The Magpul X-22 Backpacker Stock transforms the Ruger 10/22 Takedown into a compact, packable rifle system that stores the barrel and action within the stock itself. This innovative storage solution reduces overall length by 50% while maintaining the rifle's accuracy and reliability.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional takedown storage methods that require separate cases or bags, the X-22 Backpacker integrates barrel storage directly into the buttstock. The patent-pending design uses a weather-resistant seal to protect stored components from moisture and debris. When assembled, the stock provides the same solid lockup and consistent point of impact as factory configurations.
Key Features
- Internal barrel storage reduces packaged length from 37" to 19.5"
- Weather-sealed storage compartment protects components during transport
- Drop-in installation requires no gunsmithing or permanent modifications
- Textured grip surfaces and sling attachment points for field use
- Compatible with factory trigger groups and most aftermarket accessories
- Reinforced polymer construction withstands field conditions
- Tool-free assembly and disassembly in under 30 seconds
Field testing demonstrates the X-22 Backpacker maintains sub-2 MOA accuracy after repeated assembly cycles. The stock's compact profile fits standard backpacks and vehicle storage compartments, making it practical for backcountry hunting, survival applications, and space-constrained transport. The Flat Dark Earth finish resists UV fading and provides effective camouflage in diverse environments.
