Transformed 10/22
« on: July 12, 2008, 03:23:47 PM »
It may not be a real "tactical rifle" but I thought this was the most appropriate place to post it.
Well, I tricked out the old 10/22 with a Butler Creek Stock and a red dot.  I like it!

I have seen several conversion kits for the 10/22.  I have also been scouring pawn and gun shops with the hope of finding a slighty used one to throw in to a conversion stock.  I think I am just going to have to bite the bullet and get a new one.  Looks fun (and inexpensive).

Looks good Gunman! Love that folding stock. Consider a lever style extended mag release. With the pistol grip stock you wont have to shift your grip to drop a mag ;)

I "bit the bullet" and bought a new black and stainless version, put on a variable scope,and  have a ball with it...

BUT, I too want to "find" a slightly used one and throw the full monty conversion package on it.

Nice setup gunman, if barack gets elected, its on the ban list too. :P

It is actually smaller than the original stock.  It is also quite a bit lighter.  It really changes the way the gun handles so much.  I put off buying one for years, but figured I better go ahead in case Obama gets in.

Mine has flash hider/compensator, but otherwise looks just like that. I plan on putting a bayonet lug on it some day, not because I need one, but because it's not politically correct.  :)

OK, I had to show this. Crappy picture, but this is a stock for a 10/22 to let the wee laddie think it is a big, nasty, MG-42. I love this, may have to get one.

And I did get my 10/22 from a pawnshop.
