Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR) is proud to announce the release of a new lightweight 10/22® rifle. Chambered in .22 LR and manufactured in Ruger’s Newport, New Hampshire facility, this rifle is feature rich with a custom look and feel.
This new rifle has earned the distinction of being the lightest 10/22 in the Ruger line. Weighing in at a mere 3.5 lbs., this rifle sports a 16.1″ cold hammer-forged tensioned barrel with a carbon fiber sleeve. In addition to the reduction in weight, the stainless steel tensioned barrel is more rigid, reducing vibration, and is threaded 1/2″-28 for the addition of muzzle devices.
The tough but lightweight Magpul MOE X-22 stock is painted black and features a textured splatter paint for an improved grip in even the worst weather conditions, while complimenting the aesthetics of the rifle. The stock features M-LOK attachment slots at the 6 o’clock position and integral sling loops for use with locking sling swivels. The length of pull is 13.5″.
Adding to the custom feel of this new model, this 10/22 sports a genuine Ruger BX-Trigger® that has an approximate pull weight of 2.75 lbs. and a crisp, clean break.
Ruger’s Custom Shop is also introducing two new 10/22 rifles fitted into a chassis manufactured by Grey Birch and featuring a tensioned barrel with a carbon fiber sleeve and BX-Trigger. They have identical features with one for right-handed shooters and one for left-handed shooters. The high-end Grey Birch chassis is adjustable for length of pull and comb height and folds for easy transport. The 10″ forend features M-LOK slots and has an Arca-Swiss rail under the forend.
