Ruger’s New 10/22 M1 Carbine

by: Richard Johnson 3 Comments

Ruger 10-22 M1 Carbine

Sturm, Ruger & Co. teamed up with TALO Distributors to introduce an M1 Carbine reproduction based on the company’s 10/22 rifle design. The new guns are not a true reproduction, but have the classic look of the old guns combined with the company’s incredibly popular rimfire action.

The new rifles, called the 10/22 M1 Carbine, will be semi-automatic and use the company’s standard magazines. Aftermarket 10/22 magazines should also work in this gun. The standard rifle ships with a single 15-round magazine, but will also take the flush-fitting 10 round mags for an appearance more in keeping with the M1 Carbine lines.

A second model that ships with a single 10-round magazine will also be available. This should open the gun up to those shooters living in states that have restricted their rights.

A wood stock modeled on the original M1 Carbine is standard as is the originally-styled iron sights. The company includes a Picatinny-style rail on the receiver for adding a decidedly more modern optic such as the recently released Trijicon MRO.

The suggested retail price on the new guns is $415. This compares favorably to the Citadel M1 .22 Carbine that has a suggested retail of $400 for a wood stock and blued barrel. The Citadel does have a more authentic appearance, but the Ruger has the advantage of an incredibly reliable action. I would expect that prices at your local gun shop to be nearly identical.

Chiappa also offers a .22 LR version of the M1 Carbine. With a wood stock, that gun is less than the others with a MSRP of $319. However, the company’s use of RFID chips that monitor the weapon and the company’s rather insulting response to reasonable concerns has soured many on the brand. It is too bad, as I have found some of the company’s guns to be quite nice.

    So basically an extra $200 over a standard 10/22 for a sling slit in the butt stock.
