Tippmann Arms M4-22 .22 LR 16-Inch 25rd Gray/Black

The Tippmann Arms M4-22 .22 LR 16-inch 25rd Gray/Black is a semi-automatic rimfire rifle that brings the familiar M4 manual of arms to a lightweight, low-recoil platform. It is built around a 16-inch threaded barrel, a collapsible M4-style stock, and an M-LOK handguard, making it ready for economical training, recreational plinking, and small-game hunting. Chambered in .22 LR and supplied with a 25-round magazine, this rifle delivers the feel and function of a duty-grade AR without the cost of centerfire ammunition.

Key Features

• Mil-Spec AR-15 Controls — Why it matters: Your family can train with the exact same safety selector, magazine release, and charging handle as a standard AR-15, building muscle memory that transfers directly to centerfire rifles.
• 16-Inch Threaded Barrel with M-LOK Handguard — Why it matters: The threaded muzzle lets you attach a suppressor or compensator, while the M-LOK handguard gives you plenty of rail space for lights, grips, or lasers — all without adding bulk.
• 25-Round Magazine Included — Why it matters: More rounds between reloads means more time focusing on sight picture and trigger control, especially useful when teaching new shooters or running drills.
• Collapsible M4-Style Stock — Why it matters: Adjust the length of pull to fit smaller or larger shooters in seconds, so everyone from your teenager to your spouse can get a proper cheek weld and comfortable stance.
• Economical .22 LR Chambering — Why it matters: At roughly 5-10 cents per round, you can shoot a full afternoon for the price of a single box of 5.56, making practice affordable and frequent.
