Coming from a guy thats owned a kid rifle I disagree
All you really need is the barrel and trigger which is about $1000 worth
A full kid is arround $1800 probably more now and not including a stock
So including a
$400 ish for a 2nd hand ruger if you don’t already have one
It’s only costing 1400 imo you are not getting much advantage from the kidd working parts imo

Age had a ruger with kidd barrel and trigger
I had a full kidd rifle he was at no disadvantage to me
His worked just aswell and just as accurate
