TandemKross Temptest

Compatible with most versions of the Ruger Mark IV 22/45 platform (as well as the company’s own Kraken lower receiver) the TandemKross Tempest consists of an enlarged, flared magazine well and a pair of aggressively textured stock panels that together make it even easier to run these rimfires quickly and well.

The widened aluminum well hastens the speed at which reloads can be made, and the dimpled stocks make it even easier to keep the target in your sights under recoil.

The Tempest magazine well and stock panels install in only minutes, without requiring any permanent modifications to the pistol, and can be removed just as easily.

MSRP is $250. For more information, visit tandemkross.com.
