For sure it would be prohibited but it would be intresting to make similar stock for 22 rifle of someone's choice

That's very interesting. There is absolutely no reason it should be prohib, based on this write up on it.

I wonder if they are available commercially....

Along with the common SVD, Dragunov designed a shorter version of his famous weapon in caliber .22LR. TSV-1 (Trenirovochnaya Snayperskaya Vintovka) was meant for training army sharpshooters. It had the usual SVD buttstock and a handguard, a more laconic receiver, a ten-round detachable pistol-type magazine and a shorter barrel. The weapon had excellent accuracy! At a distance of 50 meters, skilled shooters in a prone position were able of firing a group of ten shots all inside a circle of 12 mm. The rifle had a unique firing mechanism, integrated with a free blowback bolt carrier, firing pin, return spring and a top bolt cover.

EDIT: from the lack on info on the net these are probably mostly vaporware. A 10/22 conversion would be cool.

Hate to know the price.

I have never seen them for sale. What would be cool is to make a frame just the middle part to which you could add the rifle and the ferniture. Dragunov stock hand guard sets are easy to buy and not that hard to mount on the rifle

You do realize rcmp often determine a gun if its variant by simply reading the description.
And by that Ill say 99% its prohib

Yes, I'm fully aware of the process the RCMP use to determine the classification of a rifle. I stated there was no reason why it should be prohib, not that it wouldn't be.

All they have to do is look at a photo. If it even looks like it might have possibly been styled after a prohib, they prohib it.

There is no logic. Do not attempt to make sense of the garbage, you'll just give yourself a headache.
