10/22 mods

I'm sure it's a ton of fun.

Lots of you tube videos on the 10-22.  My son and I both modified our stock triggers and auto bolt release ourselves by watching a video about it.   Figured the worse we could do was screw it up and have to buy a new trigger.   Anyway,  they work great and are a ton better than the stock trigger.   That was the free part. The most fun had been going to an apple seed shoot as said earlier.  They are a great experience for a single or a family.   My son and I both made rifleman.

I have Brocks in Spokane putting in a new trigger Assembly, $139 for the parts, and they are putting sling mounts on it as well. Thought about glass bedding the barrel but it is a stainless barrel and synthetic stock so not sure if it would even really work. Will probably at least wait and see how it shoots. Never even fired it yet.  By the way, i always run a patch through the barrel and was totally shocked at how dirty it was. New off the shelf from Bi Mart.

Lots of crap in my new E.R.Shaw barrel when I ran a patch through it, too.  New barrels are always full of junk...

-Larger (light wieght) Bolt Charging Handle
and
-Larger Mag. Release

Dang, just when i think i am done i find something else, the Volquartzen Tensioned Carbon fiber barrel with forward blow compensator in stainless, and the Rm4 stock.  They have a fitting block for the barrel with closer tolerances too. The final thing may be a new bolt and slide. Income tax time come on.  Now i am going to start having a bunch of parts left over. I will have to think of getting a new receiver, as it goes on and on and on. lol

That's why I decided not to start with a Ruger gun.  I figured by the time I got done there wouldn't be much left of the Ruger anyway.  I got all the action and parts from Tactical Innovations, the barrel from E.R. Shaw, and the stock from Boyds.  The only thing that has the Ruger logo on it is the magazine!

The 10-22 has been around so long that you can build a whole gun from aftermarket parts, and use virtually none of the original gun.  The magazines are still the best, though.  I first shot a Ruger 10-22 in 1965! I'm looking forward to a Ground Squirrel shoot with my latest creation!

by the end of Feb i will have a ton of extra parts, any good suggestions or does anyone need anything that will be coming off.  Open to trades or whatever, just like to either put it to use or have someone else put it to use
