Rossi RS22LP1811-TH RS22 22 LR 10+1 18" Matte Black Threaded Barrel, Matte Black Picatinny Rail Aluminum Receiver, Black Polymer Stock

The Rossi RS22 in .22 LR is a no-nonsense rimfire rifle built for shooters who want accuracy and reliability without unnecessary frills. With a threaded 18" barrel, Picatinny rail, and aluminum receiver, this is a platform that rewards tinkering—whether you're threading on a suppressor, mounting an optic, or both. The 10+1 capacity keeps you in the field or at the range longer between reloads, and the polymer stock is lightweight and durable enough to handle real-world use. It's the kind of .22 that makes sense for small-game hunters, plinkers, and anyone building a versatile rimfire setup.

Rossi has engineered this rifle around customization. The matte black finish resists glare and fingerprints, the aluminum receiver keeps weight down, and that threaded barrel opens the door to suppressors and muzzle devices. The Picatinny rail is ready for scopes, red dots, or magnified optics—no gunsmith required. The polymer stock is comfortable and won't swell or warp in wet conditions, making it reliable in the field.

Whether you're introducing someone to rimfire shooting, hunting squirrel and rabbit in brush country, or want a quiet, suppressed plinker, the RS22 delivers a solid foundation. It's inherently accurate out of the box, takes common .22 LR ammunition, and the threaded barrel means you can tailor the rifle to your specific hunting or shooting discipline without a trip to a gunsmith.
