You had me at integrally suppressed

Oh Wow! I like it! Very nice!

Sequim Shooter on this site was the inspiration for this rifle , He had the same barrel set up with a PWS T3 Summit with the biathlon action that was as quite as a flea fart and I had to get one . I built this one and we had a friendly shoot off and my semi action was actually more quite then his biathlon action so of course he sold the receiver and blatantly copied me

HAHAAAA!!!

The rifle I have in mind will look something like that only mine won't be integrally suppressed (yet).

So how do you like that stock? I am keeping that one near the top of my list to be honest.

Once it's all said and done my 'nice' rifle will be a Kidd setup...here's to hoping I can get my finances together so I can finish that and a few other things off.

I really like the stock it fits great and the m-lok makes life easier for me . When I first started on it I was split between Kidd , Tacsol & Volquartsen & honestly I went with the Tacsol based on the color but couldn't be happier with the craftsmanship and performance .

[Sequim Shooter]

I wanted a quality 10/22 so i put together a not too budget build.
PWS T3 action
Nikon P22 scope
Thompson Operative Integrally suppressed barrel
Ruger BX trigger
Magpul stock

It was fun. Until I went shooting with Sak007. You would think that a closed bolt action would be quieter than a semi auto. It wasn't. It wasn't even close.

So yes, I blatantly copied him. It's out now.
Now I have the Tacsol Xring receiver.

I decided on Kidd because I got to test out their triggers. After that I knew...

As for the stock you hit the nail on the head. I have a bunch of m-lok stuff so it will be nice to be able to use things interchangeably. That said I don't hardly run guns with anything 'extra' on them. I recently put an Arisaka light on my SBR and all I can say is 'just damn!'. I should have bought one of those a long, long time ago. But for the most part I don't make use of all the wigits out there. About the only thing I might use is my bipod, but who knows. I might discover something awesome like that light I got.

The other thing about that stock that I like is that it is modular. I can change up the LOP if I want or swap around that tray for a tapered barrel (probably never going to happen) but still nice to have, especially being able to adjust the LOP.

Right now the biggest thing I am thinking about is the barrel. That is still TBD. I have a basic idea but other than that...

First off welcome to WEVO! Great bunch here.

Second your rifle looks sweet! I like it a lot. What scope are you running?

I find your comment about the PWS very interesting. I saw a few of them up for sale here or there and I was quite tempted to get one while I could. At the end of the day though I decided to stick to a basic semi auto 10/22 design.

[Sequim Shooter]

Thank you for the nice welcome!

I have an old cell phone with a not very good camera.

Sak007 and I were on a "guns and parts" buying adventure. He was dropping off a G19 for custom work and I sold the PWS receiver to the shop owner for $200. The shop owner was super happy.

Everyone that shot it was truly impressed. It just wasn't as quiet as the X-Ring.

I also saw a picture on the Internet of the biathlon toggle bolt broken. Had me worried.

This X-Ring receiver has been flawless and quiet so far.

My wife has a sweet 10/22.

That's the exact reason I didn't get it. Proprietary parts. A long time ago Stickman and I were having a conversation (online) (not even sure if he remembers it or not) but we had the same kind of talk about AR's with proprietary parts...

I can honestly say in hindsight that was probably some of the best advice I have ever been given as relating to AR's and firearm type stuff.

I applied the same principle to the 10/22. If I ever need parts I want something standard that won't go out of production or whatever.

[Sequim Shooter]

I dumped a Smith and Wesson m&p 10 because all the parts were proprietary. They wouldn't sell me any spare parts. I would have had to send it in.

Back to the 10/22 discussion.

I had a hogue over molded stock that was comfortable. I like the magpul stock better. I was able to add plates to get a correct length of pull.

I'm still waffling on painting it.....mad customs is a short drive from me.

[Sak007]

You could paint it to match mine and come to terms with your copying issues

[Sequim Shooter]

Hey. When something is really good, it's good.



now I have to dump all of my suppressors....

Wait. What?

What all do you have? Why you want to dump them?
