We got a chance to hang out with Jason, the owner of Targets USA and a brand ambassador for Tippmann Arms, who introduced us to the latest addition to the M4-22 Tippmann Arms’ lineup—the RCR-24.
Jason gave us the skinny on what makes the RCR-24 stand out. The rifle sports a 16-inch steel barrel with a fluted magnesium sleeve, making it incredibly lightweight at just over 4 lbs.
This newest model replaces the previous aluminum sleeve with magnesium to enhance its feather-light design. Another standout feature is the threaded barrel with a thread protector, allowing users to easily suppress the M4-22 RCR-24.
Tippmann Arms RCR-24 Features
The aluminum handguard, an upgrade from the predecessor’s plastic version, now includes a bolt catch for convenient bolt manipulation.
Also, Jason demonstrated an MP5 esque “slap to charge” move, showcasing the rifle’s user-friendly design
To complement this rifle, Tippmann Arms has released a speed loader, designed with efficiency in mind.
Additionally, it is compatible with various 22-specific magazines. This speed loader comes equipped with a feed tray and an oiler to facilitate seamless ammunition loading.
With a price point of approximately $800 (excluding optics), the Tippmann Arms M4-22 RCR-24 may be a compelling option for plinkers and competitive shooters.
