My choice would be:
BSA Sportsman. Lovely accurate British classic rifle. Great lightweight bunny-basher.
or
M1 Carbine clone. Just because I love the look of them.

How about an AR7?
Take down and stores barrel and receiver in the butt with 2 mags. It floats and can be packed in a small rucksack with the picnic.
Arming the Country, one gun at a time.

Good deals with Paul101, Charlotte the flyer, majordisorder, Charlie Muggins, among others. Thanks everybody.

Badger,

Check out Stonehenge Arms web-site.

They have an interesting Beretta dual action .22 rifle made in the 1950's

If you leave the bolt handle in the horizontal position, it is a semi-auto, alternatively, you can use the rifle as a bolt action in the normal way

A dealer buddy has one and I had a lot of fun firing it. The one I fired had a 25 round detachable mag.

It was a well made reliable, quirky little rifle.

You ain't kidding there - I'm still drooling over a 6.5mm Mannlicher-Schönauer I saw there, exactly the same model as the one I should never have sold.

I noticed a pump action BSA on the Stonhenge site. I have had one of these for many years: it always works flawlessly and is very accurate.
