Anyone seen in person the Ruger 10/22 M1-C rifle. I am interested in one, but wondering if anyone has seen one in person. IDK if my local gun shop can get one anyway, as they are a Talo exclusive.

Yes, I gotta have the 10/22 version. I have a good selection of some of the other models, but was just made aware of this one recently. My local LGS and small store don't carry it in their inventory of firearms you can order from them online, so I have to give them a call. Maybe its not in the cards, but I gotta try. If you have guns, you know the feeling and know what I mean.

I finally got my 10/22 M1C, after an ordering glitch on the gun store, it was not ordered by them the day I thought I ordered it even though they said it was.
I have had it to the range already, with RGBs, Aguila red box, and Federal cheepies. No misfires or issues.
The build quality as far as the barrel and action is good, but the wood is a disappointment for a tribute gun, workmanship is shoddy, as in wood burrs and rough edges abound throughout. Makes me wonder if special editions are worth the extra dough, but I have ordered them before and the gun was perfect.
I really wanted this gun, and accept it for what it is, and do enjoy it. I bought it to use, not hang on the wall.

If you want to convert an existing 10/22 to the M1 look, EABrown offers an excellent Stock kit with all the accessories to make the build look authentic (sights, sling, etc.).
