Update...Well, Betty Lou got up and made an executive decision...The store run has been postponed until Wednesday...She says it too cold to leave the dogs out while we're gone. I've learned that it's best not to comment when it comes to the dogs. They are her pseudo children. Tomorrow we have to be home for our vape product delivery.. it requires an adult signature... so Wednesday it is. I suspect that shopping list will grow by then anyhow. Hey, I'm just the guy that pushes the cart, pays the cashier and carries the groceries into the house.But it's all good... It just means I can get to my 'tinkering' sooner...

But to be honest... she sneaks in way more stuff than I do.
Lookin' Good Swamp.For me tinker, even in the simplest form, is as fun as shooting.
Both of those barrels are .22. I'm leaning towards the shorter one. Once I put that silencer back on, I think it will be the perfect length carbine. It feels a bit long and awkward as it is and that longer option is the same length as the one on it now.I also found a .22 bolt with an aftermarket bolt knob made if delrin.And in the white plastic envelop is a brand new Ruger 10/22 PB flip up peep sight.I have one of those on each of the 2240 stubbies and the are great once I drill them out a bit to get rid of the "spider web" affect.They flip down so as not to interfere with a red dot or scope.
I also have the option of bringing that rear cocker back to it's original pistol form and making this gun a regular side cocker.

I would like to try one myself
Sorry about that little delay but around here, when Betty Lou says breakfast is done one must respond.. if not the dogs eat well and daddy goes hungry.
