Meet the Retay RXP 22: The Outdoor Enthusiast’s New Best Friend
For outdoor lovers—from backyard plinkers to gun-range regulars—the newly launched Retay RXP 22 blends rugged reliability, customizable performance, and an unbeatable value. Priced at $279.99 MSRP (Scott’s Outdoors $224.99), it's a .22 LR pistol that punches far above its price tag.
Why the RXP 22 Fits Your Outdoor Life
1. Feels Like Your Carry Gun, Costs the Same as a Day at the Range
The RXP 22 mirrors the ergonomics and trigger of a compact 9 mm pistol, making it a perfect stand-in for concealed‑carry training—without blowing through pricey ammo. Its compact polymer frame, integrated grip texturing, and double/single‑action hammer design emulate real‑deal firearms, so your dry‑fire practice translates directly to your carry piece.
2. Built Tough, Built to Last
Inside its lightweight polymer chassis lies a high‑grade 7075 aluminum alloy frame and slide—the same durable metals found in premium pistols. Topped with a 4″ precision‑drilled, chrome‑finished AISI 4140 barrel, the RXP 22 offers accuracy and longevity that surpass typical rimfire guns.
3. Ready for Upgrades and Quick Adaptation
The slide comes pre‑drilled for RMR and RMSC optics, packed with a universal mounting plate. Whether you're adding a red‑dot or keeping it iron‑sight-only, the RXP 22 adapts to your needs. It also includes an accessory rail for compact lights or lasers—ideal for low-light scenarios.
4. Suppressor‑Friendly and Versatile
Choose the threaded-barrel model if you're planning to use a suppressor or barrel device. The reversible magazine release, TruGlo fiber‑optic front sight, and adjustable rear sight round out the package for immersive outdoor shooting sessions.
5. Guaranteed for Life
Outdoor gear takes a beating. Thankfully, the RXP 22 is backed by Retay’s limited lifetime warranty, so you can train hard and explore harder—without worry.
