If you have long arms get one of these to extend the stock 1".  http://www.galatiinternational.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=GIO&Product_Code=BW07  Brownells may carry them.
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington.

I would leave it stock and get a differant one to modify.  Any changes I would make to this rifle would be fully reversible and I would keep all stock parts.  If you must tinker with this one, I would look at some of the things being done in the Superstock section of

I think I would keep it stock, being as it was your first gun and I think Ruger's were of a better quality back then. I would find something like that from my grandfather worth a lot me personally in the original condition!

I'd highly recommend creating a "Liberty Training Rifle" with it.  It becomes a great training rifle for high power shooting or good practical marksmanship.  Here's what you need:

  • a 10/22 (you already have it)
  • TechSights - an absolute must...these replicate AR15 or M1A sights.  Absolutely worth the investment
  • extended mag release - necessary to make reasonably fast mag changes
  • GI web sling - a must to learn to shoot with a sling...a lost art but really necessary if you want to REALLY learn to shoot a rifle
  • Volquartsen trigger / internals -- not necessary but really worth the cost.  Drop in components that will create a sweet trigger on your 10/22
  • Volquartsen bolt release - again not necessary but will allow you to drop the bolt simply by pulling it back
  • New stock -- again, not necessary but I wanted a new one

This is a great rifle to train with, intro new shooters, shoot an Appleseed or just plink around...and it isn't the run of the mill 10/22 but it also isn't gaudy.  The Liberty Rifle is the 5th one down in the picture below
