...just sell barreled actions?
I mean, 9/10 people who shoot have bought a plain jane Ruger 10/22 only to put an aftermarket stock, barrel and even trigger units on them. I know myself personally have two factory wooden stocks and barrels from 10/22 sitting in my closet. Shure, I could sell them online, (an some I have) but who wants a factory barrel for a 10/22? Wouldnt it have made more sense money wise if Ruger just sold 10/22 recievers for about $100 a pop? I know I have wished more times than I care to remember that Remington just sold barreled actions for the model 700's. I know I would snatch up a bull barreled model 700 action in a New York minute simply because every Model 700 I own has an aftermarket trigger or stock on it, only to have that cheap factory synthetic stock take up space in a closet somewhere.
Or do they sell them???
