Ok so I have a Ruger 10/22 youth model in an adult stock that I traded for yesterday. I am, on an almost zero budget (at least until I find work) going to try and tinker it up a bit to be competitive.
It's already got Williams fibre optic sights on it so that's a plus and it came with enough mags, but like most 10/22s the mag release is awful, the trigger is nothing special and the charging handle is dinky.
Charging handle is probably going to be one of those bolt on plastic bits, since the cheapest replacement I can find was $50-60.
Mag release can be polymer and ideally big for my fat fingers.
The trigger is where it gets expensive. Any recommendations for reasonably priced parts for the essentials? I'm going to need an auto bolt reelase too but those seem pretty cheap.
Eventually the stock will be swapped out, but the standard stock is fine for now.
Suggestions? And anyone with used parts to trade, I have ammo and such squirreled away
