A good tip is to always store it in a climate-controlled environment. Humidity can ruin the finish. Keep it clean and oil it regularly, too!

Good advice! A well-maintained firearm not only performs better but also retains its collectible value. I’m curious about how much it’s currently worth as well.

I picked mine up for $500 last year, complete with all original packaging. Seems like a decent deal now.

There’s definitely a market for anniversary editions. But some people think they carry too much hype. Do you think it’s worth all the fuss?

Has anyone tried to resell their Ruger 10/22 Anniversary model? Just wondering what the experience has been like.

I sold mine after a few years, and it was a great return on investment! Just be prepared for some negotiating.

It’s got a great reputation. If you can maintain it well, it’ll only appreciate in value. Just don’t let it sit in the closet collecting dust!

Haha, so true! I’ve seen some people make that mistake and then wonder why it lost its charm. Keep it in action!

I’m also interested in customization options for the 10/22. I’ve heard that Volquartsen makes some great trigger upgrades that really enhance the shooting experience. What are people using?

Absolutely! I installed their trigger kit and it’s a game changer. Super crisp pull which improves accuracy. Highly recommend it!

I have a custom stock from Boyds that adds a nice touch. It maintains the integrity of the rifle while giving it a unique look. Anyone else tried their stocks?

I did the same! The Boyds stock really makes my 10/22 stand out at the range. What color did you choose?

I went with a classic walnut finish. It complements the anniversary edition perfectly. Anyone consider adding a scope? I think it could really enhance precision.

A scope is a great idea! I use the Leupold VX-Freedom 2-7x33 on mine, and it works wonders for shooting at longer ranges. Just make sure the rings are solid!
