Desert Tech Releases Trek-22 Rifle As a Complete Firearm
At SHOT Show 2022, Desert Tech introduced a unique-looking bullpup stock for the Ruger 10/22, the Trek-22. This polymer stock encases the donor rifle action, offering a relatively traditional layout in a really compact package. Now Desert Tech has opted to offer this option in a complete firearm, the Trek-22 Rifle.

Trek-22 Rifle: Introduction
From the Desert Tech website:
More Compact. Better Trigger.
Introducing the TREK-22, a modern upgrade to an industry classic from Desert Tech, the world leader in Bullpup rifles. With an overall length of just 26.5 inches, this compact rifle is perfect for small game hunters, young shooters, and anyone needing a reliable, portable firearm. It's the ultimate truck gun, designed for easy handling and transport.
The TREK-22 features a free-floated barrel, a straight blade trigger, and a reduced trigger pull weight, significantly shooting performance. These elements work together to provide a crisp, clean break, allowing for tighter groupings and improved precision. Whether you're at the range or in the field, the TREK-22 delivers consistent, reliable performance.
The TREK-22 includes integrated M-LOK slots, sling studs, and a MIL-STD-1913 picatinny rail, offering ample options for personalizing your rifle. Add optics, grips, and other accessories to build your perfect setup. Plus, the chassis retains all factory controls and is compatible with standard 10/22 rotary magazines and large-capacity magazines.
Constructed from impact-resistant Glass Reinforced Polymer, the TREK-22 offers lightweight strength and durability, making it ideal for regular use and harsh outdoor conditions.
Proudly made in the U.S.A.

Great to have this option.
But on the pricy side and horrible to clean. A regular 10/22 sucks to clean, now you have added a giant clamping shell/chassis.
Bullpups are gay. Standard rifles converted into bullpups are extremely gay. Hard pass.
It's neat, but not neat enough to be worth supporting the cartoonishly misogynistic chomo incest cult that makes it.
An interesting rifle.
