FN P90 - Ruger 10/22 Mod - At the Range- Part 1

[sadeyedangel]

Very cool actually. How'd you get the trigger linkage hooked up? Was it hard to make? Lol.

[C00Ltuber]

is the safety on the p90 body functional? if not, is there any way to access the safety on the ruger?

[MrDereBear]

How accurate is it with your sight you have on it? It seems like you had to problem hitting your targets but they were kinda big. (Not hating, just wondering :) are the rails on top of the airsoft sturdy enough to mount anything on and have it keep zero?

[GDMFSOB13]

@3131bubba1313

No you dumb ass it's illegal

[pokefreak001]

herp a derpity herp de derp.

[braseldazzle]

can a ruger 10 22 reciever and a barrel and a magazine work for this mod so i dont have to buy a ruger with a stock for more expensive please reply

[taofledermaus]

@braseldazzle Yes, basically you remove the stock from the Ruger and put it inside this stock. I'm not sure if they sell the 10/22 without a stock though.

[sharpbrickman]

is it airsoft? u said tokyo marui

[3131Bubba1313]

can I get this in canada?

[sweettooth80]

how much nd where?

[hobojoe357]

does it seem at all like the sights might be too high? Or does it somehow compensate for that?

[charbrit08]

I was wondering how the stock felt, does it feel really cheap and fake or does it feel decent? Also in your other videos where it shows a fake "can" suppressor on it, how did you fit that on there?

[taofledermaus]

@charbrit08 It just feels like plastic. The well airsoft P90 is not a high quality airsoft gun by any means. BUT it is to scale, and the idea of this project is to give the user the feel and ergonomics of what a P90 has. I built the suppressor on a lathe and it was somewhat complex. I used several steel collars to clamp it over the barrel. It was never intended to be used on the gun though we did some testing with it on.

[BALJIT147]

very different from any other p90 i have ever seen, you should get it to fire 5.57

[charbrit08]

Do you think a 10/22 magnum would work inside that body?

[taofledermaus]

@charbrit08 I don't have any experience with the 10/22 magnum. If you can size up your rifle to a standard 10/22, and they share the same dimensions, then yes it would work.

[comunisttanpon]

You should get into gunsmithing

[rockonmyfriend]

looks alot like the civillian ps90

[rockonmyfriend]

you really have to get a ffl lisence so you can convert it to full auto and cut down the barrel and thread it for a flash supressor. then you can use a real silencer!

[nofx1091]

The top mag is a dummy mag right? How do you release the mag from the bottom?

[Reapertango]

This mod is not illegal. The barel of the rifle is not shortened in any way. Take a ook at FN's own PS80. same basic idea. This seams like a lot of work for the look. A PS80 can be purchased reasonable. Course Ammo is horrably expensive. In a world of people looking for cheap trigger time this is awsome. Cheaper than buying a dedicated upper for a AR and cooler than the same ol' Butler creek folder for the 10/22. Kudos!! How much to smith a Well body for me? ;)

[taofledermaus]

@Reapertango It really isn't illegal. The length is 26.5" and the barrel is unmodified. It's is a cheap plinker and just offers a different look and feel for people who want to do something a little exotic with their 10/22. I really don't have much spare time to modify these for people, I've been asked so many times I've lost count. Wish I could make the time.

[cyberslick18]

@Reapertango There is no such thing as a FN PS80.

[MrBailiffMan]

@cyberslick18 its actually a PS90, he probably just typoed the 80. go to fnhusa dot com and look it up under simi auto carbines

[cyberslick18]

@MrBailiffMan I own one :D

[MG030670]

your fucking stupid man, i bet that the feds will be comming to visit you soon for building a short barreled rifle with out your tax stamp. you are extra retarded for posting it on youtube.

good job fucktard.

[taofledermaus]

@MG030670 If I were you I wouldn't worry about what people post on the internet. You seem a bit stressed out.

[keesurt]

@MG030670 you are a retard man

[MasterShake43]

@MG030670 typical dumb youtuber... the barrel wasnt modded at all!

