New Rimfire Rifles for 2022

As we look at the new guns being introduced this year, some trends seem to be emerging. While micro 9 mm carry guns are still being introduced, some established manufacturers of such pistols are making versions just a little longer for improved ergonomics. “Optic-ready” or “optic-equipped” pistols continue to increase in number. Also, enhanced-capacity pistols chambered in the new 30 Super Carry are already hitting the market, but these are just the tip of what is predicted to be an iceberg. Elsewhere, the flooded market of AR-platform rifles is now resulting in higher quality, feature-rich guns as manufacturers compete for your firearm dollar. Lastly, precision long-range shooting has resulted in off-the-shelf rifles with accuracy unimaginable just a few short years ago.
