NZ / Blonde Laminated 10/22 - How Common? Value?

Yes what Chet said, I don't think it will be a Factory Gun but if it does turn out to be I will be very interested in it if you want to part from it. I have pretty much all the Factory Laminates I have never seen or heard of a SS NZ.

Thanks for the info. I did not get an answer form Ruger today, was busy and finally after being on hold for a while got the direct number for records for tomorrow.

Will keep you guys posted, sounds like it is quite unlikely it is a factory release but time will tell.

Well you guys were 100% correct. It was originally shipped with a birch stock. The NZ stock was added to it by someone after it left the factory (who knows who). Gun still appears to be unfired and in the box with all original paperwork.

Now deciding what I am going to do with it. I have a brand new 1993 birch stock here I might put on it and sell it.

Any idea what a brand new "NZ" stock would go for in the current market?

Thanks!

I would say $40-80 But on ebay you never know.
