Here's another that I nearly forgot about. A Charger in an SB Tactical chassis/brace with a Volquartsen barrel and Burris 3x prism. Pretty neat setup but I've since reconfigured it into a Midwest Industries chassis. Still not completely happy with it but it's a work in progress.

 

Hi CraigC,
They all look fantastic, it just shows what can be done with a humble 10/22!
I just wish we had all such mods available here in the UK.

 

if you think the 10/22 is versatile, you would really love the AR15

 

Can you put in a nice target wooden stock? How bout convert it to a bullpup? Can you make an ar15 look like, not an ar15? Can you make an ar15 look like a 10/22? Can you make a ar15 look like a tommy gun? An m1 garand? How about a PPSH?

 

The HTA was originally just done for fun but I soon found it's a pretty handy carbine. It's light and quick, easier to maneuver in and out of my SXS or vehicle.

I just got one of these and darn if it isn't my current favorite gun to shoot. It balances well and just fits me pretty near perfect. It's MORE accurate than it was in the original wooden stock and if you use a decent BX Trigger and tinker with the xfer bar a bit, the trigger isn't THAT bad.

Oh, I've got a dozen of those.

It surprised me. It's surprisingly comfortable and a blast to shoot.

 

I agree with you CraigC, the 10/22, like the AR15, is a great LEGO rifle.

And today the very same 10/22 pattern firearm can be changed in minutes from a heavy bench rifle to one more suited for the field or Appleseed (and back again). I'm aging and it was requested that I make things easy for my wife after I croak. So I've been selling things off. But I also don't want to give up any ability. My solution was a KIDD SG on the KIDD "tactical" chassis. With it I can have a heavy bench rifle or a field rifle and the conversion happens in minutes. With it I keep the # of firearms in the safe down but keep and I've even expanded capability. As a bench rifle it weighs >12# and as a field rifle 6ish pounds.

Like you I have a Ruger 10/22 Charger handgun that I built into a SBR for fast handling for steel challenge.

The 10/22 is a pretty good, and versatile, design. I think it'll be around for quite awhile.

 

Nice set of 10/22s. You're having way too much fun.

 

I love all those wood stocks! The others are great too. I have a similar 10/22 affliction, but I just need to finish all my projects.

 

Here’s the one I put together with components. Brownells, Kidd, Green Mountain, and KRG,

 

Thanks for the pics, your guns look really nice, its a pity we cannot have ones like this in the UK. Our Government, the police, the newspapers and much of the general public here in the UK would have a fit if we were allowed to have ones like them, particularly the short barrelled ones.

 

Moved to a different thread

 

A fantastic collection. But if you will excuse my ignorance on this, what is a race gun and what sort of competition is it used for?

 

Just a short note... The "race" in race gun has no relationship whatsoever to the word racial.

I've always considered a "race gun", no matter the caliber to have modifications beyond the base gun to allow faster handling and better qualities for shooting. Like an ordinary car for the road can be used for racing it's not really designed for the track, but a "race car" is. What games are they good for? IDPA, USPSA, steel challenge would be a few. I'll let you go to youtube to plunk those search terms into the appropriate box to see videos.

Example of SBRs designed purely for fast handling (but they're also quite accurate):



And race guns also come in handgun flavors.

That's very interesting, many thanks for the info.

 

My pleasure. To give an idea of how fast the shooting can be, in case you didn't check out youtube, after I get done shooting a stage in a match many times a scene from a zombie show will sail through my brain. You know, a scene where the zombies are attacking in hopes of overwhelming the defenders. That's especially so with steel challenge and the round steel targets (zombie heads). Yeah, I know, I watch too many movies of that sort.
