    Ruger 10/22 bolt release (upgrade)

    I spent my Sunday cleaning guns and working on my 10/22's. When I first started modifying one of my 10/22's a few years back it seems I put a Voltsquarsen (sp?) modified bolt release on it. Until recently I never really used the bolt lock on my rifles... then I got a Charger and did some...

    Shortest Legal Rifle
