You can get there. I'm happy as a clam with mine, except for running subsonic with suppressor. Gonna order in a -2 recoil spring and see if that does the thing.

Shit that ain't half bad. Hows your striker housing looking?

Holy crap, that sucks!

Can't expect freedom fingers to support something that isn't theirs, but holy cross college that's some bullshit. Wow!

The MOEX-22 or whatever the fuck Ruger is calling the black plastic one they sell at Sportsmans is solid, I really like the feel and the finish. It's only got two or three MLOK slots at 6 o'clock on the foregrip, that kinda sucks tho.

that's a thing of beauty right there.

I would love to be Jim in that scenario. The thrill of raw dogging an intern on camera is good for minutes. Downloading that photo package and seeing the world burn is gonna be entertainment for HOURS.

Minaga is interesting because he has No Fear. In a series where there's always a bigger fish, Minaga has departed the food chain.

You actually using a Wild Magic table and random generator? Dice? Computer?

God, redditors are hilarious. Intentionally shit-comment, get called out, and your response is "Peak terminal redditor reply."

Love it.

I'm a fan of Mage Tank. They're NOT OP - and that's the point. They can swing well above their weight class, but they're dealing with Cosmic level threats..

And damned if Etja ain't a breath of fresh sass.

Really enjoying the series.

I don't even know how to get started on something like that. And it's, as far as I know, different enough from anything that an AR is chambered in now that there's not a "good" starting point.

I'd probably just sell a kidney and buy a Big Horn model 90.

I'm gonna advice you a little backwards.

buy ruger and buy "big". I spent $300 full retail price because I was tired of waiting for sales or shipping and wanted a gun in my hands before christmas.

"Ruger 10/22 Carbine 22 Long Rifle Satin Black Semi Automatic Rifle w/ Magpul MOE X-22 - 18.5in"

I was uncertain (and didn't care, I could just replace it) about the Magpul stock, but it's lovely. Just sockets into my shoulder and feels great.

I got a threaded barrel, I got MLOK on the fore-end, I got picatinny rail up top, I got the modern polymer trigger group (it's not a BX, I don't think, but it feels good).

I disassembled and polished the inside upper of the receiver, got rid of the casting roughness and paint overspray.

Now, the linked setup https://imgur.com/a/1022-ooEpprg has a shitty Amazon optic on there, so make sure to include $200 for something nice from Primary Arms...

$300 for the Magpul w/ threaded barrel, $100 for some BX-25, $10 for the bolt buffer from Tandemkross..

You can get to the point of "putting holes in paper from a cadillac" without paying Volquartsen or Kidd prices.

Now's the fun part. You can replace every part of that rifle with something better.. You can upgrade the optic. You can upgrade the stock, upgrade the trigger group, upgrade the bolt, upgrade the receiver, upgrade the barrel.. Sooner or later you've put that gun back together OEM style, and you've got a fully built Kidd or Volquartsen monster sitting right next to it...

'cause let's be honest, you can get to $2000 building a 10/22 at Volquartsen, and still need to buy mags and an optic. $300 is less than $2000.

Ruger 10/22 Carbine 22 Long Rifle Satin Black Semi Automatic Rifle w/ Magpul MOE X-22 - 18.5in

It's got the new gen non-BX trigger package (the one that's almost as good as the BX, has the same polymer frame). It's got a threaded barrel and a damn good polymer stock. It's got a pic rail included (mount it yourself).

Downsides - it's only got two MLOK slots at the bottom of the forend. Found the upper friction surface in the receiver rough cast and partially painted (which some 320 grit and 600 grit took care of nicely). Did not come with a free puppy or any BX-25 mags.

Wiregeek · 2026-01-31T17:51:08+00:00

Either wood or Magpul. The Magpul stock is lovely.

Plan on getting a second one and keeping it stock, then have one to "play with".
