The Kidd ones are nice and come in stainless or aluminum. The dlask ones I’ve bought and used looked like beavers machined em. I also had fitment issue on a amt lightning with the dlask made ones. The factory 10/22 wmr is a nice one.
Or buy a volquartsen bolt with the screwed in style

Dlask
I have bought literally many thousands of dollars in Dlask products and have never had any machining issues or complaints. Barrels are extremely accurate and the receivers Ive used(over a dozen) are on par or better than anything out there. Bolts are awesome as well as charge handles. Maybe I just got lucky with all the stuff ive purchased from them. If you had problems with an AMT its the cause of them no longer being in business. I owned some of their pistols for very short periods of time. If you copy things and cant make it better you go bankrupt!! Just sayin
Fitting issue which are common among clone 10/22 dosent excuse poor machining and design. Why pay a premium for a green mountain blank from dlask. Handle a stainless Kidd charging handle it has a better finish and design. So your argument about amt disappearing would that apply to dlask being unable to build a better product than Kidd, or volquartsen?
Well Ive built around 20 so far and havent experienced your problems with fit or quality. Yes Ive used Volquartsen receivers and think their bolt is the absolute best by design. However the VQ receiver is $640 plus tax and shipping and doesnt make the gun shoot any better than the many Ive built with Dlask receivers. My current gun has a Dlask receiver and Ive won medals in CRPS as well as Outlaw matches and the X22 series. So it apparently works rather well. Some people just shouldnt pretend to be gunsmiths and rely on those more knowledgeable for working on firearms. AMT going bankrupt has nothing to do with a company from Canada thats still in business and doing rather well. Fitting issues with clones is usually related to issues with clowns!!
Dlask doesn’t build triggers, doesn’t build bolts and use green mountain blanks in their barrels. Who’s pretending to be a smith or a clown? congratulations on your shooting prowess.
Please educate this clown on what a dlask receiver does to make it shoot better than stock? Must be the 7075.
Expressed my experience and offered the OP some options nothing more
A stock receiver with a headspaced stock bolt and a green mountain blank from bits and pieces would perform the same as anything dlask “makes”

Volquartsen Ruger 10/22 Silver Extended Bolt Handle. For my SS International Manlicher 10/22. Works like a charm. They have other colors.

Well if you don’t know the difference between billet 7075 being precisely machined and cast aluminum being very poorly machined my explaining isn’t going to make any difference. Dlask did make bolts as good as Kidd but from the business side cost verses selling Kidd made sense financially. Do you think Kidd or VQ make their own barrels. What’s done with the blank is what makes the difference. If you owned or shot one of the tuff 22 builds and can’t see a huge difference in accuracy then it’s not the gun but the clown operating it. How exactly does the the bolt get headspaced Mr. Gunsmith!! Theres a huge difference between a barrel and a blank Clown!! Just sayin. Kidd uses Lothar Walther BLANKS, just thought I’d help you connect the dots.

Kidd use Lothar Walther barrel blanks & use their own proprietary chamber reamer & then lap the finished barrel. I have had good results with two Kidd barrels & also with three Green Mountain barrels.

Neat! That's really cool. I don't have a 10/22 but a similar product for other rifles would be interesting. Has anyone made their own charging handles? I love DIY stuff, to the extreme lol. Side note, can we chill on the pissing match nonsense? Yeah I get it sometimes an exuberant fellow needs to be put in their place but these days it just seems non stop... Would we talk to each other like this face to face?
A few pics for a highly skilled gunsmith that’s missed! Cheers Glenn.[Just some random parts that I threw together that won’t outshoot a standard Ruger HaHa. The third and fourth pics are the current gun I’ve used for the last couple years. It will consistently hit a 1/4” target at 50 yards. Dlask receiver, Kidd trigger and barrel as well as tapped trigger pins, Kidd recoil buffer, Volquartsen comp bolt DLC coated, Dlask adjustable Vee block and Kidd polished action rod and white subsonic action spring with Insite tuner and Brake. The stock is a Manners carbon fibre. The first and last guns have Dlask bolts( They do exist).]755577[/ATTACH]
