There are limited-edition runs, and then there are runs that feel like they captured a moment in time.

Overview

This isn’t your average semi-auto .22. The Rossi RS22 22LR Crazy Uncle Joe AR14 Edition (One of 2020) takes the reliable, blowback-operated RS22 platform and dresses it up with a distinct aesthetic that nods to the AR-14 silhouette. It’s a rimfire rifle that feels familiar in the hands of anyone who has spent time with a modern sporting rifle, but it runs on cheap, plentiful 22LR ammunition. With a 25-round magazine and a threaded barrel, it is ready for suppressed shooting or just high-volume fun right out of the box. Every rifle in this run is individually numbered, making it a true collector’s piece from a year nobody will forget.

Features & Specs

• Caliber: 22 Long Rifle (22LR) with a 10+1 or 25-round detachable magazine capacity, feeding reliably through a straight-blowback action.
• Barrel: 18-inch threaded barrel (1/2×28 threads) with an A2-style flash hider, allowing for easy attachment of muzzle devices or suppressors.
• Stock and Ergonomics: Fixed carbine stock with a distinct “Crazy Uncle Joe” commemorative marking on the receiver, integrated picatinny rail for optics, and adjustable rear sight for windage and elevation.
• Safety: Manual cross-bolt safety located at the trigger guard for intuitive operation.
• Weight and Length: Approximately 5.5 pounds unloaded, with an overall length of 37 inches—light enough for a day hike, long enough for stable shooting.
