As sgtdave mentioned a 10/22? Start off with a cheap base build and customize to yer heart's desire!

I agree with that.

Do i start with a standard 10/22 or a 10/22 takedown?

Go with the standard version of the 10/22, since you'll be gutting it to make the build with the custom parts.

Agreed. Standard 10/22

one of these should be in everyone’s gun safe

Cool, thanks. I had a 10/22 takedown for a short period of time but wasn't a big fan of it and ended up selling it off. Maybe ill pick one up under the same nics check for the stoeger i want to buy if i ever get to tanners or cabelas makes shit right.

I took the standard black synthetic stock like this:

 

and bought this Archangel kit and converted it to this:

Wowzers! Looks like a Cheaper Than Dirt catalog three up on your rifle. You should probably clean that up.

If I ever put that atrocity on a 10/22....someone please use it on me.  I've obviously gotten so sick to my head that you'd be doing me a favor...

I love that 10/22s have hundreds of options for different shells.  I've seen 10/22 AUGs, M249s, G36s, and so many other guns.  However, if I go for a body kit for a 10/22, the model in the lead for me is a High Tower Armory 90/22

Would run about 1/3 of what a PS90 would with a fake can, and I'd get my P90 fix.  Plus it would cost a hell of a lot less to shoot than a PS90...

I just don't see the point. It's a sub 200 dollar gun why spend almost double that to make it look different. If you want an AR style 22 just get the S&W m&p 15-22 and be done.

The Rugers?

 

I’ve seen them a quite a few dealers in NJ. I do know some of those other caliber M1 Carbines (9mm, if I remember correctly), were deemed as “assault weapons.”

 

Biggest identical situation I heard was that MA AG who redefined what was included as identical... making all ARs covered, and not just things like Colt’s marked “AR-15.” Was after that Florida nightclub shooting.

is that before the courts?  can't see how that's legal

MA? Don’t follow it, as I’m not there or intending to move there.

Because it was a play project during the Winter, it gave me something to do. I don't give a crap about the money, that's never an issue.

OK then... M&P15-22 is probably the same price in the end and more like an AR in every way compared to that ugly thing. I would have left it stock and bought more ammo.

Yeah, but I wanted the guts to be a bulletproof Ruger 10/22. That's the important part.

Does the window curtains really matter in that case?

I did that too, lots of it. Like I said, it wasn't about the money, that wasn't a consideration, there's lots of that too.

did you buy an older Ruger 10/22 as your base?

What's your definition of "older"?

 

if  you're asking, good luck with those 'bullet proof' innards.
