CMP has lots of surplus training 22s

As a kid back in the early 1990s, we had some two dozen well-loved and only-shot-on-Friday Remington 40X and Mossberg 42 rimfire training rifles in our armory at Pascagoula High School’s NJROTC. After I left, the unit divested them in lieu of air guns, as did hundreds of other ROTCs around the country.

Those guns, along with those of unit marksmanship detachments, Rod & Gun Club rental counters, and MWR units, have filtered back to CMP over the years and are stacking up.

From CMP’s current offerings, all of which include a 500-round brick of surplus 22LR:

R22M40XNS Remington .22 single shot target rifle used by both military and civilians. These rifles were mostly used by shooting teams and ROTC units. They may come with either heavy or tapered barrels no distinction is made in pricing or selection. These rifles have been inspected, function fired and sold with no guarantee of accuracy. Rifles are normally in good to very good condition but may show minor pitting and wear from usage and storage. No sights. Available

R22M52B The Winchester 52B is a bolt action magazine fed 22lr. It was one of the first modern 22 target rifles often called “King of the .22s”.
