I love everything about my 10/22 Carbine ... save for that heinous plastic butt plate, which I loathe. So flimsy & cheap & entirely beneath Ruger's usual high standard. But I digress.
If anyone knows where I might acquire a metal replacement -- pref. black, to match the receiver & barrel -- I'd be mighty obliged to know the details.

Welcome to the forum.
I don't know if anyone makes a metal replacement for the factory plastic butt piece. An adjustable aluminum metal butt piece would be both costly and a good bit of work. It would also take away from the appearance of your present stock.

The early buttplates were aluminum. I'm not sure when they switched but my 10/22 made in 1966 has one made of aluminum.
