The Crickett is America's premier youth rifle. This single-shot .22 features a manual cocking bolt, rebounding firing pin safety, adjustable peep sights, and a light 2.5 lb. trigger pull. Built with a stainless steel barrel and American walnut stock, it's designed for young shooters learning proper firearms handling.
The Crickett: Built for Young Shooters
The Keystone Crickett represents the gold standard in youth rifle design. This is a purpose-built platform for introducing young shooters to the fundamentals of marksmanship and safe firearm handling.
Safety First
The Crickett's design philosophy centers on safety. The manual cocking mechanism—similar to a revolver's hammer—requires deliberate action before each shot, reinforcing safe handling practices. A rebounding firing pin safety automatically blocks the pin to prevent accidental discharge, even if the rifle is dropped or mishandled.

Why the Crickett Works
The short length of pull and lightweight design fit young shooters comfortably. The light trigger pull and single-shot design encourage deliberate, accurate shooting rather than rapid fire. The stainless steel barrel resists corrosion, and the American walnut stock provides durability and classic aesthetics.
This rifle has earned its reputation as America's best starter rifle for good reason.
