The Crickett KSA2243 My First Rifle Youth 22 LR pairs a stainless steel barrel with a blued, drilled and tapped receiver and a desert tan synthetic stock to create a compact, easy-handling rimfire trainer. This single-shot bolt-action rifle uses manual cocking and a rebounding firing pin safety, giving new shooters a clear, deliberate sequence for loading and firing while keeping safety at the forefront.

Designed specifically as a youth rifle, the KSA2243 features an 11.5" length of pull, a 16.125" barrel, and lightweight construction that makes it comfortable for smaller shooters during range sessions and introductory training. Fixed front and adjustable rear peep sights provide a simple, precise sight picture, and the receiver is drilled and tapped to accept Crickett scope mounts for future upgrades. It is ideal for basic marksmanship practice, plinking, and supervised training, reflecting Crickett’s reputation for thoughtful design and dependable craftsmanship in youth firearms.
