A buddy an AR up in all Pink with the "Hello Kitty" logo on the butt stock. We got a few snickers when we took it out of the case. They stopped when they saw the target.

Buy another new 10/22 & use that or better yet; Find a cheap used 10/22 stock to paint. Lots of them are available on Ebay & such from all the Tacticool gangs looking to Optimize, Simonize & Pimp out there guns with wild & crazy stocks.

BTW, that is a nice looking laminate stock. Did it come with the Ruger or is it aftermarket?
