The M22 TCM BA rifle from Rock Island Armory, RIA/Armscor is just plain awesome. We got one to augment the variety of .22 TCM pistols we got from RIA. This is a light rifle and is well balanced. We put on a Burris .22LR 2-7X rifle scope and off to the range we went. What a combination of velocity, accuracy, and power! We were hitting small rifle poppers at 100 yards within minutes. I am very impressed with this rifle and if you already own a TCM pistol, you will want to get one of these.

RIA took the success and popularity of the .22 TCM cartridge and combined it with the M22 TCM bolt-action rifle. This rifle is a small-game hunter’s dream, capable of delivering a 40-grain projectile over 2,800 feet per second out of a 22.75″ barrel. It has an MSRP of $454 which makes it an outstanding buy for what you receive. Features like a solid wood stock with classic checkering make it aesthetically pleasing. A receiver rail mount for quick scope attachment and an easy-to-reach safety with a 5-round magazine are included. You can interchange the Rock Island 22 TCM 1911 17-round magazine and you have a high-capacity rifle that makes a great companion to any TCM series pistol.


Kaden: The .22 TCM was fun to shoot. The gun is super light and easy to handle and control. There is not any recoil at all. The grip for the gun was comfortable and I was able to hit the rifle popper at 100 yards.
