ruger's patents must be up on the 10/22 because there sure are a plethora of copycats springing up all of a sudden. the way I see it, it's a 10/22... only it's a 10/22 that's not built by a company that's been building them for decades. instead it's a 10/22 built by a company that has no experience building them before. for an extra $40 you could get a Ruger 10/22 so why waste the money on a copycat?

also, the mags do not look like ruger type mags, they look proprietary so in the end the costs would even out after buying a couple extra mags.
