Got one but no pic of it yet.

I've got a Choate pistol grip stock, and a flash hider on it. The flash hider doesn't do anything, it just looks neat and makes the barrel look a few inches longer. I bought the gun when I was in the 8th grade.

new pic with the .22LR on top and the .17HMR2 on the bottom.
Top is the RB Precision revolution stock with Volquartsen trigger group and Ruger 10/22T barrel.
Bottom is Volqartsen VX-200 stock, .17HMR2 barrel and bolt.

Got mine when I was ten, had it for half my life now. No gun collection is complete without one.

perhaps.........

Had the folder for 20+ years, the other is vintage 1966.

Yes. And the stock trigger sucks.

My only complaint.

What really sucks is the stock barrel.Put a quick 50 rds down the barrel,let it heat up and God only knows where your zero is.I put a fluted bull barrel on mine and I can shoot all day with the same zero.

Considering the easy availability of parts/upgrades,ammo and how versatile the .22LR can be it might be the perfect SHTF rifle.You can hunt rabbits with it,poach deer(remember SHTF,I'm thinking of shining at night),carry a shitload of ammo and use it against 2 legged targets.Obviousely it's no manstopper but I'm thinking along the lines of defense,hunting and how much ammo can you carry and trying to balance all 3.

I have a stainless with laminate stocked model. It came from Wal-Mart, & was a special run for them only. I saw it & had to have it, it has an international stock configuration.

I wore my 30 rnd mag out about 2 yrs before the AWB ended, & I bought a 50 rnder after it ended. It's the only mag I have bought since the band ended, & I want to get a few more just to store. The plastic 30's were as high as $150 at gun shows during the ban.

I do love my 10/22

I got my 10/22 back when I was 13 years old from my father. tens of thousands of rounds later it was totally shot so I decided to rebuild it and made this. Its great shooting this gun after all these years and I will have it for my children.

Nice 10/22's here,

stainless/Butler Creek folder/3x9 scope and 50 round mags

Posted: 3/9/2006 5:07:44 PM EDT

[#12]

10/22 with a rugAR-15 adapter, a Butler Creek folder stock, Butler Creek plastic bull barrel, Cavalry Arms A1 stock, Volquartezen trigger and bolt and a Nikon Buckmaster scope mounted on a set of TSR scope rings.

I had the RB stock, I can't stand it due to the fact that the buffer tube comes straight out almost level with the top of the receiver.
I can't get a decent cheek weld unless I raise the scope up beyond the scopes ability to compensate for the added height.

I cut the forend off of the Butler Creek folder, then I did Dremel surgery on the sides and then some "finish" work with a large bastard file.

The barrel is now a true "free floater".

I have a 6 position AR15 stock on order, I tossed on the spare A1 stock to see how it shoots.

It's just like shooting a stock 10/22 for me.

Works great.

I might fill in the area between the A1 stock and the pistol grip with some soft foam, or I might do some Dremel surgery on the A1 stock.

Then again I just might like the telestock and won't have to cut on the A1 stock.

I bought my son a Ruger 10/22.

My barely legal little friend.

Glad you measure with the stock open, 11.5" barrel with 5.5" FH.

I don't have one but I sure as hell want one now. Fine weapons, guys.

Got a 10/22 stock form, had it for years, bought a CZ 452 American, the Ruger collects dust waiting for the kids to get a bit older.

Who doesn't have at least 4????????????

Seriously! I used to have 5 but sold one to a buddy after I decided I really didn't need that many.

A full custom that I built on a Volquartsen receiver
A model from back in 1967 that was my Dad's
A Wally World special with the 22" barrel
An International model with the Mannlicher style stock

They all shoot great and I have killed tons of rabbits over the years. They are a blast to shoot and cheap to feed.

If you buy one, put 500 rounds thru it to break in the action anf then go out and get the parts for a trigger job and learn to do it yourself on www.rimfirecentral.com

You will thank me later

Have 2 now... One is my daughters... (Shoots better than I do

) and I just got the new one that has the longer barrel and no barrel band with the straight stock.

Then bought a Simmons scope... gonna take it out soon to sight it in

I'm counting the days until I can go go shoot sage rats with mine. I put a 3 point sling on it to help with lugging the heavy barrel around the fields all day.

many a slayed wabbit and enjoyed plinking, a very worthy .22 IMO

I've heard that Chuck Norris uses 10/22's as toothpicks
