Midwest Chassis Rug Fxd 10/22 8" 8

The Midwest Industries Chassis System Fixed 10/22 8-inch is a purpose-built aluminum chassis designed to modernize the Ruger 10/22 platform by replacing the factory stock with a modular, AR-15-compatible ergonomic system. Constructed from 6061 aluminum with hard coat anodize protection, this chassis transforms the 10/22 into a configurable rimfire platform suitable for precision shooting, training, and tactical drills where lightweight handling and quick accessory swaps are valued.

The chassis accepts standard AR-15 pistol grips and features a threaded rear end for AR-15 buffer tube installation, allowing users to select from collapsible or fixed buttstock options based on their specific use case. The 6061 aluminum construction provides rigidity while keeping overall weight manageable—critical for shooters who prioritize fast target transitions and extended shooting sessions. The hard coat anodized finish resists corrosion and wear, essential for consistent performance across varied weather conditions and frequent handling. Installation involves bolting the 10/22 barreled action directly into the chassis, a straightforward process that requires no gunsmithing.

This chassis appeals to precision shooters, competitive rimfire competitors, and training-focused operators who want to leverage familiar AR ergonomics on a 10/22 platform. The modular design enables rapid grip and stock changes without tools, adapting the rifle to different shooting positions or mission profiles. Users value the reduced sight height relative to traditional 10/22 furniture and the improved control geometry that AR grips provide. At 1.81 lbs, the chassis itself adds minimal weight, preserving the 10/22's natural speed advantage in close-quarters drills and transitional shooting.
