Head-to-Head: NEW Ruger Competition 10/22 vs. Custom 10/22 Build

Head-to-Head: NEW Ruger Competition 10/22 vs. Custom 10/22 Build

Ruger, at long last, has taken notice of the aftermarket 10/22 world, and late last year the company’s new Custom Shop put together the 10/22 Competition Rifle. It’s a sweet shooter, and it comes with all the bells and whistles you’d expect from a premium .22 firearm.

But how does it stack up against a custom build? That’s the question I wanted to answer, so I reached out to one of my gun buddies who owns one. Before we get down to the nitty-gritty, you should know a few things about Ruger’s new Competition 10/22.

The Vickers Elite has everything you need and nothing that you don’t. It is a well-thought-out pistol with a functional need for each feature.

Solid, Accurate, & Reliable: The Defiant STOCK 1 from Tanfoglio

Solid, Accurate, & Reliable: The Defiant STOCK 1 from Tanfoglio

Accurate and very comfortable in the hand, the Defiant STOCK 1 clearly has many uses beyond competition, including home defense, hunting, law enforcement use, open carry, and just plinking. It strikes me as a little large for concealed carry, but there are people who no doubt would find this full-sized handgun just right for that purpose, too.

What is more fun than shooting big, loud guns? Shooting big, quiet guns and that is a tested and proven fact. I had the opportunity to use the Silencerco Hybrid 46 suppressor and jumped on it because of my large collection of various caliber guns.

Ruger PCC 9mm – Versatility Redefined

I have finally gotten my hands on the last of my top 5 from SHOT Show 2018. And in a year of Pistol Caliber Carbines, the one I was most looking forward to. I am talking about the new Ruger PCC, of course, a gun that is all but guaranteed to punch way above its weight.

Radian Model 1 - Ambi Magic

Radian Model 1 – Ambi Magic

While I have used a lot of different AR pattern rifles, the Radian Model 1 with their ADAC system stands out to me.  I first saw it during Triggrcon 2018 in Bellevue, Washington. And to be honest, it blew my mind. I was asking myself how I never had seen this till now, since apparently it was first introduced around 2010, under the name AXTS.

The Glamorous Life and Gory Death of the Father of Sin City Bugsy Siegel, the M1 Carbine, and Murder Inc.

What particular attributes did it take to attain the pinnacle of success in organized crime back in its heyday? Some were charming, quite a few connected, and others were ruthless. Benjamin “Bugsy” Siegel, however, was simply a cold-blooded killer.
