It was very east to install. Gives my 10/22 a whole new feel. Very rugged and durable.

Shiped in 2 pieces with all hardware, has the feel of carbon fiber plastic. Trigger and barrel assembly went right in to stock end with a little finesse. For end was a different story. Very, very tight, with only half the screws lining up. Had to heat, twist and force the two pieces together. After full assembly barrel wasn’t even close to being centered in for grip. Top rail is not flat, not sure how this will effect sighting in. I like the look but don’t think I would recommend. To be able to clean, you must disassemble the entire stock assembly including unmounting optic to get to the 4 screws that secure rail to receiver. I stripped one screw trying to get lined up. Not sure what’s going to happen with repeated disassembly and reassembly. All said and done, has that cool tactical look, single 10 round mags seem to stick, longer ones work fine with a little pull. Barrel needs flash hider to finish off the look. Stock has to be pinned per state requirement. Optics planet has a 30 day return policy , hope fully get it sighted in and see if it holds. Will update review if any problems with stock or Optics Planet arise.
Would recommend: No

It is a nice little stalk it's definitely like a full size AR it's not for kids I mean it can be for kids but it's not like specifically for them so adults can have fun with it it's pretty sweet. It was a little bit hard on insulation getting the top piece over to clip over the top of the receiver but sliding it from the front towards the back really helped me

These Archangel stocks are way better built than they were back in the day the only problem that I did have with it is it's a very tight fit but for me the easiest way I found is the top rail the slides over the barrel I slid it over the front of the receiver with the bolt pulled back until it hit the bolt handle and then I just kicked the back corner up over the bolt and then back down and then it slid all the way back trying to put it over from the top was a little too difficult

Product was easy to install just takes some elbow grease and a little oil to sip over the top. Only thing I noticed is the hand guard is slightly off center just after ther the pic rail where it mounts to the reciever. The rail on top of the receiver is straight so shouldn't effect accuracy and I am going to try and straighten it with a heat gun as the instructions advise. Also took some heat and pressure on the mag well to "flair it out" a little bit because my factory 10 rd mags wouldn't eject and couldn't pry out easy with the extended mag release in the way. All easy to fix and they fall out easy and stay in solid so if you have a brain and are careful of course. (Don't do it while it's on the gun) lol for the price I didn't expect perfection but it's solid and the minor thing I listed were expected and fixed easily so 9.5/10 for me.

This is my fourth time buying this for my sons - each has their own 10/22 and they enjoy the upgrade to look like Dad! The monolith is a much improved version of the shorter original. It was a great idea but looked kinda goofy with the barrel end attachment. And without it, the barrel was awkwardly long. The monolith makes the 10/22 look way better. It's easy to assemble and takes only about 10-20 minutes I guess, depending on your previous experience upgrading your 10/22. Personally, I've seen all my sons really enjoy shooting it with the archangel stock. One note to be aware of: be ready to apply a little sandpaper to the telescoping stock. Of the four I've had, at least two of them needed a bit of light sanding since they were binding in the shortest position. Otherwise, it's a great stock.
Pros:
- easy to assemble
- Fun to shoot
Cons:
- light sanding needed on buffer tube area
Would recommend: Yes

You'll see comments here and there calling these things junky but I can't see that at all. The polymer is solid, nicely formed, and quite hefty when all put together. The shoulder stock in particular feels high quality. It's solid and has a nice rubber-sleeve butt pad.
I will say it was a it of a pain to put on and will be even more so to take apart when the time comes for a thorough cleaning. You must be sure to remove your front and rear sight completely. After that, head up the chamber area with a hair dryer for about 30 seconds. Nice and warm to the touch. The receiver should pop right in once the plastic is pliable enough. After that it's just a matter of putting all the screws in. It's really only a tough process for the first timer.
I certainly wouldn't say it's the best stock for the 10/22, but it is a really cool and fun upgrade for AR fans. It adds a decent bit of weight and thickness to the light and slim Ruger classic rifle, so be sure it's what you want before making the purchase. I had a 10/22 gathering dust in a locker with an old wooden stock that I didn't like at all, so for the price this turned it into a snazzy little tacticool rifle.
Pros:
- Cool looking with accessory rails and QD mounts
Cons:
- Heavy, bulky, and kinda pricey for what you get
Would recommend: Yes

I have a few Ruger 10/22 rifles for my boys and bought the original shirt stock version a long time ago. The extended grip is way better. The telescoping stock helps when teaching my boys to shoot and they get the fun of an AR style rifle stock. The Ruger BX-15 or 25 mags work perfectly with it. Easy to install. Easy to paint a different color like camouflage green or desert.
Pros:
- Easy to install
- Inexpencive
- Easy to take down
- Easy to paint
- Fits bull barrels
Best Used for:
- Plinking and fun for all ages
Would recommend: Yes

What's up with the 2 or 3 stars? Really? It's not designed for an AR-15 merely because it LOOKS like an AR-15. Personally, I love it. I bought the original model with short fore grip a long time ago. Downside is the barrel looks odd because it's much longer than the short fore grip. The extended fore grip is WAY better. I bought a couple more and installed them on my sons' 10/22s also. The pistol grip is comfortable for my hands, but I prefer this style of grip anyway. Some people may not like the finger grooves. The old model did not have QD attachment points. The new one does. The original did not fit bull barrels, but this one does with the included adapter. The fore grip installation is a bit tight, but did not inhibit function. It's just a better model. Period.
Pros:
- Built well
- easy to install
- disassembly is easy
Best Used for:
- Plinking & target shooting
Would recommend: Yes
