The Chiappa Little Badger is a break-action .22 LR rifle built for hunters, varmint shooters, and plinkers who value light weight and portability without sacrificing reliability. At just 2.93 pounds and 32 inches overall, this single-shot rimfire delivers the kind of compact handling that makes it ideal for backpack hunting, field work, or simply tossing in a truck for opportunistic shooting. The 16.5-inch barrel keeps the Little Badger nimble in thick cover while the matte black finish resists glare and weather.
The Little Badger's design balances no-nonsense function with practical features. Its fiber optic front sight pairs with an adjustable rear sight for quick target acquisition, while the threaded barrel opens up options for sound suppressors or other muzzle devices. The wire frame construction keeps the rifle featherlight, and the rubber grip ensures control even in rough handling. As a single-shot break-action, there's no complex mechanism to foul or fail—just straightforward, proven mechanics that work every time.
This is a rifle that earns its keep. Whether you're clearing property of ground squirrels, teaching a young shooter the fundamentals, or carrying a backup rifle on a longer hunt, the Little Badger delivers accuracy and reliability in a package you'll actually want to carry. The included nylon carry bag and cartridge holder make it field-ready out of the box.
