Heck it’s not really that bad of a deal on the little revolver with both .22lr and .22Mag cylinders.

Gallery of Guns has a few for sale.

Don't get me wrong, I generally like Ruger. But, they do have a way of throwing collectors into a tizzy. I won't be surprised if there's ten of them stocks made that have the chicken facing the other direction just so Ruger collectors will have something to beat each other up over on GunBroker in ten years.

Lol, about as much love for Ruger here as Hornady. I thought seeing something in a wood stock might be liked.

Oh I would say it's that bad

I wouldn't want that stuff on a rifle. Not pretty.

Wood stocks are great. Hand carved can be works of art.

Laser engraving is ok for what it is. We owned a laser for quite a few years. It can enhance the looks of an item, but, it can also be taken a bit overboard. I think the rifle stock is the latter.

Yes, it’s a little much. I am a fan of the acorn leaves and basket stamping, but the spelling out of 10/22 and 2025 kind of takes that away.https://ruger.com/products/1022Sporter/specSheets/31237.html

Hahaha. Yup, my son is a hand engraver (lbengravings) with a fine arts degree and is a member of FEGA. Don't get me started!

Edit: googly-foo returns several results that are not him. I will post a link to his work in a few

I like the pistol. I wouldn't refuse the revolver. The rifle would be gone as soon as I could find some patsy, uh collector, with money to part with.

I noticed the rifle is not engraved on the left side, for whatever that’s worth.

The rifle reminds me of a tattoo covered woman. A little bit can be tasteful, but to me this is overdone.

I wonder if they are also engraved with that iconic phrase, "PLEASE READ INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE USE". jd

More than likely.
