SU22CABLK) is a lightweight semi-automatic .22LR carbine built around KelTec’s proven gas-operated action, giving shooters an affordable, low-recoil platform for plinking, training, or small-game hunting. At just 4 pounds unloaded, the SU-22CA is easy to carry and easy to shoot for hours without fatigue, and its top-mounted Picatinny rail makes mounting an optic straightforward.
