Default Another Project?

When I redid my 10/22 I through the stock and barrel in the closet. I was looking through the used gun ad for my favorite gun/tackle store and found a bunch of used 10/22's mostly F condition for sale. Wandered over yesterday. After some discussion that included my absolute lack of interest in the condition of the barrel and stock I came home with


By serial # made in 1986.

A few minutes of high tech gunsmithing with a screw driver and allen wrench and


Stock and barely used barrel from my other 10/22. Don't know if I need to replace extractor and firing pin. Trigger and sear need a bit of stoning. I don't think I'm going with a target barrel, but I probably will replace the stock.
Target-type or tactical-type?

While I was waiting for the NICS check, I wandered over to the tackle side. Lots of flash, attractive colors and they caught exactly what they intended to catch.

Nice little project greener. Thanks for taking in an orphaned Ruger. I'd probably go with the target stock. (just my 2 cents worth)

Found a local guy with does 10/22 rebuilds. Traded the carbine stock and some green paper for a Revelations Tundra stock.



One of these days I'll have to take it out and see if it shoots.
