Bullpup stock for 10/22

Before some of the others swoop in here to "eat their young", no. Sadly any stock that makes a non-bullpup rifle into a bullpup is a prohibited device. A bullpup rifle designed as a bullpup and unable to fire when the action is removed from the stock is legal (ie. Tavor, T-97NSR, Keltec RFB)
 
My question to that, is what if a functional part - like the upper receiver on the 10/22, would be manufactured as a bullpup? So the receiver would be part of the stock itself, as in it would extend out to the rear butt but would use the 10/22's barrel and partial trigger assembly?

Am i basically manufacturing a completely different rifle at this point?

Yes and yes, basically. Manufacturing a new receiver makes it a new gun, since the serial number is on the receiver. If the stock is an integral part of the rifle and it cannot be fired when disassembled from the stock then it should be legal, same as the Tavor and RFB among others.

$h@# our laws are frickin bonkers, could you not take the 10/22 reciever out of any aftermarket kit such as promags, tapcos etc etc and it will still fire? Bullpup or whatever a guns a gun
