Does anybody know where I can get a new Ruger 22/45 frame?

I'd prefer a custom metal one, but I'd even take a factory one at this point.

You can sometimes, but very rarely, find them used. Frankly, for a cheap 22, get a Browning Buckmark.

For a 22 pistol that will outlive all of us, get a S&W Model 41. They're a little pricey, but worth it.

I've already got one 22/45 and was looking for a metal replacement frame for it. Or maybe building a complete competition one from scratch. Guess it just depends on the cost.

Been searching around a ton and its hard for me to believe that nobody makes after market frames.

Check the rugerforum.com. Someone was making some really cool anodized aluminum barreled receiver replacements. I just can't remember the name.

Crap. Nm. I just realized you were talking about the frame.
 
Re: Ruger 22/45 frame

Thanks for the reply, but that's not what I'm looking for.

Ive seen a number of barreled receiver replacements, not the frames though.
 
Re: Ruger 22/45 frame

There are no aftermarket frames of either type.
With the popularity of the TacSol barreled receivers, some enterprising fellow will surely begin making one.

Recently a frame went for like $275 on GB, or more than used guns sell for sometimes.
 
Re: Ruger 22/45 frame

I would sure have a use for some myself and anyone else that has factory barrels taking up space after replacing with Tac-.
