I've never really shot a gun in my life, but like a lot of things, maybe I'd like to try it.
I have a very old Ruger (yes, it's a 22) that my wife inherited from her dad.
It hasn't been shot or cleaned in over 30 years.
My wife and I actually took it to the Fairfax County Police station in Sully who checked it AND DISCOVERED IT WAS LOADED

I live and work in Centreville and Fairfax.
Anybody know of a good place where I can get it cleaned and checked?
Anybody think it would be a good gun to learn with?

Blue Ridge Arsenal in Chantilly should be able to help you. If the gun functions properly it should be a good little plinker. Accurate and .22lr is cheap.

I'd also read over the manual if you still have it (available online here: http://www.ruger.com/products/_manuals/markI.pdf) to familiarize yourself with the function and all of the safety aspects of course.

Thats an old gun right there, I think it'd be gun to get your fundamentals of marksmanship up to speed, but eventually I'd go with something more modern.

Sad thing is I haven't even bought one yet and I'm already like, "Man, it'd be cool to have a SPR too..."

Do it, Do it, you know you want to.

If it's a range gun, the SPR will be more accurate over long distance.

No point having a short carbine, unless you plan on doing urban combat, building/room clearance, or home defence LOL

And honestly an AR would not be my first choice for home defense.

My girfriend just got that invite from Amex last week

Agreed. Nothing wrong with cleaning a weapon. There's no downside. They can't be over-cleaned.

Mac, any thoughts on Palmetto State Armory's stuff?

Unfortunately in NOVA all we have are indoor ranges, maximum 50 yards, so an SPR wouldn't see much real use unless I went a ways south to get to an outdoor range. That's why I would do something like that second.
