American-made single-shot bolt-action rifle designed for young shooters. Features rebounding firing pin safety, EZ Loader, adjustable peep sight, and weighs under 3 pounds. Accepts 22 Short, Long, and Long Rifle ammunition.
For over two decades, the Keystone Crickett has introduced young shooters to the fundamentals of rifle marksmanship. This is a purpose-built training rifle—nothing more, nothing less—and it does that job exceptionally well.
The Crickett is a manual cocking, single-shot bolt-action rifle. Its simplicity is intentional. With no magazine to manage and only one round at a time, the shooter focuses entirely on the essentials: sight picture, trigger control, and follow-through.
The safety system features a rebounding firing pin that is automatically blocked to prevent accidental discharge. This is genuine protection, not theater.
Young shooters learn discipline and responsibility with a rifle that demands their full attention. There are no shortcuts here—every shot requires deliberate action. That builds genuine marksmanship skills that transfer to any firearm later in life.
Made in the USA.
