Samson Manufacturing B-TM Folding Stock: Bull Barrel Compatible

The Ruger 10/22 with a heavy barrel is a popular rifle for myriad reasons. Not only is it a great rifle for plinking, but it’s also excellent for hunting small pests and varmints and teaching new shooters the ropes. And, of course, it’s a solid choice as a pack gun for your bugout bag or hiking pack. Thanks to Samson Manufacturing, you can now upgrade your Ruger 10/22 with a heavy barrel with their B-TM Folding Stock for even greater portability and versatility.

The B-TM Bull Barrel Folding Stock for the Ruger 10/22 with bull barrel/heavy barrel compatibility is meant to optimize the gun’s overall performance and open possibilities for transport and storage. This model includes the folding stock itself and the forend. The stock is available in either stainless steel or black while the forend is made of dark-stained walnut. This aftermarket product is designed for drop-in installation and specifically created for compatibility with the Ruger 10/22 with a Bull Barrel with a diameter of up to .940″ and a minimum length of 9.2″.

Dimensions of the folding stock, when collapsed, are a length of 16.75″, height of 5.5″, and width of 3.5″. Extended, it’s 26.25″ long, which doesn’t include whatever barrel length extends beyond the stock. It has a 12.5″ length of pull which is a reasonable length for the average shooter. The folding stock weighs 2.2 lbs., meaning it won’t add significant bulk to your 10/22.

MSRP for the Samson Manufacturing B-TM Bull Barrel Folding Stock for Ruger 10/22 is set at $279.99 for the stainless version and $299.99 for the black version (both have a dark walnut forend).
