The Taurus TX22 Gen3 Brace Ready 22LR Optic Ready Handgun is an innovative, highly adaptable tactical rimfire package designed to maximize stability and shot-to-shot precision. Built on an updated full-size polymer frame featuring an integrated rear M1913 Picatinny extension, it comes factory-equipped with the folding Strike Industries FSA Lite brace to provide an extra point of control. The optics-ready T.O.R.O. slide features a direct RMSc-pattern footprint cut for seamless micro red dot deployment without adapter plates. For smooth handling and slide manipulation when utilizing the brace or an optic, it introduces a low-profile ambidextrous charging handle at the rear plate of the slide. This state-compliant configuration balances high-volume range utility with regional compliance requirements by shipping with two restricted 10-round magazines.
