Traditions Firearms Expands Crackshot Rifle Line With Multiple Barrel Length and Calibers

    Traditions

    Traditions Performance Firearms announced two new Crackshot rifles. The new rifles have a 20″ barrel and are chambered in .22 LR and .17 HMR respectively. Both rifles are single shot models that weigh a little more than four pounds.

    Introduced late in 2015, the Crackshot line of rifles are all single shot, break action guns chambered for rimfire cartridges. The original guns were also chambered in .22 LR and .17 HMR. However, they were only available with a 16.5″ barrel.

    Original 16.5″ barrel models are available in a wide range of color options. Additionally, they have youth models with a shortened length of pull and packages with fixed magnification, bore sighted scopes.

    The new 20″ model rifles will only be available with a black synthetic stock and blued metal. I’m sure the company would be happy to make more color and camo patterned guns if customer demand is high enough.

    These rifles are able to be taken down for easy storage and transportation. These could make for decent survival rifles, tucked under a plane’s seat or in the cab of a truck.

    The new rifles are now shipping. Depending on the model, the suggested retail price ranges from a low of $219 to a high of $354. If your local dealer doesn’t have them, he or she should be able to order one for you.
