"Advantage" Charging Handle and Picatinny Scope Base for the Ruger® 10/22®

While the Advantage seems to have been designed for competition or speed shooters, I found it is an intuitive addition for left hand shooters, and a welcome alternative for right handed shooters. No matter the size and shape of the charging handle or the tension of the return spring (sub, normal or high), the Advantage operates the bolt as smoothly as using the right hand charging handle but does not interfere or restrict the bolt operation when shooting. Installation is no more difficult than any optics mount on a 10/22; however, one should use caution and not over tighten the mounting screws. Besides the left hand charging handle, the only other noticeable difference if the height of the rail; if this is a replacement optics mount, it may be slightly taller than the one it is replacing. Additionally, the length of the rail may be slightly shorter so minimum ring spacing for the intended optic should be checked. All in all, this is a well built, solid application that can only provide positive benefits.

One of the BEST upgrades that I have found for the 10/22. It is SOOOOO easy and FAST to clear a jam, show clear after you finish a string of fire,unbelievable!!!!!! I have one on all 5 of my Rugers. Shot a NSSF Rim fire challenge match after after putting it on my match gun and everyone who saw it LOVED it. GREAT INVESTMENT!!!!!

Before I even purchases my first 10/22, I did research on left side charging systems for them. I found the Advantage unit and ordered one along with my Takedown 10/22. This is the best, of many, upgrade I have done to my rifle. It operates perfectly and I mounted a red dot sight to the picatinny rail. I was concerned about the force exerted on the mounting screws but it turned out to be very minor. The dual rod charging system is very well balanced. I will be ordering a second unit for my next 10/22 project!

I used the QD DLOC TRS25 mount on this rail and it fits and works great holds zero even after I take it off and put it back on. I love being able to use the left side and the $9 mod bolt release piece is a must for run and gun works great. Your moto holds true "making good guns great" I will be recommending these to others.

This is a high quality, fun little part to add to the 10/22 Racking the bolt is so much more easy and natural.
