My 10/22 started out life as a '88 model SS carbine all metal & wrapped in a nice birch stock. It was my go to squirrel gun. Then I decided to refinish the stock. That was just the beginning of my quest for the ultimate 10/22. I have stripped the reciever & trigger housing & lightly sanded them to get the texture I wanted & re-finished them with automotive grade clear coat. I found a really in depth tutorial somewhere online (I think at rimfire central) & tuned my trigger & sear myself & it's right at 2.5 lbs & nice & crisp, I stoned, honed & polished all the sear, disconnect & hammer surfaces, radiused & polished the trigger plunger, chamfered & polished the bolt, nylon bolt buffer, exact edge extractor, VQ firing pin that's been pinned, polished the guide spring rod, added a shooters ridge 18" fluted SS bull barrel with Bentz match chamber, Boyd's laminated thumb hole stock, full floated the barrel with pressure point, have my choice of 3-9X32 silver bushnell scope on a weaver rail or Red Dot, which ever is appropriate for what I'm shooting. I think that covers everything. I am currently looking for a set of fiber optic sights that will mount on a .920" bull barrel but I'm having trouble finding some. It's too nice to drag in the woods now so I've picked up a nice Remington 597 semi auto with composite stock & heavy barrel to hunt squirrells with. I also have a Ruger mark lll 22-45 that I plan to hunt with this fall.

How do go about doing that, so your bolt will release upon pulling back on handle?.... Thanks

I had before and after pics but I lost them when my phone crapped out.

This shows the part pretty clearly. If you need further directions on disassembling just check out the related videos. If you have any questions don't be a afraid to ask.

Lilbailnick, when you take the bolt lock/release plate out of your rifle there's a heart shaped hole in it at the top. You grind or file the peak out of the top of it do it's no longer heart shaped. You can't just file it flat though it needs to have a little curve to it.
