The Ruger 10/22 Takedown is a semi-automatic .22 LR rifle built around a barreled action that separates from the receiver in seconds for compact storage and travel. This model (Ruger part no. 32016) pairs a 16.4-inch stainless steel barrel with a Magpul X-22 Backpacker stock, giving it a rugged, low-maintenance finish inside a purpose-built takedown chassis. A fiber optic front sight and crossbolt safety keep the controls simple and fast for plinking, small game, or a truck-gun role. For anyone who wants a full-size .22 that breaks down small enough to pack away, the 10/22 Takedown is a proven choice built on Ruger’s most popular rimfire platform.
