Bite sized pieces.

Mine will probably look a lot like that this weekend. I need to put in an extended mag release and a tuffer buffer and an auto bolt release and a scope and a new mount and ...

ha ha you sound like me ha ha the possibilities are endless i ordered a blue laminated thumbhole stock, a 18 inch stainless threaded fluted .920 bull barrel, a tactical soluctions tactical v-block (to decrease barrel sag), a tactical soluctions muzzle break(compensator). ordered a timney trigger group but it was on back order so i canceled it thinking bout getting it from some where else or may a volquartzen trigger, i adventually plan on getting the extended mag release oversized bolt handle, buffer, then want to send my bolt off to get it made "purdy" then i after i finish mine i have to start on my wifes... ha poor pocket book!
Mine is already a bull with a laminated stock. So I am ok on the big stuff. I am still waffling on to do about the trigger on it. I could put a new hammer in mine ($45), or send it off to Clark Custom Guns for a trigger job ($65 plus $10 shipping) or just leaving it alone. It is pretty smooth, just a wee tad heavy.

I like the skeltonized bolt handles. Looks like jeweling the bolt isn't too expensive. Lots of stuff that isn't too expensive and should be fun.

My brother, on the other hand, has had a 10-22 since the early seventies and has literally done nothing more than clean it a couple of times. Well, he has fed it lots of cheap 22 ammo. I am guessing I spent more on my scope than he has on his 10-22.

They are fun guns either way you go.

My first 10/22 was bought around 1978 from a store (can't remember the name) that was next to Metrocenter's movie theater. The cost was $105. Maybe the store was Roses....???

Ruger 10/22............. The BEST all round 22RF rifle ever made.

I wasn't around Jackson in those days, but there was a Service Merchandise next to the theater when i got here. Can't remember if they sold guns are not.

I think my brothers 10-22 was around $50. One of the California cousins came to my grandparents one summer, bought it, and then it was more hassle than it was worth to take it back on the bus so Jerry ended up with it.

I have a browning bl22 that is a lot of fun to shoot, but there are not a lot of parts to customize it.

it seems that everyone is crazy about the savage mark II well i have a savage mark I it is pretty old not sure how old but its a single shot and very accurate. According to my tracking number my parts will be here in 2 business days by ups. does any one kow if that means Saturday or monday? I am not sure if ups considers saturday a business day or not
SubGunFan, it was Service Merchandise,

That's where I bought mine.........
OK - get that thing finished ... I got a "extra" 10/22 sitting around here that needs a new make-over!! :lol4:

That would be Monday unless you paid extra for Saturday delivery.
I hope looks like I hope it does and I hope it shoots better
Thanks I thought that meant Monday wasn't sure tho
