Can I put a scope on this gun? I don’t see a rail for it?

Logan, this has a dovetail rail. For the most versatility, I recommend adding a dovetail to picatinny rail adapter. I used this one on my plinkster >>> https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01ABW7GS0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Stay safe & have a great day!

The Mossberg 702 plinkster will have two parallel lines on top of the reciever. Slightly undercut, and 3/8ths of an inch apart. Those are for mounting a scope. There are rings made for a .22 that grip the edges of those two "dovetail" cuts. No drilling and tapping, you use a GOOD screwdriver to mount them.

Se le puede colocar un scope? Y si es así cual se le puede colocar?

Este modelo acepta monturas de alcance de 3/8, múltiples combinaciones de acabado.

I figured anything labeled "semi-auto" would be illegal in this state. Second question, would this be a good practice LR for a teenager?

Brit, yes this is California compliant and is a great rifle for a teenager to learn how to shoot with. I have a Marlin model 60 Wich is very similar and have taught kids how to shoot with it. Here's a link to Californias restrictions if interested... https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/california_restrictions.pdf

Brit, yes and yes is an accurate answer to both posed questions. In California 22lr is not considered an assault caliber and it often takes a certain combination of features to disqualify a rifle that this one passes in CA. This is an excellent trainer for a teenager. Cheers and stay safe!

Brit, being a semi-auto doesn't automatically exclude it from being CA compliant. In fact, Rimfire caliber rifles are not considered “assault weapons” and can have features that centerfire rifles cannot. Yes, the Plinkster would be a good rifle for a teenager. https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/california_restrictions.pdf ..... Have a great day!

one person said he bought two 25 round mags and they worked well. another person said rifle worked well but he wish the cartridge was longer-what longer cartridge should i buy?

The first rifle I bought from Buds and its still a family favorite! Very dependable and accurate for such a cheap 22! Can't go wrong with 22lr rifle. Also the fiber optic sights are really nice

Love this little Plinkster. I put a nice scope on it and it is dead on. Great way to keep up your shooting skills!!

Rifle works great! Not picky at all, when it comes to ammo. Easy to take apart and clean, just got to be careful with the recoil spring. Sites work well, they just look cheap and toy like to me. It's really light, which being a backpacker I really appreciate. The only real criticism I have and was a little disappointed by it was the big white lettering that reads Mossberg 702 plinkster with a copyright symbol on the side of the rifle. Kind of makes it look even more like a toy than a rabbit Slayer.

Picked this up for my son. His 8th birthday is coming up. Price was nice, and this should make a good starter for him. Going to add a scope and do some plinking myself.

Disassembled and cleaned thoroughly. I think it had more oil in it than my pickup truck. Disassembling and reassembling was a breeze! Ran a few mags of different ammo through it flawlessly! My only concern was the charging handle being loose, but once I realized that’s the way it’s supposed to be no problem! Mossberg makes a good little gun and Buds ordering and delivery was quick and easy as always!

What a fun little rifle that will not break the bank. Very glad I bought it, and do not hesitate to recommend them to anyone!
