    According to Volquartsen, each stock is individually made and not mass manufactured on a duplicator. As with the company’s other laminated stocks, these are CNC machined with the inletting done while the blank is at its most rigid.

    The suggested retail price on these stocks is $350 regardless on color.

    Volquartsen also offers a lightweight carbon fiber barrel for the 10/22 Takedown.

Volquartsen uses a barrel tensioning system in this assembly. The barrel is threaded (1/2″x28) and includes a thread protector. The barrel assembly weighs in at an even two pounds. This barrel kit has a retail price of $315.

    Volquartsen also offers fully customized 10/22 rifles including the Takedown model. Recently, the company announced it was offering a limited run of 10/22 Takedown models with a Magpul OD green stock.
