david in germany Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 Ok I was looking into getting an AR for occasional shooting and a gun safe queen but the Germans charge you about $3k for a basic model AR and even once you purchase it you may not be able to keep it because it is considered a "weapon of war" So I started thinking of a cheap, fun to shoot alternative.. Ruger 10/22 I decided. I was looking for a bull barrel gun and thought about how easy it will be to build my own gun to my specs. So I decided to build one in an Archangel stock kit with a Shooter's Ridge fluted bull barrel. It will still take a month or 2 to have it added to my German weapons card but once I find one I can start buying parts! Anyone else have a custom plinker?

david in germany Posted December 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 im working on one. Its an AR though lol Your AR will probably be cheaper than my 10/22. Dealer quoted $605 for the stainless target model with bull barrel. It will save me 200+ in the long run not having to buy and ship the barrel later.

Yep, ouch.. My Mom is actually looking for one cheaper in Florida for me. Once she finds it and buys it I can add it to my Weapons card here in Germany and then she can simply send it through the post office to me.

Keith77 Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 (edited) Since you want an AR.. Can you get a Smith & Wesson MP15 22? Its an AR15 that shoots a .22Long round? Would they consider that to be a "weapon of war"... I have on and its fun to shoot. My dad shooting S&W AR15 22 Edited December 30, 2011 by Keith77 Quote Thats cool. Im way too old to be upset by shit like that. Your name is winston. Your own parents hated you even before you were born. My penis is bigger than your penis I'm far from loud and my roof/headliner flaps around like Adam's ass on a windy day. I think it depends more on the structure of the vehicle.

It could otherwise be called an attempted straw purchase. you dont want that.

Colin - STAPUFT Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 Both of these are the hot ticket right now. One of my co-workers is doing BOTH. Going to buy an AR and a 10-22. -then customize the 10-22. The cool part about the Rugers is that they are one of the most easily customized rifles out there. You can really make it your own.
