Rinse and repeat: I did a thing…no two things…

I already owned three .22 LR rifles and a couple of handguns, but a few days ago, I bought my very first Ruger 10/22. I bought the Carbon Fiber model with the Magpul X-22 stock and carbon fiber-wrapped stainless steel barrel. I also bought a Silencerco Sparrow suppressor for it, my first 4473 suppressor transfer.
Out of the box, the rifle weighs just 3-1/2 lbs (56 oz). The suppressor weighs just 6-1/2 oz. The Magpul M-Lok bipod I bought weighs 11 oz. So far, we’re at 4.6 lbs. Unless I decide on an RDS, the weight of a scope and rings isn’t going to exceed another 1 to 1-1/2 pounds, so the all up weight with all accessories is going to come in between 5-1/2 to 6 lbs….not too bad for carrying around a squirrel and beer can assassin.
Here’s a pic of the base rifle.
