Description

If you've already got your Ruger 10/22 Takedown wearing the Magpul X-22 Backpacker Stock and you want to run more than one barrel, this is the piece you've been looking for. The X-22 Backpacker Forend lets you build a second (or third) barrel and optic combo that snaps right into the same stock, so you can swap setups without buying a whole new rig. It's the small part that makes a modular takedown build work the way it should.

What the X-22 Backpacker Forend Brings to the Table

This forend is built from a reinforced advanced polymer, so it shrugs off the knocks that come with a trail gun while staying light. It weighs in right around 3.54 ounces and measures about 5.85 inches, keeping the front end trim and easy to handle. The real trick is the locking interface, which grabs the barrel assembly and holds it securely to the stock body when the rifle is broken down. That means your barrel, forend, and any mounted optic all pack together as one tidy bundle.

Barrel Fit and Everyday Use

One of the best things about this forend is how flexible it is with barrels. It clears factory and aftermarket tubes up to 0.92 inch outer diameter, so heavier bull barrels and threaded options are on the table. The ergonomic handguard shape gives you a comfortable, natural hold whether you're plinking off a bench or carrying it through the backcountry. Pair it with a spare barrel and you've got a quick-change setup that reassembles in seconds and holds zero when it goes back together.

A Smart Add-On for the Backpacker Crowd

Made in the USA, this OD Green forend keeps that muted, outdoors-friendly look going across your whole kit. If you camp, hike, or just like the idea of a .22 that tucks into a pack, having a dedicated forend for each barrel is the move. It's a simple, drop-in style part that expands what your Backpacker Stock can do.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need the X-22 Backpacker Stock to use this forend?

Yes. The X-22 Backpacker Forend is designed to work with a Ruger 10/22 Takedown that already has the Magpul X-22 Backpacker Stock (MAG808) installed. It's meant to let you set up additional barrels that lock into that same stock, so it isn't a standalone stock replacement.

What barrels will fit inside the X-22 Backpacker Forend?

It clears both factory and aftermarket barrels up to 0.92 inch outer diameter. That opens the door to heavier bull barrels and threaded options, not just the standard Ruger tube. If your barrel measures under that 0.92 inch mark, you're good to go.

Why would I want a second forend instead of just swapping one back and forth?

Having a dedicated forend on each barrel means you can build multiple barrel and optic combos that stay ready to run. You just pop one barrel assembly out and snap the next one in, and it all packs down into the Backpacker Stock the same way. It's the easiest path to a true multi-barrel takedown setup.

Can I keep my optic mounted when I break the rifle down?

Yes. The whole point of the Backpacker system is that the barrel and forend, with an optic attached, lock together and stow as one compact package. When you reassemble, the rifle comes back to shooting condition in seconds and your zero stays put.
