My NFA trust stamp finally arrived last week five months after it was paid.
So was finally able to put the shortened & threaded barrel back on the first firearm I bought as an adult in '78: a walnut-stocked 10/22 carbine.
I put it in a birch stock I've got laying around, as am about to strip, remove nearly 40 years of dings and give the original walnut a deep oil finish.
It's my idea of what Ruger should have on the market right meow (they're making suppressors, why not SBRs?), and what I should have turned it into shortly after I got it.
The beech stock is gonna get cut to 12.5 LOP so my grandson can have a size appropriate training rifle.
That's a .400 XS front sight, got a really cool peep rear but ain't gonna post pics until everything is dialed in.
