Building my 10/22 *New pictures page 7*
I picked up a 10/22 carbine and I couldn't resist doing a build with it. No specific goals, just a nice looking decent shooter that I can be proud to say "I built this!"
I've got a barrel on the way and I'll be ordering a stock, bolt buffer, bipod, and will be sending the trigger group out for some work by one of the fellas on rimfirecentral.
I'll update this thread as parts and progress come in, thanks for looking.
Factory configuration:
I messed around with the factory stock and reshaped it a little in the grip area, repainted it in a camo pattern, and will be applying a few coats of poly in the near future. Added a Simmons 3-9x40 that was shipped with my Savage 111, and removed the barrel band.
Phase 2:
Comments and suggestions are welcome.
** UPDATE! ** Whistle Pig barrel installed, pics on page 4.
** UPDATE! ** Boyd's Blaster sanded and poly'd on page 5. Started prepping scope for paint.
** UPDATE! ** Still no scope, but new pictures on page 5. 97% done, want to add a bipod, trigger job, and eventually a Mueller APV to replace this mediocre Simmons 3x9-40mm.
** UPDATE! ** Page 7, Mueller APV 4.5-14x40 AO and DNZ Game Reaper Low Matte 1 piece base arrived and installed. Better/more pictures to follow.
