What Kind of Parts Can You Get for The Ruger 10/22
Like any other popular firearm, the Ruger 10/22 also has excellent aftermarket support. There are loads of different parts you can buy for your Ruger 1022, and here are some of the most popular ones.
Barrels
Many people choose to install aftermarket barrels on their 10/22s. You can get lightweight fluted barrels, or if you want an extremely lightweight competition build, some manufacturers also make carbon fiber barrels for the Ruger 10/22. These barrels are more rigid than steel barrels and hence have lower barrel harmonics and improved accuracy as well.
Competition Bolts
Many aftermarket brands also make competition bolts for the Ruger 10/22 platform. These competition bolts can have stronger construction, with titanium firing pins, and have a smooth finish, which results in lower friction and smoother operation of the rifle.
Compensators
The 10/22 is a very smooth shooting rifle with minimal recoil. However, adding a compensator can make it shoot like a laser, with almost zero recoil. Several brands make excellent compensators and other muzzle devices for the Ruger 10/22 platform.
Triggers and Controls
To complete the competition package, you need to have an enhanced trigger as well, and since 10/22 is such a popular option for target shooting, many brands make light competition triggers for it. You can also get extended controls for the 10/22, like an extended magazine release or bolt. These upgrades will help you operate your rifle faster
