Special Edition 10/22 Reminds You To Vote
In case you’ve been living under a rock and have missed the news, 2024 is a presidential election year in the United States—and to celebrate the right to vote, we now have a new special-edition rifle from Ruger. This entry into Ruger’s Seventh Edition Collector’s Series is officially known as the Vote 2024 10/22 Carbine.
Ruger rimfires @ TFB:
What you’re getting
Is anyone out there not familiar with the Ruger 10/22? That’s a rhetorical question, like suggesting you forgot about the presidential election. But for those readers who need a refresher, the 10/22 is the best-selling rimfire rifle ever, with a simple blowback action and typically set up with a 10-round removable rotary magazine, as seen here.
In this Special Edition configuration, the rifle comes with a red-white-and-blue finish, as you can see in the photos. That dipped-finish stock is one of Ruger’s modular stocks, with a low comb and standard length-of-pull insert installed. If you want to change the stock’s fit to match the shooter, you can buy other inserts from Ruger to alter its setup.
The rifle also comes with Ruger’s BX-Trigger installed, with a pull weight between 2.5 and 3 pounds. Ruger included an extended magazine release as well. The Vote 2024 10/22 Carbine comes with an 18.5-inch cold hammer-forged barrel, with a 1/2"-28 thread protector at the muzzle so you can attach a suppressor or other device if you wish. The sights are a basic fiber-optic setup, with the rear sight adjustable to dial your zero in.
Look closely, and you can see the bolt is marked to indicate this is a special-edition rifle. On top of that, Ruger throws a special metal sign into the box along with a bumper sticker, pin and a button. MSRP for the rifle is $449; see more information at Ruger’s website here.
Professional hoser with fudd-ish leanings.
