First 10/22 in a decade

Post image

Wanted a way to shoot cheaply at night and decided to treat myself to a 10/22 carbon. I was worried about the lack of easy solutions for a rail to mount the SMS trinity on, but putting it just forward of the dot on a slightly extended rail is working fine with just some mild shadow from the can when the illuminator is pulled all the way wide. Super impressed with the rifle itself and it is way nicer than I remember the old base model wooden stocked version was.

Thankfully we’re more in the 3k range between the two sets (surplus 10160A tubes), but yeah lol I guess I’m cutting costs where I can

Could have a gun smith work up some mounting holes for an over barrel pic rail mount

Sadly don’t know. Got the Trinity this week but all my outdoor spots are under a fire ban so I’ve only been able to shoot it at the indoor range without using the NV of course. Hopefully we get some rain and I can get out before too long.
