I'm looking at buying a used Ruger 10/22 that I haven't seen many off, and I'll be honest I've not checked gunbroker. It's a stainless steel and full stocked with kind of a green laminate stock. It's has a few dings in the stock, but it is far from an abused rifle.

I wasn't able to find much online, except I can get a new blued one for less than they're asking for this one. It's less than $800 for sure.

Does it include a black nylon sling with "Ruger" in bright red?

Remind me not to go gun shopping where you live!!! I've seen these for less than $500.00. A buddy in Oregon actually bought a real nice one a few years ago for $350.00. His is stainless with a black/pepper laminate stock though, not a "green laminate" stock. I don't see these very often, but the ones I've seen were at $500, or less. OP, as for checking GB, they have a stainless laminate manlicher that hasn't gotten any bids on it, priced at $629. I see it was listed about 4 or 5 times, and never got bids at that price... Also, from what I've heard, the green/gray laminate full stocked Ruger 10/22 was a Walmart exclusive.
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

I don't have any pictures.
It does have the black and red sling.
I found that one for $629, as well as three others that sold from $400-560 shipped. A gray laminate sold on GI for $350, but with shipping and FFL fees would send the buyer just north of $400. It's a neat little rifle, but not something I have to buy.
If I can get it around $400 I may buy it.

$400? That’s what we like to call a no-brainer.
What fresh Hell is this?

For a couple years Ruger put out the 10/22 in a bunch of different color laminate stocks. Orange, yellow, blue, green, and I think red. With a few dings, no box, etc then $350 to $400 depending on how much you want it.

Looks like this one I bought on closeout at Walmart many years ago.

$400? That’s what we like to call a no-brainer. For $400 I could just buy a brand new blued 10/22 with a full stock. I'm just not sure a SS 10/22 is worth that much of a premium in a used rifle. I just don't live where moisture and humidity are a problem.

Walmart specials. I bought one for myself and after thinking about it overnight, I went back and bought another for my son. I think they were around $150.
Just like the one EdM pictured.

Just like the one EdM pictured. Lucky you. Do you still check their gun counter for clearance sales? Walmart stopped selling guns here.

That's the walmart 10/22 like folks mentioned. If I just had to have one, I wouldnt go more than 400ish on it.

Mine now looks like this after cleaning out a gun shop junk bin.

. Very nice. I've never seen a Ruger stock like that. Is that stock Ruger or aftermarket ?

I just don't live where moisture and humidity are a problem. If it's not perfect, I probably wouldn't buy it for $400 either. Like I said, my buddy bought one a while back for $350.00, but it is like new. He's sly though, and replaced the barrel with a green mountain and made the ultimate sleeper out of it. It shoots very well.
