A new Ruger 10/22 at $800 plus ?

Sound crazy ?  Right ?   But it's true.

I have been shopping for a 10/22 for some time... I want one with walnut stock and a 20" barrel. but I couldn't find one. So I bought a wood stock with a 22" barrel off of Gun Broker out of Florida and had it sent to my FFL

Gun,tax, shipping.       $406.00

FFL trans fee.                 $40.00

Tally scope rings.            $50.00

Leupold rimfire 4X           $230.00

New 3# trigger group      $130.00

Total                               $856.00.  

Just nuts for a squirrel gun. 

Skwirl gun?  A single shot or bolt actin for under $200 is better than the 10/22. I know. I use all three.

10/22 has been overpriced for 15 years now

Yes lot of money but you got what you wanted.Plus you fixed the problem with the stock 10/22 there horable stock trigger.

Kind of misleading, almost half of that cost is for the scope, rings and new trigger. Could have saved some money here for just a "squirrel gun". 

I hear ya though, prices are out of hand. I got a 10/22 about 15 years, pretty sure it was right around $180 or less bare gun. Threw a $50 scope on and called it good. 

I got one here thats about 8 years old or so. unfired in the box. it has a mannlicer stock thats laminated. really pretty. I bought it from M.C. sports when they went out of bisness. 150 bucks.
