The Chiappa Little Badger .22 LR (brand part no. 500.266) is a break-action survival and packable rifle designed to go anywhere without weighing down a pack. Chiappa Firearms built the Little Badger around a simple, rugged break-open action with a folding stock that collapses the whole rifle down to a compact package that stows in the included pack/case. The 16.5-inch barrel and adjustable sights give it real accuracy for a gun this light and small. Among single shot rifles, the Little Badger favors backpackers, campers, and truck-gun owners who want a dependable .22 that folds away until it’s needed.
