I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but who can splain to me why Ruger felt there would be a market for the "man-licker" stock 10/22? Personally, I think it is ugly. Looks like something some second rate army in Eastern Europe would carry.
And that's exactly the bigger point. Ruger is an American company that takes pride in making firearms here in America. Notable among their recent newer offerings are the SR1911 and the Ruger American Rifle. Just seems weird to make a Euro-flavored 10/22 right now.
Meanwhile, try to find a regular sporter with a walnut stock. They are really scarce.
