The stainless steel with synthetic stock version.

Pete:
congraduation on your new weapon I am sure you will enjoy it and I am speaking of the eperance I have has with the one I have. may i suggest that you get an extended Mag. release.

Unfortunately, here in Maryland we are limited to 10 round magazines. Unless are you talking about rotary nature of the magazine that comes with the gun? I did buy an extra 10 round magazine so at least I have 2.

The extended magazine release replaces the stock button release. Instead of pushing up on a button you now have a lever to push. Hope that makes sense. Here is a link,

Standard disclaimer applies, it was the first site i noticed with one.

There are also different shapes for the lever, so do a little research. You might want to shoot it for a while and then start modifying your rifle. Everything on a 10-22 can be changed, so if you don't like the function of something there is a modified part out there.

For mine i changed the stock. The barrel, 22" tapered s/s, don't like the look of the bull barrels that are popular with the target crowd. Mine will shoot five shot strings inside of your thumb nail at 50 yards with wally world ammo. Also added the extended mag release, the easy to use bolt release, and a new drop in trigger kit. The trigger kit reduces the trigger pull to 2 lbs. So don't ask me how much my $80 pawn shop rifle really cost me.

NYC limits us to a special 5 round Mag that Ruger makes - getting caught with a 10 round "standard" mag can get you 3 years. To register a 10/22, you have to prove you own a 5 round mag!!

Yikes! I hadn't heard of the five round limit. I guess tube fed semi-auto .22s are out or is there some sort of "plug" available to reduce the capacity of the magazine?

Nope, tube feed is fine for some reason (afaik)

Geez, sounds rather pointless.

It would make sense if they demanded that the 10/22 mag be permanently attached so you couldn't 1) slap in a magazine of larger capacity or 2) perform a quick reload with a second magazine.

You are assuming that anyone in NYC Government is LOGICAL

I know what happens when someone begins to assume.
