I already have a 10/22 carbine and I like it but I have never been thrilled with its length. When I saw the 10/22 compact I though thats the ticket. But then Ruger came out with the blued takedown and I had another idea.
My idea is this, buy a 10/22 takedown blued and remove the flashhider replacing it with a thread protector, should shorten the barrel about a inch. Next buy a carbine stock and cut it and fit it to the takedown. Last would be to get some True-Glo fiber optic sights to replace the iorns.
The only part I am not sure of is the stock, I have not looked at the two next to each other to see if it is even doable. I don't know how the takedown stock fits to each end of the rifle. anyways what do you all think, pipe dream or some kitchen table gunsmitihing?
