was built along the same lines as the 10/22, but handles the .44 Mag.. The idea was, I believe, to have a rifle that used the same ammo as the handgun you might carry.

That would be the Ruger M44 Deerfield carbine .44 magnum. It has Rugers detachable rotary magazine. It is an updated version of the Deerstalker carbine introduced in 1959 or 1960 which had a tubular magazine.
I own two .44 magnum lever action carbines. One is a model 92 Winchester the other is a model 94 winchester. Two very sweet guns!

1. If it's in your kit and you don't know how to use it....It's useless.
2. If you can't reach your kit when you need it....Its useless.
