One of the kids brought one to SASP practice once upon a time, and it was a shit-show in terms of reliability. Might have been the mags, I don't know, but compared to the 10/22s (and 10/22 copies), it was a giant PITA.
Price?

lol so true. I picked up one at bass pro arundel mills for $260 about 3 weeks ago.. they didn't have them on display you had to ask for them.

If you do buy it, make sure to source a 3rd mag. It only comes with two, but you can store two in the stock and one in the receiver. Makes for a fun and tidy package!
My little rifle was dead-on at 25 yards, plus it is just a cool piece to have in the collection.

I was interested in grabbing one. Debating between that and an ATI Nomad 12 or 20 gauge to keep in a bag.
I love my AR-7. It works well for what it is designed for.
I have the 10/22s also. They work well for their design intent also.
You can also make a 22 hand crank Gatling gun with two 10/22s. It works well also and it very fun.
Enjoy you purchase decision and have fun.

I wonder if the pack is available separately?
BTW, the Henry version does not float, at least not for long.
The original Armalite version has a foam filled stock, so it will float for a very long time. The new versions don't have the foam filling, and the butt cap is NOT waterproof.

Yeah. I never sell or trade away guns, but would consider trading my 24 for a 42 breakdown.

Had the charter arms version.
Was a jamomatic
Did sell it for more than I paid for it.
10/22 take down or charger are the way to go.

Interesting thread... I bought a used Charter Arms version back in the '90's (?). Downsides: A "traveling zero" every time I took it down and reassembled... I think I can count on one hand the number of times I ran an entire mag without a FTF or FTE... accuracy was abysmal regardless of ammo (believe me, I tried!) Upside: it's compact and it floats...
At the time, the only 22 I owned was a Marlin-Glenfield M60... full length with a 17-shot tube magazine. I wanted something a bit more compact that I could realistically take on the trail with me... enter the AR7. It's a good concept, and obviously there's a demand, but I think the execution left a bit to be desired. Ultimately, I opted for a S&W M686 with a 4-inch barrel for trail duty. Fast forward and the .22 that occupies the "plinker" niche in my collection is.... yup... a boring Ruger 10/22. I say boring because every time I take it to the range it has held zero since the last time I shot it, feeds virtually all ammo, is acceptably accurate with most brands, and it goes bang every time I pull the trigger...
edited to add: ...Oh, and the magazines are damn near bomb-proof...

Looks like a sporty version of the M6 survival firearm.
