This Thompson/Center 22 Classic is without doubt, the finest 22 caliber semi-auto rifle I have ever shot. If you can have only one 22 rifle, make it a TC 22 Classic.

4 pounds, 5 ounces The T/CR22 comes with a green fiber-optic front sight. The T/CR22 weighs 4 pounds, 5 ounces, which is fairly lightweight for this type of gun. The light weight is the result of the fully machined 6061 aluminum receiver, the slim barrel, and the synthetic stock.

It weighed almost 10 pounds (4.5 kg) empty and fired . 45-calibre ammunition. The magazine was either a circular drum that held 50 or 100 rounds or a box that held 20 or 30 rounds. Many of the infantry rifles employed during World War I boasted superb accuracy at long range.

The top-break single-shot Thompson/Center Contender pistol was manufactured from 1967 through 2000. It was a favorite among handgun hunters and silhouette shooters, and in the gun press it was often referred to as multiple guns in one because of its interchangeable barrel system.

22 Rifle is a series of magazine-fed bolt-action rimfire repeating rifles manufactured by the Czech firearms manufacturer Česká Zbrojovka Uherský Brod (abbreviated "CZ-UB", English: Czech Weapons Factory - Uherský Brod) and imported into the United States by CZ-USA.

During World War II, a full metal jacket bullet version of the . 22 LR was developed as the T-42 for the suppressed High Standard HDM pistol. The US Army Air Corps procured the Savage Model 24 . 22 LR/.

Its versatility, accuracy, and astoundingly fast firing rate made it as famous an accessory to prohibition-era gangsters as a three-piece pinstripe suit and goofy accent. Those same great features also made it a favorite among police and federal agents.

The full name of the gun, The Thompson Submachine Gun, or just the Thompson Machine Gun, is based on its creator, John T. Thompson.

The . 22 LR is effective to 150 yd (140 m), though practical ranges tend to be less. After 150 yd, the ballistics of the round are such that it will be difficult to compensate for the large "drop".
