About This Firearm
The Ruger 10/22 Takedown is a two-piece semi-automatic .22 LR built for packing into a bag or behind a truck seat. Ruger no longer makes it, so it's a used buy. The barrel separates from the action without tools, and a carry case came in the box to hold the two halves.
A gold bead front sight and an adjustable rear are fitted, and the box also held one 10-round rotary magazine and a combination scope base adapter cut for both Weaver-style rings and rimfire tip-off mounts. There is no rail on the receiver, so an optic sits on that adapter. The safety is a cross-bolt and nothing on the rifle adjusts. The muzzle is not threaded, so a rimfire can means having the barrel cut.
If you're cross-shopping, the Ruger 10/22 Carbine is one piece in alloy steel and hardwood at 5.00 lbs, where this rifle's stainless barrel and synthetic stock bring it to 4.60 lbs, and it is out of production as well. A new Savage A22 has an MSRP of $359 and a rotary magazine of its own, but it does not come apart.

Strengths & Limitations
- Ruger states that simple reassembly returns the rifle to zero even with a receiver-mounted optic, because the barrel indexes back into the same position.
- Magazines, trigger groups and barrels interchange with the rest of the 10/22 line, so a used one can be rebuilt from stocked parts.
- The stainless barrel and synthetic stock mean a rifle that lives in a pack does not come out of it rusted.
- A used one is often missing the case and the base adapter, and both were part of the original package.
- One magazine came in the box, so a second and a third are on the owner.
- Ruger no longer lists the model, so parts and warranty questions go to the general 10/22 line.
