10/22 TD threaded barrel

[studenygreg]

I recently got a dead air mask suppressor. My 10/22 takedown does not have a threaded barrel. Instead of getting a whole new rifle I figured I would just get a new barrel. There are a several companies that make 10/22 barrels. Just wanting to see if anyone had suggestions. I'm probably looking for 16" barrel. Something lightweight. I don't need carbon fiber or anything fancy.

I have the ruger 16" threaded barrel. It shoots fine, does about an inch at 50 yards with a red dot on a magpul mount.

I was looking at this one. Very interesting concept. Do you have one? How do you like it

I have one on a standard 10/22. It works great, with or without a can. Most of the can fits in the shroud so the gun is not "long".

Just have your current barrel threaded. By a machine shop or gunsmith.

I can't imagine that being much cheaper than a $200ish barrel

Commercial machines shops won't touch guns or gun parts unless they have the proper FFL. The feds have them all spooked. If you have a friend with a lathe, that knows his ass from a tool post, not a problem. Most gun smiths will take care of you, for about the same cost as a new barrel.

I don’t see 190.00 for a 30 minute job.

Your right, 30 minutes, it would be as straight as a dog's hind leg.

Did one today. 30 min. is generous if you know what you are doing.

Great, it takes me that long to change the tools, get it chucked, trued, and programed. And I aint even started yet.

Ok, I’ll give some on set up time , but once you are ready , it goes quickly…..Chuck it using the bore.

Agreed, turning is quick. I like to dress the crown while it is right there and all set up. Then touch up the finish unless it’s stainless. And I clean up the swarf and turnings before l can walk away, completely done. I know, pedantic, but It’s the way I was taught, by my Great Uncle, who now days would be called OCD.
