How wrong does this look on 10/22?

[dandechino]

Still waiting for sling. The rifle was a hand-me-down and it looks like he drilled this hole in the stock already a long time ago... don't judge me...

So wrong it blurred the first pic, jk. What it comes down to is, does it work?

You can pick up a used (many times new out of the box practically) factory stock pretty easy. People are always upgrading their stock and barrel on these

It's that bad huh?

[Chaos47]

No its not that bad.
If you got it for free why not drop a lil cash on it and get a better stock anyways?

It looks goofy but it could be worse.

It looks real wrong to me. I can't tell by the photo but is the stock birch,or walnut? If it's birch you could easily purchase another one for very little cost. If it's a walnut stock that's another story since they are getting harder to find.

heh

That's why my walnut stock is sitting in my closet, undrilled, and my spare crappy birch stock has the sling stud for the bipod mount.

[dandechino]

well the hole has always been there. I can just drill another one. lol

Birch???? I aint got not stinkin birch. I was just looking at some extra stocks the other day and I have three walnut carbines and a walnut Deluxe for extras. I thought about parting with one of them but the figure in the grain on the walnut is just too nice. I guess that I'm just a certified hoarder. As a side note, there is a barrel/stock clamp that has a stud in it that accepts a sling swivel.

That thing is so fugly, box it up and send it to me. Ha I kid I kid, I got a stock taking up room in my safe if you want it for free99. Lmk.

Looks ok, and might just give you better accuracy than the barrel band mounted version that most ppl use (downward pressure on the barrel band might have an effect on accuracy).

Umm, wouldn't downward pressure on the stock that's attached to the barrel via the barrel band do the same thing? If anything being further forward would give a sling more leverage to apply pressure to the barrel.
