Keystone Crickett KSA2245BSC | My First Rifle | 22 LR

The Keystone Crickett KSA2245BSC “My First Rifle” is a manual-cocking, single-shot bolt-action rifle packaged for new shooters. It is chambered for .22 S/L/LR and features a rebounding firing pin that is automatically blocked to reduce the chance of an accidental discharge. The rifle ships with a 4×32 scope, aluminum base and soft rifle case, and its lightweight design (under 3 pounds) and short length of pull are intended to fit youth and smaller-framed shooters. For a dedicated optic upgrade, a rimfire-capable scope such as a Vortex Crossfire II 2-7×32 provides a practical, sub-$1000 option that pairs well with the rifle’s compact profile.

Applications: suitable for youth target practice and introductory small-game field use.
