One of the most repeatable and reliable rimfire takedown rifles to date has been the Volquatsen VT2 Takedown rifle. Previously released in .22 WMR and .17 HMR, the VT2 Takedown rifles sport a standard AR-15 buffer tube and stock, a 0-MOA integral Picatinny rail on its receiver, and of course AR-15 grips and M-LOK attachment points. Now Volquartsen is bringing all of those same features to the new .22 LR VT2 Takedown Rifle.

Carroll, IA – Volquartsen Firearms, an industry leader in precision rimfire firearms manufacturing, has announced their VT2 Takedown rifle is now available in 22 LR.
Utilizing a unique button and lever combination, the VT2 requires no tools, no twisting, and no tightening.
“A takedown platform is only as good as its repeatability. This reason is why it was critical for us to be able to design a takedown rifle that not only required no tools, but was able to be accurate, repeatable, and reliable every time its reassembled,” commented Volquartsen President Scott Volquartsen.
Simply depress the takedown button, release the locking lever by pulling down, and the barrel slides effortlessly out of the receiver. The rifle is then ready to be stowed.
For reassembly, simply slide the barrel back into the receiver and push the locking lever back up into position.
Like everything Volquartsen, accuracy and repeatability come standard. The unique design and exacting tolerances combine to ensure that the point of impact remains fixed even after removing and reinstalling the barrel. No matter how it’s stored, the VT2 is built to be on target.
The VT2 is also available in 22 WMR and 17 HMR calibers. This allows for the corresponding barrels to be swapped to immediately switch calibers.
The new 22 LR VT2 rifle from Volquartsen is available in two different handguard lengths including the longer one pictured at the top of this article, or the shorter one pictured just above. Each rifle regardless of the handguard length chosen will start pricing at $2,261 and go up from there as each Volquartsen rifle is built to order.