[paulbabbitt]

Very cool mod! I like! .22 is cheap, and fun to shoot! I have an AR-15! I have an AK-47! But, in the end, that crap is too much to shoot! So maybe its time to get a 10/22!

[zironemegeaz]

only problem I have with this video it that it doesn't show its accuracy ...use a paper target and then get a close up

[mahkba]

Great work, question - Did you achieve feeding from the top magazine? If so, how was this accomplished?

[Roflzmahwoflz]

the funny thing is that its an airsoft gun body, but a ruger 10/22 barrell, bolt, and other stuff.

[Espere312]

It Looks like A P90 but doesn't sound like one^^

[mustangfootball63]

@Espere312 What do you even know about guns COD doesn't coun't It's .22 FYI

[Espere312]

@mustangfootball63 Because it's not a P90...

CoD sucks btw

[xxxstudmuffen]

Mabey you should re-sight it in

[mikenike4859]

y would u pepsols watch this shit it sucks fucken gayest thing ever u all suc kdick:\

[taofledermaus]

@mikenike4859 grwoal wahr pepsols thar suckie suckie gay suc kdick baaaarf....

-

Best not comment on videos when your meds run out. Thanks... brlarlrrrlla suc

[h2oman5]

@taofledermaus you all watched it!

[arraggatis11]

@mikenike4859 Learn to spell.And why would this video suck,its firing a FN P90 those are cool.

[mustangfootball63]

@mikenike4859 stop playing video games you piece of shit

[funnystuffenstufff]

@mikenike4859 wats wrong with you?

[Gunmetalgray1]

This is by far one of the most stupid mods I've ever seen for a 10/22. But I guess for those who can't afford/legally own a PS90 it works...?

[taofledermaus]

@Gunmetalgray1 lol

[swis19]

@Gunmetalgray1 I can tell that you were the rich kid in school.

[cryGenMeCcS]

damn there is a house nearby... in the shooting direktion...

[taofledermaus]

@crazyoverwii It means  Federal Prison. lol

[taofledermaus]

@crazyoverwii Not at all. There's very little recoil.

[pcramil]

looks like your barrel is ever so slightly canted upwards in the new stock

[Startzmanvids88]

Im gonna have to copy ur gun dude too cool! Lol great vid as well

[fallenremedy]

despite the small round that must be fun as hell just shooting it whenever you want. .22's dont even cost that much as well

[EDog1o1]

i wanna see some 1 covert a p90 into a .357 mag

[shomomaru]

@EDog1o1 I think you mean 'convert'? fix your N key. .357 mag is a rimfire caliber, perhaps .357 sig.

[tcsportline1]

sicckkkk i whantto trie it dud

[TheAirsoftersChoice]

Covert it to full auto! CMON!!!!!!!

[taofledermaus]

@TheAirsoftersChoice As much as I would love to do it, I love not being in "Club Fed" either!

[TheAirsoftersChoice]

@taofledermaus Lmao ok.

[The1Grapefruit]

Funny weekend project!

@taofledermaus das ist echt gute arbeit!!!

is besser als die öde normale rouger!!!!!!

[taofledermaus]

@The1Grapefruit Thanks bro!

[bazengao]

the reason why ppl buy the original p90 is for its hi fire rate and armor piercing rounds, this replica of the p90 noy only is semi-auto as also fires the .22 round... conclusion a very nice piece of crap!

[taofledermaus]

@bazengao lol, thanks for the kind words

[bazengao]

@taofledermaus your welcome!!

[blingblingjon34]

you can get a ruger 10/22 in fully auto right cause i was going to get one

[ShepperdW]

Now just file down the inside some, and you will have a full auto...

[91rxl650]

Yes I know you're shooting into a safe and solid backstop, but still....there's a house right behind it. I'm not trying to get you in trouble for this but I'm just saying...please be more careful which way you shoot. I know you're not going to intentionally shoot at the house, but accidents happen. Cool conversion though. Looks pretty nice.

[74Hobbes]

@91rxI650 That actually looks like a barn of some type and not a house. If it was a house, it looked pretty abandoned to me.

