Mauser M-15 .22LR Semi-Auto Rifle - Black (Model 4150014)

The Mauser M-15 .22LR semi-auto rifle is a nimble, feature-rich small-caliber option built for shooters who want precision and versatility without the recoil. At just 6.71 pounds with a 16.3-inch barrel, this rifle handles like a dream for target work, casual plinking, and training—especially if you're introducing new shooters to rifle fundamentals or sharpening your own marksmanship on a tight budget. The black synthetic furniture gives it a modern tactical aesthetic while keeping things practical and durable in the field or at the range.

What sets the M-15 apart is its thoughtful controls. The ambidextrous manual safety, ambidextrous magazine release, and ambidextrous charging handle mean lefties and righties shoot the same gun equally well—no fumbling, no compromise. The adjustable cheek rest lets you dial in your sight picture without buying a new stock, and the retractable folding stock compresses the overall length for storage, transport, or compact shooting positions. A 10-round magazine ships standard, with 23-round capacity available—plenty for range sessions or small-game outings.

The adjustable flip-up sight gives you a backup aiming solution that's quick and reliable, whether you're running optics or shooting iron-sighted. With an overall length of 38.80 inches and that short barrel, the M-15 is handy for vehicle storage, truck racks, or tight shooting lanes. It's the kind of rifle that rewards you the more you shoot it—smooth, balanced, and genuinely fun to run.
