Hey all,

Just wondering what kind of things people have done to 10/22s around here. It seems like there are a lot of things that people have come up with, even full-auto conversions.

Here's mine:

Wacky!

Hows that 50 round drum working out for you? Is it reliable?


I've been kicking around doing one of these http://www.rhinelandarms.com/

It's the subzero kit. I think it would be real fun but also cheap to shoot. Might have a practical application of some kind too but not sure were.

Wow that's quite a stock. I like how mine can be like that, as well as very accurate. I like how I can fold the shoulder piece thingy up so I can shoot it without unfolding the stock.

As far as the drum, I threw it in the garbage yesterday :cuss: :banghead: :mad: :fire:

The first 50 I shot all went through great, but then it started declining and finally stuff started breaking and stuff. Finally it got to the point where I could no longer use it due to all the broken parts. I would not recommend. I am getting on of these (http://www.tacticalinc.com/ti25-advanced-composite-steel-magazine-ruger-1022-p-532.html) mags in the mail, should be here in a couple days. I am also going to try a BC mag...we'll see what I come up with.

hhahaha

i thought "hmmmm nice squirrel gun...i wonder how many he's gotten"

then i saw the disclaimer:neener:

[jthuang]

Yeah it is illegal to hunt with a semi-auto here in PA. So no squirrels bagged with this gun (yet). :)

Arbor what stock is that?

[hksw]

What kind of groups are you getting with that, Arbor?

What kind of mods (other than the stock)?

[Arbor]

I get the bestest groups :D

10-in-1 hole at 50 yards is about what I get, with the bipod and scope.

The stock is made by Ramline, pre-ban, and is hard to find. I got it on eBay for $50. Now they make it so you can't fold the shoulder piece in so it's hard to shoot with the stock folded.

All my mods:

Stock
Bipod
3x9 scope
Extended mag release


I think that's it...

While a pretty standard 10/22 customization, my son is sufficiently proud of what we did to his over the weekend that I promised to show it off here for him:

I tried to talk him into a more subdued color for the stock, but blue is his color and he wanted to go a little sporty with the look. From a functional improvement perspective, the gun is now as light as a feather owing to the Boyd's "Barracuda" stock and the Tactical Solutions 16.5" bull barrel, which is machined aluminum around a chrome moly liner. We also added TS' extended magazine release (a great addition that makes the mag incredibly easy to remove, but not prone to accidental removal) as well as a synthetic bolt buffer and a color-keyed extended bolt handle and recoil rod assembly.

The thing is fun as all get-out to shoot, and is at least as accurate as it was originally (his first hunting trip he cleanly took a squirrel from ~60 yds. with his very first shot.)

But the best part of the mod? The fact that I now have his old stock and stainless barrel that I can buy a receiver, bolt & trigger guard assembly for without the wife accusing me of buying a whole new gun, and still end up with a 10/22 of my own ;)
