Now the rifle I'm thinking about putting together if it works is with Volquartsen parts, retail for the parts is somewhere in the $1,752.00 range. :shock: Insane I know, but the rifle............ 8-)


You could buy a rifle capable of winning 3-position smallbore at the olympics for that much money.......

So Ron, if you are into those excellent rifles, I will do you a favor and take that junky used GSG-5 off your hands.

Hell, I will even pay you what you paid for it when you bought it new. 8-)

Bills North had a couple GSG-5Ls on the wall this afternoon. I didn't check if they were new builds with the riveted ejector from factory. (ATI is apparently accepting rifles with spot welded ejectors back to rivet them because of instances where earlier builds had ejector's welds letting loose). Surprisingly, the price was like elsewhere in town on these.

I know you are trying to maybe help me out, but I feel the need to help Ron.

Ron, ignore onebohemian, I would like to do you a favor as a friend and take cheap plastic thing off your hands. :D

Hmmm. Looks familiar. :hmm:
Here's mine next to my Stevens old school tactical .22.

I know the guys that make this 10/22 stock chassis and their theory is that the .22 uppers for AR's can be finicky so they decided to try this with a 10/22.
I used some parts I already had and for the rest I used a DPMS certificate that I received for ROing the Tri-Gun and also dropped in a Volquartzen hammer and bolt release.

Of course I had to buy another standard 10/22 to replace it. I think I see a pattern developing here. :?

Single shot Stevens has duct tape+Surefire G2 but has proven deadly on critters with subsonics around my property. :D
Yeah, but I shoot with THIS hand.

Don't know why it wouldn't fit in there. My Ruger receiver was a tight fit and shows some scratches from the Nordic unit but nothing visible with the chassis in place and I don't plan on removing it very often. That is one comlaint. There really isn't a good way to take it apart to clean it. You pretty much have to take the chassis off and then take the Ruger apart to clean it.
