This is the new VTR 597. Sure is a nifty little old 22 LR. Dale

Not something I'd want.  It looks like a black rifle.

My first thought is that the 10/22 is still king

I agree.  Some folks will get one and think they are Rambo.

There have been kits to give the the Ruger 10/22 the AR look for a long time. If I wanted an AR22, I'd get the 10/22 kit from Nordic:



The new Rem looks like a solid unit though.

Sad that he had to show up at all.

I must agree that I personally would have no use for one but I can see how some would. Good for remington, the more black rifles out there the better. Lets make Obama real mad.  ;D
