Howdy,
This is my first post here at The Highroad.org. I've lurked around long enough I figured it's about time I shared my little project.
A couple months ago I bought a new rifle, a Ruger 10/22. Since then I've been modifying it.
Here's a timeline for it.
Started with this:: factory synthetic stock and stainless steel barrel. I mounted a Tasco red dot sight I had previously used on my pistol.
Then to this with an ATI Fiberforce stock, Weaver aluminum rings and a Bushnell scope::
I didn't like the black stock so I painted it with Krylon Fusion for Plastic Hunter Green paint and added a muzzlebrake::
While I liked the look of the stock alot and it's pistol grip, I did not like the cheek placement area. It was not easy to get comfortable. So I ditched that stock and went for this one. It's a Tapco T6. It's a keeper for sure!
I drilled and mounted a sling stud on the underside so I could use my bi-pod. I had to change the scope rings for a higher set. It's a shame because I really like those aluminum rings. *sigh*
This is the latest pic with the longer SS barrel.
Total mods so far::
Tapco T6 OD Green stock
Walmart 22" Stainless Steel barrel
Weaver 10/22 "See Thru" rings
Bushnell 4-12x40 AO scope
VQ bolt buffer
VQ auto bolt release
VQ extended mag release
VQ target hammer and springs
muzzle brake <= painted it myself using Krylon black radiator paint. The original finish on it sucked.
Shooters Ridge bi-pod
Steel Lips 25 round mag
(VQ = Volquartsen) One of the top brands for aftermarket 10/22 hardware.
