sling on a 10/22

[Guest Boonie]

i just bought a new ruger 10/22 stainless with blue laminated stock and was wanting to install a sling on it. will it decrease the value on the rifle? or should i just forget about the sling? by the way i bought the rifle from HERO-GEAR and let me say they:rock:.

If you want a sling, sling it. If you want a collector, never shoot it and put it back in the box and wait 20 years. It might be worth more then. If it were me, I'd shoot it, sling it, scope it, customize it. Have fun!!!

Ditto, it might make it more or less valuable depending on who's buying it. If you want a sling put one on and enjoy it.

10/22s are a dime a dozen.You will never sell it for what you got in it so shoot it,sling it,pick your butt and wipe your nose with it but most of all enjoy it.
