The Model 82G was produced for U.S. training use and is marked "U.S.," adding clear government-contract provenance. This configuration is single-shot (1-round), reinforcing its role as a precision smallbore trainer.
The approximately 25-inch heavy target barrel is paired with a recessed target crown to support consistent accuracy. The polished bolt body with a round knob provides smooth cycling and a traditional target-rifle feel.
The walnut stock is set up for positional shooting with a straight comb, broad forend, and a UIT/Anschutz accessory rail. A sliding handstop is installed, and the spacer-adjustable buttpad allows straightforward length-of-pull tuning; this rifle is currently set to a 13.5-inch LOP.
For sighting equipment, the rifle includes a target/globe-style front sight base and two short receiver scope/sight blocks. This setup supports target sights or optics bases compatible with the installed blocks.
Made in Clackamas, Oregon by Kimber of Oregon, this 82G combines U.S.-property markings with a purpose-built target configuration, making it a strong choice for collectors of government-marked rimfire trainers and for shooters who value a dedicated single-shot .22 LR platform.