[taofledermaus]

@74Hobbes Yeah, it's a metal shed for farm equipment.

[taofledermaus]

@91rxl650 The location is not as bad as it appears. The house is a actually a farm shed. Still, I understand your point. We've moved the backstop 90 degrees and made it about 4 feet taller. Hopefully this weekend we'll finally get back out there to film new footage.

[91rxl650]

@taofledermaus Glad to know that you're trying to be safe. I just don't want anybody to get hurt. I love to go shoot and it looks like you do too. Sorry to be preachy. Have fun shooting that awesome rifle!!

[taofledermaus]

@91rxl650 I notice a lot of lack of gun safety in videos. Heck, I was watching Lock N Load on History channel the other night and R Lee Ermy and a few others weren't using eye protection. lol The only time I ever scratch my head is when people mock people shooting .22's who wear hearing protection.

[jayjaykewl727]

lol plastic body gun from a aeg firing live roundss

[taofledermaus]

The adobe stocks didn't work out as well.

[Timmy91000]

u made this gun??? i thought the mag was at the top??

[dpr123456]

it's a Ruger 10/22 on a p90 stock

[gizmo2477]

u try making a ruger's mag on top of it

[RYDERkN]

the loading port, or what ever it is called is on the bottom so unless he had a tube sort of thing bringing the rounds down and up into it...

[KraftsHerz]

PS90

[BornToAssassinate]

FINALLY A TRUE STATEMENT!

[DocRoe92]

Looks a wee bit like a chinese type 97 with the curved mag in the bullpup config :P but very nice as a p90 rep.

[XEVILRUSSIANX1]

its gay that the round comes out the side in a real fn p90 it comes out the borrom

[superZalm]

yeah real men eject from the bottom, not from the side

[BigSwede7403]

The problem being that the P90 was designed to eject the casings downward and the 10/22 was designed to eject to the side. If you want to make a 10/22 eject downwards you would have to rebuild the weapon completly. (If at all possible.)

And that would kind of defeat the purpose with having an easy to make P90 lookalike would it not?

[taofledermaus]

Good comment. To make a Ruger 10/22 load from the top and eject from the bottom... it wouldn't be a 10/22 anymore. Yep the whole idea here is simplicity, and low costs. Most of all it's about having fun.

[whydid666]

FN P90 ya i'll admit i herd about this weapon only though a TV series i liked called Stargate they used that rifle a lot though i wondering if there was a comparison between this rifle and the new Tavor from Isreal.

[Breakneckhydra1]

@whydid666 what is there to compare? The FN P90 is a PDW (Personal defense weapon) that uses a specially made round by FN that can penetrate Kevlar, and the Tavor is a cutting edge highly advanced battle rifle for todays infantry man.

[kevinbarnett]

@whydid666 the tavor is a rifle, the p90 is a sub machinegun

[elijah56565656]

@kevinbarnett not really. thae p90 fires a 5.7mm, and the last time i checked, submachine guns fire pistol rounds. just like the heckler and koch MP7, it is a pdw made to penetrate targets with body armor

[kevinbarnett]

well now im confused, i've been told by a lot of people, that its a sub machine gun, its designed for CQB, its not a rifle is it?

[taofledermaus]

The round the P90 uses is a pistol round, and is also used in FNH's "Five-Seven" pistol. FNH defines the P90 as a "PDW" while many put it in the submachine gun catagory.

[kevinbarnett]

what does PDW stand for?

[taofledermaus]

Personal Defense Weapon. sorry about that!

[bl00dsh0teyes]

personal defense weapon?

[dahammer09]

or a good home defense weapon? mount a light and possibly an airsoft reddot scope on it. could be a good choice

[kalashnicough]

sweet....

[starshock01]

haha for all the people that think its an airsoft gun why dont you play target?

[panterajoey]

ok sounds good as long as the first guy is shooting

[jakeypoo91]

you rite killibreaux. this vidio is usefull and should not be ridiculed

[sfauver36]

Nice mod and ear plugs, but where's ur safety glass's? I had a Remington 22 bullet jam and explode in my 10/22. blew the casing right open and sprayed burning gun powder back at me!

