Well about a month ago, i made a post on here saying i stumbled across a very cool stock for the ruger 10/22, that made it look like sort of an MP5sd/HK416 baby, and said i was gonna pick one up when it was released.


Well, i finally picked it up! :D

So first off i'll give somewhat of a review.

The "kit" consists of a full length 1913 picatinny rail, the stock system, the handguard, a barrel shroud which is long enough to fit over an 18.5" barrel (or cut down if you have a shorter barrel) and the handguard retainer.

The stock, barrel shroud, handguard retainer and handguard are made of plastic, and the picatinny rail is billet alluminum, milled to 1913 specs. as shown by the pictures, the aimpoint mount fit right on, although its a tad bit wider compared the the Mesa Tactical shotgun rail it is usually on, it was only 2 or 3 clicks to widen the mount (which is less than the difference between the stock benelli M4 rail, and the Mesa rail), so pretty darned close :)

The picatinny rail is attached via 2 screws into the Ruger reciever, and one screw into the rear portion of the stock system. The handguard retainer is also attached to the picatinny rail with a screw.

The handguard is held in place over the barrel with an internal stabaliser (it holds it tight against a bull barrel) and the handguard retainer, which slips into the front of the handguard and prevents it from moving (the handguard retainer is attached to the picatinny rail)


The barrel shroud is a friction fit, but a VERY TIGHT one. Would not come off with any ammount of swinging i could do.




The ruger reciever fits very tightly into the stock, and mine required a teeny bit of filing work, but locked in nice and solid! The whole setup is very "tight" which is good. no wobbling bits or anything. It uses a "Universal" AR buffer tube, and any AR15 pistol grip.

It uses AR flat top sights very well, and the alluminum rail makes for a great optic mounting setup! The ones i have on there are just some Chicom made HK416 spinoff sights, which work really good actually! With my aimpoint and the low ADM mount, its an absolute co-witness. The aimpoint wont be sitting on there permanently, its my shotguns optic, but wanted to try the S54 out with optics :D






Overall i love this stock! :D

Its VERY light weight, very comfortable, and uses a lot of different AR15 parts, which makes parts availability much better!

I will be changing it up a bit in the future when funds allow, putting a shorter barrel on, and mabey getting an ACE skeleton stock or something.

So heres some cheap quick pics i took of me and my 10/22.

Never mind my pose, just trying to look sorta cool :p

Looks like a decent piece of kit for the price! Although, IMHO, the long shroud makes it look a bit goofy. Better to go with the handguard and the barrel sticking out. I've been avoiding buying a 10/22 for years. Didn't want to jump on the bandwagon, so to speak. Between this and the Nordic AR-22, I just might have to get one :runaway: .

If you want you can take the barrel shroud off, it wont affect functionality at all :)

I'll see if i can get my buddy that took those pics of me to come over and get another pic, since my camera is fooked.

I was checking out the Nordic kit too, but all you get is just the stock system, and then you dont get much in the way of using iron sights unless you get an expencive free float handguard.

With the full length rail on the S54, just slap on some iron sights and go :D

That looks pretty cool, does the shroud make it barrel heavy?

Also that must of hurt when you took that tape off your eyes. :)

The shroud doesn't weigh much, i could barely tell the difference in weight with it on or off.

Yes, that darned black tape always seems to rip out a few eyelashes :p

i wish there was some sort of software program you could do it with.... wait... what? :p

How's the top rail attached? Is it available on it's one?

Its screwed into the ruger reciever with 2 screws, and into the rear section of the plastic stock.

I dont think you can order it alone since its part of the "kit", even then it depends on the rear screw into the stock, and the front stabalizing ring on the barrel to keep it stable, since its a big chunk of alluminum.

if you want to ask, send an email to the owner, he'd be able to tell you for sure :D

he should have an email on his website.
 
wow...its just so...different lol i love it and hate it all at the same time.... id like to pick up a 10/22 to mod myself one of these days since joining this site ive seen jsut how far you can go with the mods:eek:....
 
I suppose technically, you could put a 106mm barrel on it and keep it non-restricted as long as the overall length was over 26", but you'd have to find one that is factory made. I think you could put a Charger barrel on it and keep it non-res. Other then that, I think the shortest (available) barrel would be an ER Shaw 11.5".

I like mine! :D

PS - oh yeah... awesome looking rig! :dancingbanana:

PPS - upon editing this, I realized that you probably knew that already and were probably asking how short of a barrel could you use with that particular stock. I guess you were actually asking how long the stock was in it's shortest configuration. So yeah..... go ahead and ignore this one.

My bad!

what's the shortest barrel you can stick on that and keep it non-restricted. that looks pretty cool, but it would look so much better with a shorter barrel.

If my measurements were correct when i measured it originally, the length from the rear portion of the buffer tube to about where an 11.5" barrel would end, it was like 27 or 27.5 inches. Since i have an 18.5" bbl, it was a little hard to be sure.

Im going to eventually get an 11.5" barrel for mine, but im going to use a fixed stock untill i can confirm the length.

Im pretty sure an 11.5" barrel would work, but as i said, im not 100% sure.

I'll do some more measurements when i have a chance, to see if i was right.

Thanks for the compliments so far! Im really happy with the stock, especially since its brand new on the market!

I will hopefully get a dedicated optic for it, and mabey a magpul CTR if it will allow for the shorter length 11.5" barrel.


Also, just a question, but where are you guys getting the 11.5" barrels from? I remember finding a place a few months back selling 11.5" barrels in Canada, but for the life of me i cant remember where. I emailed them, and they said they were switching from ruger 10/22 stuff to AR15 stuff, so i dont know if they're even selling them anymore.

I got mine on the EE.

I'm pretty sure you can still get them at Tacshot still though. He is the guy who is switching over to AR-15 stuff, but I emailed him before I found the one on the EE and he said that he has some more coming in.

Ahh thanks man, thats the site I was lookin for! :D

I'll probly look out for them in the EE too, since im gonna wait for some other things before i get the new barrel.
 
Got another pic (been darned busy lately!) of it without the shroud, if you like it that way.

Also flipped around the front iron sight, i think its on backwards now (since the screws that clamp them in are on opposite sides now, rather than the same side) but i like the look more this way, a little more like the HK416 sights.
 
Your wrong, the shortest barrel you can get is from a site sponsor called FabSports, he sells a 10/22 barrel that is only 8.5 inches long. I know because I bought one and installed it on my Krinker Plinker kit. The also cost 1/2 what a ER shaw 11 incher costs.
 
Sorry for not posting pictures of her sooner, I got the Magpul CTR about a month ago, but I've been wayyy to busy to post pics of it :(

So here you go:

I'll have more pics to come hopefully soon. The CTR is awesome, and the HK style Iron sights are an awesome height!
