Built around the dependable 10/22 action, the SR-22 Rifle places it in a rugged AR-style aluminum chassis. The result is a lightweight, modular rimfire platform that remains compatible with Ruger 10/22 magazines while offering familiar AR-style ergonomics.
The 16 inch alloy steel barrel uses a heavy profile and cold hammer-forged construction with a plain crown and a 1:16 RH twist suited for .22 LR. The bore is clean and well-maintained, and the rifling remains sharp.
The tubular ventilated aluminum handguard accepts bolt-on rail segments and includes a front sling swivel stud. Rails are present, and a scope mount is included on the rifle for those who prefer to add an optic. Flip-up polymer front and rear sights are installed for immediate use.
Controls are straightforward, with a right-side bolt handle, a cross-bolt safety, and blowback operation. The collapsible AR-style stock with sling loop pairs with an overmolded finger-groove pistol grip featuring a Ruger medallion and a 13.25 inch length of pull.
Finished in matte black with black anodized aluminum frame and receiver, this USA-made SR-22 was introduced in 2009. The serial prefix indicates approximate 2011 production/shipment, adding useful context for collectors and Ruger enthusiasts.
