Stock or additional LOP options for a 16" 10/22

The 16" barrel came on the Compact, but they did not have a barrel band, sound like your stock may be a Carbine stock that was cut. There are lots of new stock options available as well as finding a take-off original. Rim Fire Central is where you should go for all the info on care of your 10-22, join today.

$100 is a good price if it's in decent shape. The barrel band is just for looks, to make it resemble the M-1 Carbine on which it was modeled.
I have built at least a dozen from bare receivers, they are lots of fun to play with since there are tons of aftermarket parts available for them.
Here are two I put together for my teen daughters:


And this one for my son:

It should fit into any stock for a 10/22.

There are many options, but for simple, longer, and budget-minded, the Hogue rubberized comes to mind:

As noted above, the barrel band typically comes on the carbine model which has an 18" barrel, and the barrel band does nothing.

Some stocks are made for bull barrels. If you get one of these, it will work fine, but you'll have some extra clearance around the barrel. It will however, give you the option of upgrading the barrel later without requiring a new stock.

Welcome to the rabbit hole.

The Hogue is a good durable field stock for general use. Here are a few Liberty Training Rifles I put together using the Hogue's:

I've been very happy with the Blackhawk Axiom stock. It's adjustable, incredibly lightweight, and relatively cheap. MSRP is $89.95, but they are widely available under $70. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Blackhawk...10-22/20753488 It fits everyone, and is easily adjusted without tools.

That's it in my avitar.

The Rabbit Hole indeed.

Much appreciated. I will sell one of the small extra stocks I have, so I can shoot until she inherits it.

If I don't buy a new one and go nuts upgrading it, that is.

There is so much you can do to a 10-22, one esteemed member at Rim Fire Central has coined the name, Ten Tweeky-Two for the rifle.
