10/22 Take Down

[Colt556]

The gap is pretty noticeable from the side but I'm not sure if that would bother me that much or not. I don't expect that much for $289! I might pick one up if I can sell some stuff to fund it.

It seems like a place to catch dirt and-or become a possible pinch point.

I have to get one of these! I was leaning toward the 1022 compact, but I think I like the take down model better. For me the lighter weight is a bonus also.

I own one and it locks up pretty solid. I don't see any potential for a pinch point.

As far as a dirt catcher goes it is real easy to break it down and clean it out if need be. I guess anything is a possibility but again I don't foresee a problem.

They are a Blast

Took mine out this morning and the son and grandson put about 700 rounds through it. I replaced the sights with Williams Firesights and man is this thing on the money.

Thanks for the heads up on those. I got my rifle out for the first time yesterday. Only 120 rds, but it was flawless. Haven't decided on small scope or sights yet. I was looking at Tech Sights, but will add the Williams to my list.

Was the front sight an easy replacement?

 

[Simon6101]

Not bad

The sights are not that hard to replace as long as you know which way to remove them.

Is that from left to right, looking from the rear?


Thanks!

I picked mine up on Friday, haven't had a chance to shoot it but will be replacing the sights with the Williams. I had a standard 10/22 a long time ago which was a 22 magnum. I've always missed that gun and now I got something close enough.

 

[Simon6101]

Yep

Is that from left to right, looking from the rear?


Thanks!

Use a brass punch and some muscle

Thank you, sir. I just tapped the rear sight over a tad to get them sighted in, until I get a replacement sight system, or an optic. I had to get a bigger hammer.

I didn't see this thread until earlier today. Then seen that there's a few others about these TDs. I heard about it from a friend and found no one had one in the area so found one online for 299.00 Had it shipped to Fort Liberty Firearms in Avon, great bunch of guys.

So far the only thing I don't like about it is the front sight(can't see it too clearly) but that will be taken care of soon. I wonder if they did anything different with the trigger in these and if a better drop in will fit? Anyone check that out yet? Seems to be the same plastic one on the newer models from the outside.

Williams Firesight

I just got in some sets of the Williams Firesights at Bradis because I thought they would be popular on the 10/22 TD

Yes, this is my first plastic housing model.

Not thrilled about about it, but the takedown options make up for it.

This is my first 1022 but Im planning on either replacing the internals or just dropping in a kidd once i decide if i want a 1 or 2 stage.

 

[snake-doctor]

I'll call around and see if anyone has one in stock I can look at.

 

[Harry2110]

It seems that this gun is the ipad/iphone of the gun world

 

[maxmayhem]

put a 100 down on one of these from elmores 325 plus tax

the recoil is going to pinch you?
