The Model 164M Sporter is built on the Anschütz 64 action family, known for smooth bolt operation and consistent rimfire performance. This example is chambered in .22 WMR and feeds from a detachable 5-round steel magazine for a 5+1 capacity.

The walnut sporter stock adds practical enhancements, including a Monte Carlo cheekpiece, cut checkering, and factory sling swivel studs. It is finished with a black buttplate and a white-line spacer, and the length of pull measures 14.0 inches.
