The Ruger 10/22 Mannlicher Birch Stock is one of the earliest discontinued 10/22 variants — a full-length birch stock extending to the muzzle with a steel barrel band, manufactured in the late 1960s and early 1970s before the International variant replaced it with a walnut option. The birch Mannlicher is a genuine collector piece: original examples in original condition are uncommon and represent early 10/22 production history. Type: Rifle Action: Semi-Automatic Caliber: 22 LR Capacity: 10 Year introduced: 1969, USA Weight: 80 oz Overall length: 37.25" Status: Discontinued Intended use: collector, historical
