10/22 bolt buffers

[jigger08]

Is there any trick to installing these.Bought a pair off of a fellow CGNer and want to be sure before I start.Not much gunsmithing in my background.

Should take less than 2 minutes to remove the factory part and install the new buffer...

You won't believe how easy it is to install!

1)Remove the action from the stock with the takedown screw under the forearm of the stock. Only one screw under there, you can't miss it.
Remove the barreled reciever from the stock and flip it over

2) Push out the steel pin with a punch or screwdriver

3) Push in and replace it with you new buffer

4) Reassemble your rifle.

(reverse the steps you used when breaking down your rifle)


CONGRATULATIONS!


You have completed a Buffer Modification on your ruger 10/22 rifle!

The one I bought had ends that were a little mushroomed and would not fit into the receiver easily. If this happens to you I would recomend taking some emery cloth to one end of the buffer to chamfer it so it feeds in properly.

I was a little worried about doing mine as well. I had never done such a thing before. I couldn't believe how easy it was.

PS as you know, more mods will get easier to do
