[Rifle] Ruger 10/22 Carbine with threaded barrel, iron sights, walnut. At Academy $250

Model is 31242, and I couldn't find details about that Ruger part anywhere. I've picked one up, and can confirm, that model number isn't a typo. Specs listed are accurate.

I’m at academy right now buying one, it’s a blued barrel as per the box

So glad I bought mine years ago for 200 before Ruger started cost reducing even more.
Black lammy compact 👌🏻
RockyFromCollections@reddit
Is this a 16” or 18”?
clever_unique_name@reddit
The link to Academy says 18.5".

18.5

Can't wait for the new academy to open near me. I miss out on all these in-person deals.
apogeeman2@reddit
Def not walnut.
And nothing to do with OP, I hate that Ruger quit blueing the barrels on these.
possum-fucker@reddit
What is it now? Nitride or something?
apogeeman2@reddit
Ruger calls it “black satin” I’d love to know what it actually is.
Okiekid1870@reddit
They’re still blued.

Nice to see that (as a stand alone barrel). All the new model basic production ones have that “black” finish. Maybe I’ll run up to academy and check on this one.
Okiekid1870@reddit
The pictures look blued, not black.
apogeeman2@reddit
I agree
Technical-Banana6902@reddit
When did they stop bluing the barrels on 10/22s? I haven’t noticed that yet
apogeeman2@reddit
You’d have to go back and look on advertisements etc, but go to their site and you’ll see the basic 10/22 and several others “satin black” as the barrel finish. The stocks have been “hardwood” (not walnut) for forever now.
PutridNest@reddit (OP)
Walnut stained birch, I believe.

Got a UPC-? I can't find anything on 3 big wholesaler websites

Thanks- Dead end also on UPC.
Looks like the basic 1103 model , UPC # 736676011032 but threaded.
PutridNest@reddit (OP)
Seems strange that Academy would get an exclusive and not promote it.
apogeeman2@reddit
I believe Sports South is their biggest distributor they work with, wonder if they have it in their catalog.
Wunktacular@reddit
This is a walnut stock in the same way that a Red Baron pizza out of the microwave is "artisan style brick oven".
There is no brick oven or artisan involved and it came out of the freezer, but uh, it's all pizza so the details don't matter.
These are soft wood chipboard with a fake pattern on top, for the uninitiated.
justamiqote@reddit
Since when? I bought one a few years ago and just finished stripping the wood. It's a wide-grain pale wood with a walnut stain on it.
RocketTaco@reddit
Are they fucking really? Why bother, I'd rather save the cash and get synth at that point. Man I know the market doesn't want the price on these to ever go up, but the list of corners cut is getting pretty long.
Wunktacular@reddit
They've been doing this since at least 2019 when I bought a carbine with one on it.
I believe the sporters are actual walnut, and of course the laminate models will feel a bit more solid being laminate.
angriest_man_alive@reddit
Sometimes its european walnut or some other pretender wood that coasts on the good and hard earned named of AMERICAN BLACK WALNUT 🦅
…. Sometimes
tedjjj@reddit
They also have 16” syn stock threaded for the same price fyi.

PutridNest@reddit (OP)
Nice find.
apogeeman2@reddit
No barrel sights on synthetic one
FasterThanYourMom@reddit
Looks like this one has an optics rail too. Better deal than the wood one.
Measurex2@reddit
The wood one has it in the box. You don't want either though if you run a scope. Instead you want one of the longer ones that hangs off the front. The stock ones are tiny and get the scope too far back.

Ranklaykeny@reddit
Not that anyone doesn't already know this, but this gun is so fun. Easily the rifle I shoot the most. Especially because 400 rounds is like $30.
bobleeswagger804@reddit
Fun fact: this is an assault weapon in the state of New York.
sgtabn173@reddit
Can I use this as a donor for a magpul hunter x stock?
Toidal@reddit
You could check for OEM parts on S&P to see if it might be cheaper or spend a little more for a nicer barrel, albeit I think they only have threaded bull and takedowns at the moment. There's a 16in threaded bull barrel though
biobennett@reddit
Yes
arethius@reddit
Yes
mynewaccount5@reddit
$50 off so don't feel obligated to rush into this.
Ccnagirl@reddit
No swivels :(
kpeterson159@reddit
Ehhh, I bought one because it’s threaded
I_SNORT_KITTENS@reddit
I hate this color of wood, but I bought it anyway. Smokin' deal. Thanks for posting. I've been waiting for one at a good price to start my 11 year old on at the range.
iHadou@reddit
Any easy, non sticky ways of recoloring this? I've been waiting on the 10/22 black with threaded but I always miss it
BickenBackk@reddit
Sand and stain
