When I was a kid my dad had a M152. I thought it was the coolest rifle in the house because it looked “military”. . It was amazingly accurate and it was the only .22 we had that was used for hunting only. It shot .22 LR only and those long rifle shells were too expensive for plinking. We had others that would shoot .22 short and those were the “fun” guns. My brother ended up with that gun, as he did most all of my dad’s guns.

Several years ago, I was at a gun show and saw a M152. I remember haggling to the point I got it for $117.50. Mine shoots every bit as well as my dad’s. Both have 7 shot magazines and wooden fold down forearms.
Funny to see this post. I hadn’t shot mine in several years, and just yesterday got it out and ran a couple magazines through it.

I thought my dad said he got his during WW2 but I could be wrong on that.
