New build with VQ LLV upper

[AzShooter1]

Here is my latest build on my Ruger Mark IV 22/45 Lite frame.

Volquartsen 6 inch LLV barrel, C-More site with 12 minute dot, Guba Riba sight cover and blast shield, VQ upgraded internals, Tandemkross Victory Trigger set at 1 pound 13 oz., Tandemkross Halo Bold Charger, StonerCNC grips.

Next I intend to add the VQ compensator.

Been procrastinating adding a LLV to a VQ lower I've had as a pistol for the boy. Already have the red/black VQ laminate grips he wanted. Just gotta go to the dealer and get it transferred in. Want the 6" model but unsure of threaded or not. No desire for a suppressor but undecided on adding the compensator later if the boy wants it. It'll get a Burris Fastfire like his 10/22.

All fabricated by hand?

I got a good deal on mine at Brownells.com.

It's probably impolite to ask but......how much do you have in that thing? I know what my MkIV Stainless Target with a Volquartsen Accurizing kit, C-More Railway (8 moa dot), Ruger Picatinny rail, VQ extractor, and Ruger's laminated wood grips cost and it was plenty thank you!

Mark IV 22/45 Lite $450.
VQ LLV upper on sale at Brownells with last minute Christmas bonus, $300.
VQ Internals $100
TK Victory Trigger $35
C-MOre Site $230
Halo charging handle $44.

About $1100 and change. Still cheaper than my last revolver build. The C-More is left over from an old build so I really shouldn't count that into the price.

Ruger Standard would have only set me back $300 but it wasn't available when I got the 22/45.

Not as expensive as I imagined. Does the VQ LLV upper use the stock Ruger bolt and recoil spring assembly and did you retain it? I've looked at the VQ replacement bolt and it alone is about 1/2 the price of the stock gun.

The money I have in my MkIV stainless Target is about $100 more than you for the base gun but about the same for the VQ internals and C-More and relatively small amounts for a VQ extractor and Ti firing pin so about $950 all up. About $100 more can be included for the 4 additional magazines I bought.

Yes it does use the stock Ruger bolt and recoil spring assembly. I finally got out and tested it today and it's a dream gun. Best groups I've fired in a long time. I just shot Wolf Match Extra, Blazer and CCI Mini Mags. I wanted to shoot CCI SV but forgot to put a box in my bag.
