I recently picked up a suppressor in .22 that I'd like to use for plinking and squirrel hunting. I currently have a beautiful little Ruger 10/22 I love that shoots great, but the barrel isn't threaded. I'd love y'all's thoughts on what I should do here... I'm considering the following options, but I'm open to other ideas:
- Pay a gunsmith to thread the barrel on my 10/22 ($100-200)
- Order a threaded barrel for my 10/22 ($150-250)
- Order a new 10/22 with a threaded barrel ($350)
- Order a Ruger American Rimfire with a threaded barrel ($380)
- Order a Savage MkII with a threaded barrel ($250-350)
- Order another new rifle with a threaded barrel ($TBD)
