The Crickett: America's Premier Youth Rifle
For over two decades, the Keystone Crickett has earned its reputation as the finest first rifle for young shooters. This is not a scaled-down adult rifle—it is purpose-designed from the ground up for the beginner.
Safety First
The Crickett's manual-cocking mechanism operates like a revolver's hammer, giving the young shooter direct control and immediate feedback. The rebounding firing pin is automatically blocked to prevent accidental discharge, and the 2.5-pound trigger pull is crisp and predictable. These features combine to create an inherently safe platform for learning proper shooting fundamentals.
Designed for Young Hands
With an 11.5-inch length of pull and an overall length of 30.5 inches, the Crickett fits the shooter rather than forcing the shooter to fit the rifle. At under 3 pounds, it is light enough for extended practice without fatigue. The black synthetic stock is durable and requires minimal maintenance.
Practical Features
- Stainless steel barrel resists corrosion and requires less maintenance
- EZ Load feed ramp simplifies ammunition loading for small hands
- Adjustable rear peep sight and fixed front post allow precise sight-in and adjustment as the shooter grows
- Sling swivel studs enable secure carry and shooting support
- Single-shot design encourages deliberate, focused shooting practice
Built to Last
Manufactured in the USA, the Crickett is backed by a lifetime warranty. It is the rifle that teaches proper technique, builds confidence, and creates lifelong shooters.
