The Ruger® 10/22 Carbon Fiber Model 31231 takes America's favorite rimfire rifle to the next level with cutting-edge materials and premium factory upgrades. Weighing just 3.5 pounds, this is one of the lightest factory 10/22 rifles Ruger has ever produced, making it an exceptional choice for small game hunting, backpacking, steel challenge competition, and all-day range sessions. (Ruger)
At the heart of the rifle is a 16.1-inch cold hammer-forged stainless steel tensioned barrel wrapped in a lightweight carbon fiber sleeve. This innovative design delivers the rigidity of a heavy target barrel while significantly reducing weight, helping improve accuracy without sacrificing portability. The threaded ½"-28 muzzle comes with a thread protector and is ready for compatible muzzle devices or suppressors where legally permitted. (Ruger)
The rifle is housed in a Magpul® MOE® X-22 stock featuring a textured black splatter finish for enhanced grip in adverse weather. M-LOK® slots allow easy attachment of accessories, while integral sling loops make it simple to carry in the field. Ruger also equips the rifle with its acclaimed BX-Trigger®, offering a crisp, clean break with an approximate 2.75-pound trigger pull for improved precision. (Ruger)
Built around Ruger's legendary 10/22 action, the Model 31231 continues the platform's reputation for reliability, accuracy, and unmatched aftermarket support. Whether you're chasing squirrels, shooting steel, or introducing a new shooter to the sport, this rifle delivers premium performance in an ultra-lightweight package.
