The Ruger Wrangler is a single-action rimfire revolver produced by Sturm, Ruger & Co. Chambered for .22 Long Rifle cartridges, it was announced in April 2019.[2] The revolver makes extensive use of aluminum and zinc castings for ease of manufacturability,[3] and also has an unfluted cylinder and uses metal injection molded components for further cost reduction.[4] The Wrangler's price point of $250 has been described as "very attractive", and is less than half the MSRP of Ruger's Single-Six and Bearcat models.[3][5][6][7]
