Seamlessly integrating with the Ruger® 10/22® and 10/22 Takedown® series of rifles, the MBS 22 Mod 1 is more than just a bullpup conversion. The MBS 22 Mod 1 shares many of the same great features of the standard MBS 22 but provides shooters an additional 2" to the length of pull thanks to a quick deploying collapsible stock module, making it a great option for left handed or larger shooters. Combining the utility of many accessories, like a left side charging handle, quick release bolt lock, and M-Lok compatible handguard into one system, the MBS 22 Mod 1 is like no other accessory for the 10/22. Our design retains all of the benefits of a bullpup, like compactness and balance, while dramatically mitigating the drawbacks of other designs, such as poor trigger performance and complex disassembly steps.
By deviating from the typical left and right "clamshell" design, our Modular Bullpup System eliminates the nuts and bolts inherent to other conversions and allows the rifle to be field stripped in a matter of seconds. Removing a few pins and the factory takedown screw is all it takes to separate the receiver and trigger assembly from the MBS 22. Optics and accessories mounted to the MBS 22 Mod 1's picatinny rails and eight M-Lok slots can even be left in place to help hold zero.
Another feature of the MBS 22 that sets it apart from the competition is the trigger linkage. Our dual arm linkage is made from nitride treated steel for maximum corrosion resistance and rigidity. Uniquely, it can be set up with either a "Direct" or "Cammed" pull linkage system. The Cammed Trigger Linkage actually reduces the perceived trigger weight of the factory trigger from about 5 pounds to around 3.5 pounds with absolutely no modification to the OEM fire control components. The "Direct Pull Linkage" system works like a more traditional bullpup linkage, transferring energy in a smooth linear motion to ensure crisp breaks and quick resets. The trigger linkage can be adjusted for take-up and overtravel (see instructions for correct adjustment methods) and even the pull weight of the MBS 22's trigger linkage can be adjusted for unparalleled trigger customization among bullpup conversions.
Featuring a removable shell deflector, ambidextrous charging handles, and a trigger block safety, the MBS 22 can be utilized by left or right handed users out of the box. The charging handle incorporates a rock-to-lock mechanism, allowing the bolt to be held open in one smooth motion and then closed with a slap. Bull barrels up to .920" in diameter can be used, as well as a variety of other types, like the Ruger factory tapered barrel, thanks to three sizes of interchangeable bushings included with each kit. The MBS 22 even conceals a compartment inside the grip behind the removable knuckle guard to house tools, parts, or batteries.
In the MBS 22's lightest configuration (deflector, knuckle guard, and accessories removed), the complete rifle weighs only slightly more than a 10/22 in the typical OEM configuration, or less than 5.5 pounds. At only 26.25" long with a 16.1" barrel and the stock extended, the MBS 22 Mod 1 is as compact as an SBR without the tax stamp and better balanced than a traditional rifle, allowing for effortless one-handed shooting. If set up as an SBR, barrels as short as 9" can be used and the open front handguard allows for suppressors to nest inside for an incredibly small and maneuverable overall package. To further shrink it's footprint, the MBS 22 Mod 1's collapsible stock reduces the overall length by about 2" when collapsed and can be deployed instantly by pulling out on the buttstock plate.
Made from durable glass reinforced injection molded polymer and nitride treated steel, the MBS 22 is built to be used for a lifetime which is why we guarantee it with the same lifetime warranty that covers all HTA products. Accepts all factory and aftermarket magazines. Made in the USA. *Ruger 10/22 and accessories not included.
US RESIDENTS: IMPORTANT! 10/22 barrels 16.1" and over are long enough to produce a legal length rifle in the MBS 22 in most jurisdictions. Federal laws and regulations have established that rifles must have a minimum barrel length of 16" and an overall length of 26", with the stock extended.
Some states or local jurisdictions may have further regulations governing this product when assembled on a 10/22 (NY, CT, etc). This stock will add what is considered a "pistol grip" by some states, a collapsible stock, and shorten the overall length below some states' minimum requirement which may be longer than 26", or may require overall length be measured with stocks in the collapsed position (MI). By purchasing this item, the buyer is acknowledging they understand their state and local laws and intend to comply with any further infringements on their rights.
