The 10/22 Carbine format delivers a classic .22 LR semi-auto with an 18.5-inch blued steel barrel and a black-finished aluminum alloy receiver. This example retains the traditional hardwood stock, barrel band, and sling swivel studs, with the front stud integral to the band and the rear stud set in the buttstock. Length of pull measures 13.5 inches.
Its aftermarket ventilated/perforated metal barrel shroud incorporates an open rear sight, paired with a factory-style front sight at the muzzle. The round-profile barrel is non-threaded, preserving the standard carbine configuration while adding improved heat dissipation and sighting options through the shroud-mounted rear sight.
A scope base is factory-style installed on the receiver, and this rifle comes ready with a Bushnell 1.75-5x32 optic secured in Weaver rings. The 1.75–5x range complements the 10/22’s light-recoiling, small-game and target roles, offering quick acquisition at low power and useful magnification for precise work at higher settings.
Feeding is via a detachable box magazine system. Included are three 25-round magazines and one 10-round Ruger rotary magazine, with the mix noted to include a Ruger BX-25 and Butler Creek 25/22 models. Two magazines are coupled together for quicker reloads. The action is a semi-automatic blowback design with a cross-bolt safety, and the rated capacity is 25+1 when using the extended magazines.
