The Ruger 10/22 has been in production for over 50 years and is the most popular rimfire rifle in America. There are numerous configurations available from Ruger. Late last year, Ruger started offering a factory mounted Viridian EON 3-9×40 scope on their 10/22 Carbine with a black synthetic stock. It comes standard with a Ruger branded hard case, a single 10-round flush fit rotary magazine, standard scope rail for Weaver and .22 tip-off style scope mounts, factory mounted Viridian EON 3-9×40, owner’s manual, and a receiver lock.

Together, the scope and rifle weigh in at 5.4 lbs. and has an overall length of 37”.  Ruger uses 18.5” cold hammer forged steel barrels with a 1:16 RH twist finished in satin black. A flip up traditional v-notch rear-sight with diamond dot makes getting on target fast and easy. It is paired with a dovetailed front sight housing a brass bead and serrations to reduce glare. The barrel is slip fit into the receiver with an aluminum V-shaped block and secured with 2 screws creating a precise fit while remaining easy to disassemble. The black satin aluminum receiver houses the reciprocating bolt with charging handle.

The trigger housing is made from heat stabilized, glass-filled, polymer which is impact and abrasion resistant. It also features the traditional cross-bolt manual push button safety found on all Ruger 10/22 models. An enlarged magazine release provides a smooth removal of the flush fitting rotary magazine.
