Step into a piece of American firearms history with this special 50th Anniversary edition of the Sturm Ruger 10/22 semi-auto rifle. A well-reputed brand, Sturm Ruger first introduced this model in 1964, and it has since become a favorite amongst small game hunters and sport shooters for its robustness, high-quality build, and easy handling. Celebrating half a century of the 10/22's success and legacy, this 50th Anniversary submodel, released in 2014, is a commemorative gem for any firearm enthusiast.
The rifle is in very good overall condition, showing only light, superficial signs of prior handling or use. It is in perfect working order for you to experience its excellence firsthand. The bore condition is excellent, promising superior performance. Included in the sale are the original paperwork, a Ruger 10/22 original ad reprint sealed in an envelope, a 25rd mag, a 10rd mag, and the original case, adding to its collector's value.
With a black finish and blowback action, this .22 LR caliber rifle showcases a special engraving that marks the model's 50th anniversary. The laser etching on the bolt and stamped details on the receiver sides are a testament to the model's longevity and popularity. It has a substantial capacity of 25 +1, reflecting its versatile usage for both shooting sport and hunting. The synthetic stock features checkering around the grip and forend, with a LaserMax laser built into the front end of the stock along with two side mount picatinny rails.
However, please note that the plastic butt plate shows some damage, receding into the stock. This does not affect the rifle's performance or handling and is a minor flaw in an otherwise outstanding piece of firearm history.
With its historical value, performance, and collectability, this Sturm Ruger 10/22 50th Anniversary model will be an asset to any collection. Experience the legacy of a cult favorite and make it yours today.
