1022's also make great project guns. They are very easy to work on and after market accessories abound. I acquired this one some years ago that had a bent barrel. I took it on as a project and stripped it down and rebuilt it and I think the receiver and the bolt are the only original parts. I put a 16 inch threaded heavy barrel and it is a tack driver.
The project gun was intended to be set up as a squirrel slayer but I have to admit I've not taken the first squirrel with it yet. Seems my youngest son as taken loan of it and he regularly comes in with a mess of bushy tails.
