Volquartsen’s most compact Scorpion package features an overall length of approximately 8″ and weighs only 1 lb. 12 oz. The 3″ Scorpion LLV has been combined with the Volquartsen lightweight VF Target Frame in the 1911 grip angle to create a very lightweight and extremely accurate 22 LR.
The 3″ Scorpion LLV upper features a stainless steel barrel (with stainless steel, laser-hardened breech) housed in an aluminum shroud. This design provides match-grade accuracy in a lightweight package. The barrel is threaded 1/2 x 28, making it the perfect suppressor host. An integral Picatinny rail on top is standard.
The Volquartsen Competition Bolt with DLC Coating ensures smooth operation and function. This bolt is a must when shooting suppressed.
The 3″ Scorpion LLV upper will also be available as a standalone product which is compatible with the Ruger® MK II and MK III pistols.
“Shooting rimfires suppressed is more popular now than ever and the Mini Scorpion provides the perfect suppressor host. Its 3″ barrel length allows for a lightweight, compact pistol even with the suppressor installed”, commented Volquartsen President Scott Volquartsen.
