Default Facebook ad reveals new gun shop in town. Score: Ruger MKII Stainless Standard....

Had a Facebook "pop up" ad that there were new owners of "Shirleys Market", a convenience store located about four miles from me in Sugar Grove, Virginia. In that ad/post were these pictures, revealing they put in a gun counter at Shirley's Market:





So, that was a "No Brainer" to go by and check it out. In the rifle rack, Ruger 10/22 in Mannlicher stock, Ruger 10/22 Target with hammer forged barrel, lots of hunting rifles and AR-15's. In the pistol case, Ruger MKII Standard Stainless 6" .22, blued Ruger 6" Standard .22, Smith & Wesson 642 with no lock, all priced very reasonably.

As luck would have it, my wife and I set up at the Flea Market the next day to get rid of a bunch of junk, sales from that venture freed up enough cash to go back and get the Ruger Stainless Standard 6". 1994 vintage according to the Ruger web site:



The shop owner said he gets a lot of trades in, so I imagine I'll be a frequent visitor to Shirley's Market.....

Smile S&W 622

Congratulations on that great Ruger .22lr.

I see by your pictures they have a S&W Mdl
622 .22lr, curious if you noticed the price.

Great find. Please give a Range Report when
you shoot that Ruger.

Norseman,

That 622 was gone by the time I returned to get the Ruger. I didn't examine that one so I didn't see the price.....
