10/22 Custom Receivers

excellent posts , Lector . your interpretations of even the smallest details leave me speachless. Knowledge and expertise ...
To bad you don 't have the time or the patience to explain the "vertical clearance'' . Don't let Kaiser sose get to your nerves , he is acting weird lately .

Dont forget mysticplayer has asked about barrel droop as well . Maybe you can shed some info here on that subject as well .
 
Finally finished my first 80% build. Razor receiver, hornet bolt, volquartsen handle, homemade CCI stinger mag release, volquartsen trigger group, .920 barrel. I just put it in an old Fajen stock I had.

this is the stinger shell, I tapped out the factory mag release to 10-32 and put a threaded rod in and epoxied the shell to it.

now just have to see how it shoots
 
This is a new receiver from PWS who, with help from Hawktech Arms,
moves strongly into the rimfire market.
It has a toggle type action, similar to some biatlon rifles.

Nice! Taking advantage of the after market accessories available for the 10/22, for them that don't want a semi. Or cannot use one in their competitions, I suppose.

Well, it's generally accepted that bolt guns are more accurate than semi autos, for many reasons. This unit seems to give the user the benefits of 10/22 accessories, the potential accuracy of a bolt gun, and the quick cycling biathlon like action.

Two major questions I have are:
Does it use the same bolt?
Is there a second hold down?
 
I posted the above because I wanted to show other efforts
in the field of 10/22. This thread is not about the Dlask receivers,
but about everything aftermarket/custom receivers.

Well, PWS/Hawktech have let this info (pics) to "slip out" when
they were anouncing the new double pad mag-release.
It is a "subtle" way to get the public interest...
This way, they (the public) are made to believe they discovered
"what's cooking", a product meant to be still secret for that time being.




After that, the producers said it uses a "proprietary bolt",
a special receiver (obviously!), and factory TG/mag/barrels.
Probably it will be officially anounced shortly at SHOT Show.

(On a side note, you may be able to see the trigger group in
the pictures above is the new PWS/Hawktech replacement trigger:

I do not recall anything being said about the second hold-down, but
it would certainly benefit from it.
 
Apparently, some of my past explanations about the rotation of the bolt
due to an eccentric spring raised the interest in some people
but also and intrigued some others.
Some of the readers believed that "my" theories concerning the
rotation of the bolt were splitting the hairs.
As a matter of fact, these were not even "my" findings,
but were discussed since forever in 10/22 circles.
And this rotation of the bolt in the OEM design and most of the aftermarket ones
was considered a problem by many of the purist 10/22 aficionados.
The “splitting the hairs” issue may be true if you are not genuinely interested
In 10/22’s, how they work and how they can be improved.





I will show here some very serious efforts for a design change
that addressed (and solved) this very issue of the bolt rotation.

Few years ago, the company Tactical Solutions came with
a 10/22 aftermaket receiver loosely based on the 10/22 design
that had a lot of internal changes and design improvements.
As a matter of fact, only few OEM parts could be used on that receiver: trigger group and barrel.
All the rest was changed (and proprietary), especially the bolt and the guiding system.

From the very beginning, the designer felt the time came to get rid of
the eccentric spring/guide rod.

There was the (theoretical) solution of making a spring/guide-rod system
right through the middle of the bolt. That would be ideal, since
it would void the eccentric spring action that would push the bolt on a side or up/down.
However, that would be of very little practicality, since the bolt/guide-rod
would be in the way of the hammer.

Then, the designing genius "parted" the spring/guide-rod in two separated assemblies
doing the same thing that together had the same effect of a single one right through the
middle of the bolt. That way, the hammer was working between the two and was left undisturbed.

That was pure genius.




Unfortunately for Tactical Solutions Inc., the market appeal was cut short because
of a glitch in the design/execution/materials of the round firing pin.
Even today, long after the glitch was solved, the public is still somewhat reluctant
in dealing with the company, for the reason of these past problems.
But either way, the double spring design is considered to be
one very important step forward in the evolution of the great 10/22,
namely in the minimizing of the bolt horizontal rotation.
 
Haven't had much of an issue with the current design nor so I see any wear that I should be concerned about. I did give the bolt a good polish which reduces edges and I just got a another new factory bolt for my stock 10/22 and was it ever rough.
 
Been shooting my dlask 22 for awhile now, I so love it. Happily shooting out 225m I need to find a place to shoot that longer than our range to see just how far I can shoot with this baby. Ammo is the winchester Super X 37 & 40 gr.
