My 10/22 Tacticool build updated w/ Nordic AR22 kit
Hello, I'm pretty much new here and this is my first 10/22 build. Bought it new in November as a compact model. I've tried a few stocks and ended up with the Archangel 556. Before that I had the Hogue OM and the Christie and Christie Superstock. I stuck with the Archangel kit as it feels similar in size and weight with my AR.
I am very happy with the results I've had with this rifle. It's a TACDRIVER at 50yds and quite accurate at 100yds. I built this rifle for fun and VERY fun it is! These were shot w/ Federal Bulk Ammo and on bipod. 30 rounds shot @ 50yds @ 100yds I have probably around 2000 rounds through this rifle all with either Blazer/Federal/Winchester bulk ammo with ZERO Failures! Love this thing... HAHA! Well, here's the list of goodies that I have done to it and pics to follow hope you like my tacticool build and thanks for looking! Archangel 556 kit CAA butt stock 16in GM fluted barrel Volquartzen Extractor Bill Springfield reworked trigger 2 1/2 lb pull Custom reworked stock bolt Magpul MBUS Magpul AFG2 TacSol Extended Mag release BSA Sweet 3-9x scope Troy rail covers Skeleton charging handle Ruger 10rd mag epoxied onto a Faux mag Last edited by 151proof; 04-10-2012 at 11:47 AM.. |

Update as of 4/9/12
Thanks for the comments guys! Since my last post here, my AR has gone through a complete makeover and Ive sold the Archangel kit and GM Barrel to my brother in law, who got an awesome deal for them! I had alot of AR parts laying around from the makeover and decided to buy the Nordic AR-22 kit. I've installed the following as the Nordic chassis accepts most if not all milspec parts: Nordic AR-22 chassis Factory 16in barrel w/ Archangel slip on cover MI 9in FF Quad Rail Milspec Buffer Tube Magpul CTR w/ .70 Buttpad BSA 3-9x Scope w/ PEPR mount Bushnell TRS-25 Red Dot w/ offset mount Magpul MOE grip Grip Pod Factory reworked trigger and Bolt Troy Rail Covers On to the pics! Pretty much done with this build and the only thing I'm waiting on to buy is a 16in TacSol threaded barrel. Pretty happy with how she shoots even with the factory barrel. Handles real well as it feels just like my AR. This setup weighs in at 8.2lbs on my bathroom digital scale, not too bad. Last edited by 151proof; 04-10-2012 at 11:48 AM.. |

Fun gun for sure!
I see you made your own mag cover to get the 5.56 caliber look. Archangel is advertising new straight mags for 10/22s...10 rounds for CA, 25 rounds for the free states. You can get a slip-on AR style mag cover for them. I've had this set-up on order for over a month and have not got anything yet.

I could break it down but alot of stuff were left over parts from my AR and given to me by friends. But I can make a quick list of prices.
10/22 Compact - $220 new Archangel kit - $75 used GM 16in Bull Barrel - $95 new BSA 3-9x scope - $39 new Bill Springfield trigger rework - $57 Custom Bolt rework - $75 new Volquartsen Extracter - $11 new TacSol Extended Mag Release - $5 used I believe that's everything. So estimated total is $577 as it sits now. I never would've known I spent that much on this rifle til now. Most of the stuff I bought new we're on sale from the holidays. I guess when you piece everything together it doesn't hurt the wallet that bad... |

Haha! Thanks, I am really enjoying this 10/22! Probably ran around close to 8000 rounds through it with maybe 5-8 failures. Very reliable gun! |
