Need to get a .22 lr suppressor set up but have no practical experence. Would like to set up one that will work with a 10/22 and also a high standard. I know that I have to get barrels for both models threaded, etc. but is this best way to go? Looking for a common sense approach that is not going to break the bank.
Note; Mainly to pick of pests off in my backyard, etc. My next door neighbor has a couple horses so you know how that goes. |

Already had an AAC element that I use with a MkII.
So, I started working on setting up a 10 22 myself. So far the set up costs haven't been too bad. Cost of rifle, then sent original barrel to a smith to be threaded for $75.00. Why buy another barrel? Get to know a good Smith. |

Ruger now sells the 10/22 threaded, so at least you don't have to go through that step.
ETA: I agree with the others, get a can you can service yourself. Way less hassle. Also, if you already have the 10/22, TAC makes a good threaded barrel but you give up the sights. Aquila Precision Firearms is awesome, they will thread your barrel and maintain your sights. The guy is excellent! I run a TAC-65 and have no complaints, but you'll have to tune your 10/22 to run subsonics. |

Quoted:
It needs to be user servicable. That is it. A home made soda blaster or a DIP solution will get either aluminum or SS clean. The SS cans tend to be a little more durable and easier to really scrape clean. You don't want to use "the dip" on aluminum cans or parts, it will literally eat the aluminum. I use a soda blaster on them and they come out shiney clean in a jiffy, although breathing protection is a must. |
