Keystone Sporting Arms Crickett Rifle G2 | 22 LR | 16.1 in

The Keystone Crickett Gen2 is a single-shot bolt-action youth rifle chambered in .22 Long Rifle with a 16.1-inch blued barrel and a fixed synthetic stock finished in blue with gold webbing. Generation 2 models add an EZ Load feed ramp and installed swivel studs; the receiver is drilled and tapped for optics and the sights combine an adjustable rear peep with a fixed front post. For a budget-friendly optic that pairs well with this platform, consider a low-power variable such as the Vortex Crossfire II 2-7×32 for plinking and training use, staying well under $1,000.

Typical applications for this rifle include youth marksmanship training and informal range plinking. The simple manual cocking mechanism and single-shot format are designed to encourage safe handling and teach fundamentals without complexity.
