The Ruger 10/22 Gator (brand part no. 21179) dresses America’s favorite .22 LR autoloader in a distinctive green laminate stock, giving this classic rimfire a rugged, outdoor-ready look that stands up to field use better than plain hardwood. The 18-inch barrel and reliable rotary-magazine action make it just as at home plinking at the range as it is teaching a new shooter the basics. A gold bead front sight and folding rear sight come standard, so it’s ready to shoot straight out of the case. This is the same dependable 10/22 action that’s made the platform a rimfire staple for decades.
