Ever since their beginnings in 1948, the Israeli Defense Force has had to think outside the box to come up with weapon's systems, therefore it shouldn't surprise you that for the past 20 years the Israelis have used a (much-modified) 10/22 for use in both special operations and in security operations.
All described in the article, and the rifles in the photos are 10/22s modified with bull barrels. Last month their AG authorized their use against rock throwers in East Jerusalem.Javier730 wrote:According to Wikipedia, the Israeli military used 22lr for riot control in the 90s.

Im sure that will teach them rioters. I wonder how much property is saved using them 22s vs tear gas and megaphones.VMI77 wrote:All described in the article, and the rifles in the photos are 10/22s modified with bull barrels.

When I saw those barrels in the pictures I thought they were suppressed, and the article confirms that too.VMI77 wrote:All described in the article, and the rifles in the photos are 10/22s modified with bull barrels.
