Lightest 10-22 folding stock?

Who builds the lightest and most compact folding stock for a 10-22
I have a AR-7 in my aircraft survival bag. I like the light weight and compactness but have not been pleased with the reliability of two different AR-7’s. So I am thinking that a 10-22 build could be a solution, I have a factory barrel that has been threaded and the front sight remounted and Barrel is. now 16 ¼”.

Any suggestions will be appreciated

Check out PDC Custom, not sure if thats what your looking for but they make Ruger folders.

did you check out the Takedown 10/22s yet? it may be cheaper to go that route

Agp makes the lightest and smallest folding stock. mine weighed in at 1.5 pounds

Since these look like less than 16" barrels and less than 26" length I assume they are registered as class 3 weapons. What is the procedure for that?

Register the rifle as an SBR.

Fill out papwerwork (ATF Form 1), get some signatures, pay $200 for a tax stamp, wait 6 months for paperwork to return. Done.

I bought a Ruger 10/22 Take Down a few months ago. I had the barrel cut, threaded for a suppressor and the front site re-installed. I also installed the Volquartsen trigger and hammer kit. It's a damn accurate little rifle. The scoped receiver, Buck Mark Camper, suppressor, extra mags and 4 boxes of ammo all fit in the Ruger carrying case with room to spare.

Nodak Sights

Front sight: NDS-23

Rear sight: NDS-26

Stock is a choate stock modified by Foxone-AZ on arfcom.

Register as SBR.

I would order a Rugar charger barrel that's been threaded. Plenty of vendors out there carry that barrel.
