Ruger Collector’s Series 10/22 Introduced

    Just when you thought the number of 10/22 SKUs had reaches its peak, along comes another one to add to the mountain. Latest up is the 10/22 Collector’s Series Carbine Rifle – Second Edition (curious how many editions I will see in my lifetime…).

    While I am certainly content to poke fun at the marketing side of things, the rifle is actually quite the compelling option. Built in back-up irons and a built-in picatinny rail on top of Ruger’s adjustable stock system. Outside of tangible features, there is (of course) the normal bevvy of “collector” markings.

    Accompanied by unique collector memorabilia, this Second Edition of the 10/22 Collector’s Series is a great way to start a 10/22 collection, add to an existing collection, or simply enjoy the experience of shooting an all-new model of the 10/22. This collectible rifle features an exclusive Collector’s Series bolt marking and a Collector’s Series box with a Ruger decal. Also included are a Collector’s Series pin, a reprint of the “Father’s Advice” ad and a limited-edition Ruger Collector’s Series street sign. As an added bonus, this model includes a $25.00 gift certificate to be used at ShopRuger.com for Ruger sportswear and accessories.

    Those interested in a piece of the 10/22 action can pick up a Collector’s Series 10/22 Carbine Rifle Second Edition (that’s a mouthful) for $349.

    “This new Collector’s Series rifle is another chance for our customers to get their hands on a limited-edition 10/22 – we are only producing them for a short time and in limited quantities,” said Chris Killoy, Ruger President and COO. “The first Collector’s Edition was a great success and sold out quickly. We are excited to give our customers another opportunity to enjoy this special 10/22 model,” he added.
    This carbine rifle features Ruger’s Modular Stock System, with a low comb, standard length of pull module installed on an attractive composite stock. Based on the Ruger American Rimfire® rifle stock, this dark gray version of the 10/22 is both attractive and unique. The rifle also features a protected, non-glare blade front sight, ghost ring adjustable rear aperture sight, and Picatinny rail, but retains popular 10/22 features like the push-button, cross-bolt manual safety and cold hammer-forged barrel.
