Got a used 10/22

In the Richmond KY area it is proving difficult to find Ruger 10/22's, so I took matters to my local pawnshop and got the only wooden one for $160 (yes a lot for a used .22).

I took it home and dissembled it, and man was it in need of some TLC. I used over six pots of boiling water to make the bolt and carrier group unsludged! Man was it caked with goop. I suspect the previous owner just sprayed it after use, and the carbon mixed to make a gunk deposit.

I put a set of Weaver bases, and my new Burris Fullfield II on it. I am going to the range in just a few munites. I'll let you know if I got taken, or got a semi good deal.
