THE MAGPUL X-22 w/the GEMTECH MIST-22 SILENCER: The Ultimate Backpack & Survival Rifle

Published on December 31, 2018

I really like the Ruger 10/22. So what do you get when you join it with a GEMTECH MIST-22 silecer from SilencerShop, a MAGPUL X-22 Backpacker stock and a Primary Arms Advanced Micro Dot sight? You get what is quite possibly the ultimate backpack rifle out there. It’s light, accurate, easy to use and extremely quiet.

The Magpul X-22 Backpacker stock takes the function of our full-size Hunter X-22 Takedown, and pares it down for ease of storage and transportation. Made for the Ruger 10/22 Takedown rifle, the X-22 Backpacker offers a minimalist solution for the hunter or outdoorsman who wants to transport their rifle in an efficient, convenient package without compromising shooting performance.

Constructed of a durable advanced polymer, the X-22 Backpacker features an ergonomic hand guard, optional QD sling mounting capability, integrated storage compartment in the grip, a hinged storage compartment in the stock capable of storing up to 3 spare 10rd magazines, a MOE SL non-slip rubber butt pad, and a unique locking interface to attach the barrel assembly to the receiver when being transported. Fits all Ruger 10/22 Takedown rifles as well as the Tactical Solutions SBX barrel.

The Gemtech MIST-22 series of Integrally Suppressed 10/22 barrels. Using their patented G-Cor Technology, they have created a lightweight, easily maintained, and unbelievably quiet package. The MIST-22 and MIST-22TD barrels are a great way to keep your rifle compact without adding the extra length of a standard suppressor. Both barrels use a match grade 22LR chamber.

They feature a 1-16″ RH Twist for use with commercially available bull barrel stocks, or, specifically engineered for use with the Ruger 10/22 Takedown Rifle (Requires bull barrel style stock/forend for either model). With either MIST-22 barrel the Absolute Sound Level is 114dB.