[taofledermaus]

I really prefer getting comments like yours promoting good shooting safety than the comments ridiculing us for wearing earplugs when shooting a .22! You are absolutely correct and there is no excuse for not wearing eye protection. ( I had my glasses on but a few of the other guys didn't) I did not even realize this until you brought it up. I'll definitely pay closer attention in future videos since I don't want to promote unsafe shooting! Thank you!

[sfauver36]

No prob. we're not ALL assholes on here! lol!

[MrBallistics]

@sfauver36 DUDE ive had the same thing happen to me!!! was it a subsonic? ITs the scariest thing that has ever happened with firearms for me, and it was a GD .22!

[kilibreaux]

Taofledermaus,

Be sure there are MANY out here following your lead on this conversion. I'm working on a version now with a few twists and I will post a video of it when I am done. Basically it will use an aluminum channel heat sink from receiver forward. The portion of the airsoft stock meant to be metal is removed and the channel replaces it. The barrel will be mounted to this channel and a new sight support fabricated.

[taofledermaus]

Definitely post a video of it when you complete it. There have been a few others who posted their videos and they often have their own upgrades and changes from my design. (always a better way of doing everything!)

[shinylatios2007]

see what s $30 Crapy Airsoft P90 can become?

[taofledermaus]

lol!  The Well P90 is one of the worse airsofts out there.

[BurtSaun]

This video reminds me of how much the bullpup design freaking sucks

[taofledermaus]

ok....

[kilibreaux]

Clearly you haven't handled one and are a typical no-nothing troll shit-sucker who wants to feel "cool" by pretending you are knowledgeable when in fact you're just a little bitch. Taofledermaus has lead the way in showing the rest of us what can be done with the P90 airsoft stock...he is a "doer", and YOU are nothing more than the product of your momma's pimp's "leavins"..the part that DIDN'T run out her cooch and down the crack of her ass--unfortunately.

[BurtSaun]

At this point, I'm just trying to decide which is funnier, Kilibreaux: 1) All of your spelling fails (i.e. "no-nothing") 2) The fact that you double posted just to attack my user name, or 3) the fact you think this is an airsoft gun. The only conclusion I can make is that you're around the age of a 5th grader. Go back to playing with airsoft and leave us big boys to play with real guns.

[sfauver36]

All of the above! LMAO!

[1cme1]

Elaborate or theres really no point in making a statement.

[gunz010]

I love 10 22s and airsoft! Best of both worlds sweet!

[Guyya93]

AMAZING BUILD!!! umm do you remember what brand the airsoft was? because im thinking of doing this?

[taofledermaus]

Thank you! It's a Well P90. I have more videos on this gun and an instructional video on how I built mine. All free information. Give it a try!

[Guyya93]

i soooo have to try that!!!!!!!!!!!!

[chrismc45]

Great production values and sound, but a stellar build. My one question, how does the trigger feel? Do you get any creep or "grittyness"? I am not sure what kind of linkage you have, but even my first stock 10/22 benefited from a Hornet upgrade to the trigger, and a radiused bolt made the action ~1/2 effort. Please let me (us) know about the trigger an linkage for you nice bullpup.

[taofledermaus]

Thanks for the nice comment. A while back I installed a "lightened trigger kit" I bought off Ebay which is supposed to have lighter springs in it. I use a 1/8" rod to link the P90's trigger with the Ruger's trigger. I'd best describe the movement as slightly mushy more than anything. I do have a video detailing the build and another video detailing the linkage itself. I would say your upgrades would benefit this mod.

[JuicedJetta]

im not sure if i like bullpups

[paulith101]

One Suggestion, if you have the money, buy an eotech sight for it. awesome gun, though. I am thinking about putting one together.

[DICESLIPKNOT]

22;s arent loud enough

[taofledermaus]

A 22 still produces 150 db @ the shooter's ears. The muzzle on this P90 is nearly a foot closer to the shooter's ears than a standard stock, and it's even closer than the muzzle of a pistol. It's more comfortable to shoot any firearm with hearing protection, less flinching, better aim, etc.

