The Browning SA-22 Grade I (brand part no. 14062) is one of the first autoloading rimfire rifles ever built, and remains one of the most desirable, chambered in .22 LR and meant to be carried afield as much as handed down as an heirloom. Its slim, forged steel receiver features Grade I engraved scroll work, and the takedown design splits the rifle into two compact units without tools for easy storage and transport. The precision-rifled 19.4-inch barrel is drilled and tapped, and adjustable sights come standard for out-of-the-box use. This is a classic American design built with the fit and finish to match its reputation.
