<p>Built on a solid reputation for reliability and accuracy, the Ruger&reg; 10/22&reg; Takedown Semi-Auto Rimfire Rifle is one of the most popular, and widely used rimfire rifles in the US. The 10/22 Takedown Model is well suited for having a survival gun stowed in a vehicle, boat, or plane, or at a cabin or home. It makes an easy-to-carry camp gun, perfect for backpacking and canoe trips. The Takedown splits into 2 subassemblies right in front of the receiver by simply pushing a recessed lever, twisting the subassemblies, and pulling them apart&mdash;no tools are needed! To ensure consistent accuracy, the 10/22 Takedown has an adjustment knob to eliminate play between the halves. After reassembly, the firearm returns to zero, even when receiver-mounted optics are used. Its 2-piece carbine-style synthetic stock features a curved, checkered butt that stays put on the shoulder and textured surfaces on the pistol grip and fore-end to provide a solid hold in harsh weather. The barrel is made of corrosion resistant stainless steel. The 10/22 utilizes a simple blowback semi-auto action, and a 10-shot rotary magazine, both of which are legendary for reliability. (Takedown Model uses readily available, standard 10/22 magazines.) The 10/22 Takedown features a fine, gold bead front sight dovetailed into a barrel band, and an adjustable, folding rear sight. The included scope base screws onto the drilled and tapped receiver, and is compatible with both Weaver&reg;-style and 3/8&quot; tip-off scope rings. An extended magazine release allows for rapid reloading. The Ruger 10/22 Takedown Semi-Auto Rimfire Rifle is an indispensible, go-to firearm to have on hand for emergency self-defense, hunting, or survival situations.&nbsp;</p> <ul> <li>Splits into 2 subassemblies with no tools necessary</li> <li>Utilizes a blowback semi-auto action and 10-shot rotary magazine</li> <li>Gold bead front sight dovetailed into a barrel band</li> <li>Adjustable, folding rear sight</li> <li>Included scope base screws onto the drilled and tapped receiver</li> </ul>
