The local gun dealer had a Ruger Sr-22 on the shelf. Looked at it for a few minutes.
decided I liked it, bought it before someone else could.
Does that make me a bad person?

Now I am debating. Do I put it on the EE at a what i paid for it?
or do I take it out, break it in with 5000 rounds,
then put it on the EE for what I paid for it plus the cost of the 5000 rounds????

I am not serious. This one looks like it will be my new truck gun.

On first impression the extending stock is a little flaky. - would an AR stock fit?
and a slightly shorter barrel may be in the works if I can find one.
But I don not want to drop it below the 26 inch min overall length...
 
It is still plenty long with a 12.5" barrel. Stocks exchange if you feel the need.

The factory stock sucks, it wobbles. Get a magpul milspec stock, it's rock solid on mine. You can put other AR parts on it too, like different grips. Shorter barrel, I went with a 12.5" sporter chambered .920 to .850 stepped barrel from Dlask Arms. Check out this post to see a comparison from my factory 16.5" barrel down to 12.5". Keep in mind I have a Dlask sr-22 Short hand guard and iron eagle tactical brush guard, so the amount of barrel sticking out from the hand guard will be different than the stock sr-22. My overall length is ~27.5" fully collapsed, not including the flash hider.

Get ready to spend ALOT of money on upgrades! I almost spent the cost of the gun in upgrades so far ... But hey, I like the gun and that's what counts

I bought the gun for the fact that it will make a good truck gun. I will be installing a gun rack in the rear window....
