Had this one for about 30 years and except for the scope it remains as issued. Never felt the need for doodads and such.

Besides, it seems to shoot OK as is... Two 5 round groups at 50 yards rapid fire.

If I had a stock carbine that shot like that, I wouldn't change anything either. Most folks have to install a new barrel to get accuracy like that. Most of these guns don't shoot that well.

Well, it's like this: I am going to an auctioneering course at Harrisburg Area Community College, and that cost money and lots of it. Soooo, yea I guess I am.

This is my beloved 1984 Ruger 10/22. It was my first firearm, purchased from a pawn shop in Seattle the day after my 18th birthday for $60, in 1987. All the 10/22s I'd seen to that point had either dark stained stocks or had been tacticooled out with a bunch of plastic crap and I wanted something different. I went looking specifically for a rifle whose barrel and receiver were in good shape with a beat up stock I could refinish - to save money. You can't really tell in the pic but I re-shaped the stock a bit while sanding the dents out and rounded off all the edges. Then I bedded the barrel into the stock using a kit from Gander Mountain followed by about ten coats of Tru-Oil. I re-shaped and polished the trigger, de-burred and smoothed every moving part, and mounted a Bushnell 2.5-10x scope. I installed a Ram-Line extended mag release and a stainless butt plate, it's otherwise 100% original parts. I did this in the weeks following it's purchase and have never had reason to modify it further. I don't know how many tens of thousands of rounds have been through it but it still shoots groups the size of a dime at 50 yards with decent ammo. :)
 
I am another one of those people who leaves off the tacticool stuff. The background pictured rifle is the 10/22. Not sure why the scope was off when I took the picture. :) Just a plain Jane rifle that shoots just fine.

This is from too much hanging out at rimfirecentral.
What started out as a stock 10/22, purchased around 1975, that I had intended to only accurize a bit. When finished there were no Ruger parts left. I had even replaced the receiver with a VQ SuperLite as after buying all the internal VQ parts I decided they deserved a tighter home than the original Ruger receiver.
