Kelly, congrats on your new gift. I have lots of guns & I shoot my 15-22 more than any. If you don't want to spend too much money, stay away from discussions regarding suppressors & shortening the barrel to make a SBR. I fell prey to that sickness but danged if it doesn't make an incredible gun.
Regarding the toy issue, curious if y'all consider all your guns toys or just the 15-22? Would you call my 300 Blackout AR a toy? My Sig 9mms? Maybe I'm old school but I don't call any firearm a toy. I can't imagine being around young shooters & calling any gun a toy. But then again, I cringe when I see folks call a magazine a clip.
