dizzny1 Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 I have recently purchased a conversion kit for a ruger 10/22, which included everything but the receiver and the bolt group(pretty much everything you can buy without a ffl). Upon closer inspection of my kit, I found out that it has a serial number of "00002". My question is is there anyway that I can get a ruger 10/22 receiver made without a top rail (pretty much stock) with this serial? or some variation? any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Oh and by the way, it must be LEGAL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmurff Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 At first though I'd have to say no, I don't think you can get a receiver with a requested serial number. I would imagine you could get just a receiver from Ruger and have them ship it to your local ffl. Give Ruger customer service a call, they are very friendly folk and see what they can do for you (603) 865-2442. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asmurff Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 They give you a reason they wouldn't just sell you a receiver. At a guess it was something a lawyer would say ::) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry in SD Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 Shooters Discount sells Ruger 10/22 & Ruger Charger Receivers. I bought a Stripped Ruger Charger receiver from them about a year ago. They also have all the parts needed to assemble the receiver once you have the receiver.

dizzny1 Posted March 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 yes, but the problem is can I get a custom serial number? the serial number on my saw is "002" I was looking for one that would allow me to make up my own serial, some variation or mk46002 or something along those lines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imschur Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 I think the issues is often times the serial number stuff is automatic and nobody is going to disrupt production, especially when the stuff isnt made in house.Firearms like custom 1911's can be ordered with custom serial numbers. I will be doing it shortly myself. Im getting a 1911 Caspian frame "Yogi1" or something to that affect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
