I can already feel the dangerous addiction just from seeing all the options for the Ruger 10/22. This is actually my first long gun, I have a couple hand guns.

After looking around at a lot of the different stocks to work with I am thinking of using this fab sports stock as a base: http://www.fabsports.ca/STOCK/fs556/fs556.html.

I know it is a bit pricey compared to some of the other stocks, but it is aluminium and gives me the freedom to use real AR parts and to customize it in a modular way that some of the cheaper ones don't.

I really like that it is not a kit and can be completely customized. I am also hoping to get into ARs one day when I have more disposable income so the thought of using quality AR parts that I can reuse in the future is another bonus.

Has anyone used this? Care to share some pics of it if you have?

I have NO gun smithing skills and am looking forward to learning slowly, I believe this system does not require any permanent modifications (welding, drilling).

Is this a good idea or is there a better more affordable one to consider? I don't mind spending the cash for a quality product, but I HATE spending cash on garbage.

Thanks!

Which one of Fabsports stocks are you referring to? The FS556? Evolution?

I have the Evolution, and it is heavy, but I like it. Easy to assemble, no permanent mods or gunsmithing skills, just knowing enough not to overtighten screws going into aluminum.
 
It looks like a good stock...I would go for it!

BTW...you'll end up with several 10/22's...so make sure your safe is big enough...lol. :D

Another one of my favorites is my 10/22 with a GM 20" target barrel and Boyd's Evolution stock...
 
I like the option of what handguard to use on the 556. It would be a good close quarters battle rifle. I prefer my Evolution stock where you want long range ultra accuracy, as its easier to mount the scope to the receiver. I'd like to know if the receiver remains stable enough in the 556 receiver to hold scope alignment for precision shooting. I'd imagine its certainly good for a red dot and tactical sort of accuracy.

Click to expand...

The only things I need for my 10/22 to make it basicly non stock are

new reciver.. New bolt fireingpin chargeing handle.. and a barrel.. Everything else has been replaced already once you start its hard to stop but when I think about it now And look at other guns I go for less I could have that and it has what I added to the gun out of the box..
