    Default 10/22 Barrel and options

    Ladies and Gents,
    Surfin' around online there seems to be a myriad of after market barrels and rings for the 10/22 but they are all the same. I have a want that is particular but cannot seem to locate it. Can you help?

    1. I would like to find an 18 inch bull or .920 barrel that is fluted, blued/black in color, with rifle sights, and a threaded end. The rifle sights is where it becomes a no-go as it seems everyone expects you to have a scope. I don't want to install rifle sights myself and I have no equipment or faith in my mechanical abilities, lol. I want both functions (scope ability and irons), which lead me to the second hunt:

    2. Scope rings that have a "peep" hole/see through to still use irons... I've seen them for more expensive rifles but not for the .22lr. Any help out there for this one?

    Thoughts?

    For sights, I think tech sights are the best. http://tech-sights.com/

    I like that. Looks like an old M1 setup. Clicking on 10/22 and scrolling down about half way, I LOVE that barrel thread protector witht eh dovetail so you can put in the front sight. That's kewl!!

    However, still does not solve the problem of a rear sight and scope at the same time....

    Still looking.

    You are right, the tech-sight mount to the rail holes so you can not have both at the same time. You could get a standard Ruger front sight (barrel mounted) and the slip on dovetail to hold the end sight. Would require some smithing but not much.

    Using the tech sight front mount... does anyone know of a fold down rear sight that will fit on the rear of the barrel to complete the iron sight setup?

    I really would like the functionality of irons and scope.