[Bloodyfisted]

No offense....But earplugs?

[taofledermaus]

We put earplugs in when we arrive, and take them out when we are done. It's too inconvenient to put them in and take them out- the earplugs get lost, or get lead residue all over them from loading 100's of rds of 22's. Don't need that in your ears. Realize that we were also shooting a 20ga shotgun, an 8mm Mauser, 9mm pistols, a .357, and an MAK90 that day. I would have figured we would have been scrutinized for not wearing eye protection, actually.

[twreck45]

haha your name has fisted in it

[Tr33M4st3r]

"I think he is missing"

Haha, well played.

[cjshull]

very interested in this, however since the receiver is kinda of hap hazardly fit into the housing (cut empty, then gluing plastic together, etc.. I'm a little bit apprehensive about how well it could hold a zero. Really, what needs to be done is an entire drop in mold needs to be made that you can glue it, something that can insure the entire length of the receiver assembly is rigid.

[taofledermaus]

How one fits their own Ruger into a stock like this is up to the person doing it. There's plenty of room for improvement and if you felt there was some inaccuracy due to slop, just secure it more. When we get around to more field testing, I do want to show if this setup is accurate or not. I've felt exactly the same way as you do and have the same questions. Thanks for the post.

[cjshull]

Well, If this is to scale, one would imagine any replica P90 should in fact be capable of receiving a 10/22 receiver/barrel. How is the build quality of this airsoft? It seems to be on the cheaper end of what most of the airsofts go for. Is there higher quality P90 airsofts out there? What kind of rail system does this airsoft have, is it steel? I question this because I'd had to get it working and then find out it's going to break and crack.

[taofledermaus]

I have seen someone do this with a Tokyo Mauri P90. That stock is different though and doesn't just split open like this. It's is more complicated and much more expensive. The Tokyo Marui airsoft is around $250-300, and to me that makes the whole idea of the project prohibitive Anyone who has owned a Well P90 knows it's pretty dang cheap. It is all plastic. I built mine over 2 years ago, and it has held up fine. (cont below)

[taofledermaus]

I'm willing to bet if I dropped the gun the stock would crack. I've never dropped a firearm though- gun safety and caution usually prevents guns from being dropped. I'm not selling these P90s so I have no reason to BS anyone. Consider this a fun-gun with potential flaws. If you wish to do serious target shooting, it only takes a few minutes to remove the Ruger from this stock and placed back into your old stock.

[theVirus7]

ahh i see now..its not top fed? dammit thats too bad, you have to use the magazine from the bottom. i was wondering how that system would work if it was being top fed. still cool tho.

[taofledermaus]

It would be VERY complicated to feed it from the top, you'd have to build a new receiver from scratch, plus you are limited on space, etc. Gives me headaches to think about it!

[theVirus7]

yah i agree, i just thought that maybe there was a system in place that they could now top feed. Either way i love the gun, and its awesome that its a .22

[blackquiver]

lol great sound effects

[taofledermaus]

I didn't add any sound effects. The only thing I added was a little music.

[tomterahedrob]

best grouping?Can you take the 22out for cleaning?

[taofledermaus]

The accuracy test hasn't been done yet... long overdue. I planned on doing it a couple weeks after filming this video-

For quick cleaning, the action can be left in the stock. If you want to pull out the bolt and trigger group, it takes about 2 minutes tops to open the stock to remove the action.

[dirtbike1911]

it would be so cool if it was a full auto 10/22

[conarym9]

is it comfortable to shoot

[taofledermaus]

It is comfortable. It has a different feel than holding a rifle and because it is so short I thought it might make it harder to aim. With more time using it, I'm sure I will get better at shooting it.

[gunsrfunk]

if you were to sell one how much would you sell it for

[az456yg]

Wow, im impressed man.

you beat me to this one,

i can do alot with guns.

but i wouldnt have thought to mod a .22 into a P90.

props dude.

