I got my first Ruger 10/22 over 25 years ago. It was a full house Volquartsen custom with McMillan stock and a nice (for the time) B&L variable power scope. I don't think I've shot it in 15 years, but it was still a solid half-MOA gun with match grade ammo then.
These days, to my surprise, there are an incredibly large number of excellent custom shops specializing in the 10/22 format firearms and components.
So, the 10/22 bug has bitten me again.
Here are the first two 10/22 rifles I've assembled, very practical lightweight take-down clones that would not have been possible more than a few years ago. The only Ruger part is the 10-round rotary magazine. The take-down (aka "TD") receivers and barrels are by Tactical Solutions (aka "TS"). For the trigger groups, I went with Timney's 2.5 LB single stage with extended mag release. The simple elegance of the Magpul X-22 stock pulls this 4 LB creation together nicely.
The TS SBX take-down barrel has a built in suppressor shroud that gives you an overall barrel length of 16+". It comes with a pretty nice fake suppressor, as seen with the FDE rig. The gray model has my own Thunder Beast .22 suppressor installed.
