Key Features

• Manual-Cocking Bolt Action – Why it matters: Gives you full control over the firing cycle, reducing accidental discharge risk and teaching deliberate trigger discipline. The rebounding firing pin safety adds an extra layer of protection.
• 16.1-Inch Blued Barrel – Why it matters: Balances portability with accuracy for 25-50 yard small-bore shooting. The length keeps the rifle compact for young shooters or backpack carry while maintaining enough velocity for reliable bullet expansion.
• Serenity Camouflage Fixed Synthetic Stock – Why it matters: The camo pattern blends into field environments, and the synthetic material resists moisture and dings. No rattling or shifting during shooting.
• Included 4×32 Scope and Aluminum Base – Why it matters: Saves you the cost and hassle of mounting optics. The 4x magnification is ideal for rimfire distances, and the aluminum base keeps the setup light.
• Soft Rifle Case Included – Why it matters: Protects the rifle during transport and storage. A $20-30 value that makes this a ready-to-shoot package out of the box.
