Ruger | 10/22 Carbine | .22 LR | 250th Anniversary Edition | Hardwood Stock The Ruger 10/22 Carbine is one of America's most recognizable and successful semi-automatic rimfire rifles. Introduced in 1964 by Sturm, Ruger & Co., the 10/22 earned a longstanding reputation for reliability, accuracy, and versatility, becoming a favorite among recreational shooters, small-game hunters, and firearms enthusiasts. This example is the Ruger 10/22 Carbine 250th Anniversary Edition, produced to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the United States in 2026. The rifle features a special "Made in the 250th Year of American Liberty" engraving, distinguishing it from standard-production 10/22 Carbines and adding commemorative appeal. The rifle features a traditional hardwood stock paired with a satin black blued finish, maintaining the classic appearance that has defined the Ruger 10/22 for decades. Its 18.5" barrel provides a practical balance of handling and accuracy, while the overall length of approximately 37" makes it a compact and versatile sporting rifle. The 10/22 utilizes Ruger's proven semi-automatic blowback action and distinctive 10-round rotary magazine, a design that allows the magazine to fit flush with the underside of the stock. This magazine system has been a defining feature of the platform since its introduction. The rifle is equipped with a gold bead front sight and adjustable rear sight, providing a traditional open-sight arrangement. The receiver is also drilled and tapped for optics mounting, and the rifle includes a combination scope base adapter for additional sighting options. Additional features include a two-position crossbolt safety, an 18.5" barrel with a 1:16" twist rate, and an unloaded weight of approximately 5 pounds. The combination of the 10/22's established reputation, traditional hardwood furniture, and special 250th Anniversary commemorative engraving makes this an appealing example of a classic American rimfire rifle.
