I've been shopping the last several days for components to assemble/create a fun, lightweight 10/22 rifle.
I'm shocked at the high prices of components (receivers, barrels, trigger groups, stocks, etc).
It will probably end up as a gift to one of my daughters (age 35) who often shoots with me... since I already have a 10/22 that I love to shoot.
I'm not a guy after a precision rifle... I just enjoy the process of selecting various components that would make a good looking, lightweight, accurate (not perfect) rifle.
I built a few ARs a few years ago (including one for same daughter) and went through the same price shock... but was happy I built them / customized them the way I wanted... even though very similar completed ones were usually cheaper.
Guess I'll just have tbite the bullet
