The AL22 is a solid, stainless steel revolver intended to satisfy successive generations of rimfire shooters. The design of the fast-loading cylinder and crane allow recoil forces to be transferred directly to the frame, minimizing wear. The lockwork design rotates the cylinder to keep the gun precisely in time, ensuring proper alignment of the chamber to the barrel, and positive lockup. The AL22 features a capacity of nine rounds of .22 LR ammunition and a durable, stainless steel finish. The AL rimfire series revolvers also incorporate a drop safety to enhance safety for both shooters and spectators. The fully-shrouded four-inch barrel protects the ejector rod from external damage, even under rough usage. With an adjustable rear sight, the AL22 is an ideal choice for shooters who desire to practice with low-recoil, economical .22 LR ammunition.
