The Volquartsen Mini Scorpion is a premium rimfire pistol chambered in .22 LR, built on a modified Ruger Mark platform. This competition-grade pistol features a 3" threaded LLV-4 competition barrel with compensator, providing enhanced accuracy and reduced muzzle flip. The upper receiver is machined from 6061-T6 aluminum, while the frame features the Volquartsen Accurizing Kit for improved trigger performance. Key features include an adjustable target trigger (2.0-2.5 lb pull weight), Picatinny-style optics rail, fiber optic front sight with adjustable rear sight, and extended magazine release. The pistol includes the signature Volquartsen CNC-machined bolt with improved extraction and feeding reliability. Weighing approximately 32 ounces unloaded, the Mini Scorpion accepts standard Ruger Mark series magazines with 10-round capacity. The pistol incorporates premium upgrades including a competition bolt stop, target grips with thumb rest, and a match-grade barrel with 1:16" twist rate. Available in various finishes including black anodized and custom Cerakote options. The Mini Scorpion's compact 3-inch configuration excels in rimfire competition shooting where maneuverability is key, particularly in Steel Challenge and Rimfire Challenge events, while also serving as an excellent training platform.