[taofledermaus]

Thank you! It's hard to believe it actually fit into the tiny stock, and everything lined out for it to work.

[firestar9999]

is the base plasic? name the plastic parts

[Zeth0711]

is this a real gun

why am i seeing shells fly out

[xXVietDynastyXx]

Yes it is....

[ahb123456789]

what do you think?

[weeeds334]

yes .22 cal

[Zlyzer]

Because it's a real gun? :P

[taofledermaus]

haha!

[marshallspikebanana]

NO airsoft here buddy!!!!

[stealthchaser13]

yeah, the shell WAS at one time an airsoft gun...lol

[maradrew]

wow!!! very nice... 5 star!

[GammaAKF]

Just wow, frakkin' sweet man. I have to say that i love the p90 series and that looks almost exactly like the civilian ps90 rifle, which does have a protruding barrel. my brother has that 10/22, but i doubt he would allow it to be modded into a p90 like that. . . how unfortunate. . .

[imthbst]

that is amazing, honestly i have to hand it to you i am impressed how you came up with this

5 stars :)

[taofledermaus]

Thanks for the kind words! I guess it was part luck, part chance, and a little bit of persistance on my part, that the Ruger ended up fitting in that tiny stock.

[mikafor]

i think i might do this mod with my 10/22

[jackingoffkills]

could see it maybe melting if you fired alot of rounds through it, BUT im sure a solution could be found to fix it maybe even as simple as a battery or 2 and a internal CPU fan and vent?? dunno. but "if it aint broke dont fix it!" cool project

[taofledermaus]

I really thought there would be a heat issue too. I thought I would have to take it easy on how many rds. I fired, and all that. I would fired of a bunch of rounds, grab the barrel it is was never hotter than "luke warm".

[jackingoffkills]

wicked, thinking about getting a few 10/22's to mod next gun show that comes my way. missed a chance at buying 1 a year ago on sale at dicks sporting goods i think for $59.99.. was an early bird special. would be cool to mod it like you did and possibly add a crank firing device ive seen around for cheap

[BRADBURY808]

Sweet

[gimmethatglock]

Dude that is so freakin awesome

[thedothedew]

For the most part, the accuracy looks pretty good considering what it is.

I see you still havnt gotten that random ejecting cartridge problem down ;l

[taofledermaus]

They guys who were shooting it said it was accurate, but all this was close range stuff.  We were running out of daylight so there wasn't much order, trying to get anything filmed. hehe, yeah, it ejects where ever it wants to.

[derderpaintballguy]

hey nice video....i have a whinchester model 190 .22 semi-aoutomatic. And i have to say its extremely accurate for a semi aoutomatic. hope to see more videos soon...same for me..

[e1406466]

it'd be nice to have seen an example of a paper target you'd shot up. Accuracy and all.

[taofledermaus]

This shoot was really short notice and everyone was just familiarizing themselves with the gun. (goofing around mostly) We'll definitely do some more serious accuracy tests. At this point it's the shooters that are inaccurate.

[teeznutz0]

any how good video nice to see the new footage, but i would also enjoy seeing some grouping on targets when u get a chance, thanks sweet rep

[3rd6thdeathward]

yeah i agree nice vid.

i wish i could fire it heh heh.

and seeing the grouping of the shots would be really cool

i wonder if the ejection port would be in the way for a left handed shooter. or is there a way to switch the ejection port

[taofledermaus]

We are all ready planning an accuracy test in a couple of weeks. Hopefully we'll get out there a little earlier so we can plan it better. There's no easy way to change the ejection port. If I remember, I'll video it being fired left-handed. I think the shells might hit the right arm or shoulder. We'll see!

[3rd6thdeathward]

that would be sweet i cant wait ! :D

well dont try it if the shells are gonna poke your eye out lol.

[taofledermaus]

Wouldn't that be good-video though? I'll do it in slow motion so we can see the gruesome details! muuhaha

[3rd6thdeathward]

haha! that would be pretty friggin funny! oh man slow motion makes everything epic.. i think that maybe an awesome idea

[TheHiddenPart]

first comment -

GREAT!!!
