Overview

The Volquartsen ENV Pistol is a chassis-based rimfire pistol that mates a Volquartsen barreled action to a lightweight aluminum chassis developed with Enoch Industries. Chambered in .22 LR or .17 HMR, it accepts AR-15-pattern grips and supports M-LOK and Picatinny accessory mounting for compact, modular versatility. It uses a Magpul MOE-K grip, a Slate Stop hand stop, the TG2000 trigger group, and a 1/2 x 28 threaded muzzle. Barrel lengths of 6 inch and 9 inch are offered, with optional pistol-brace configurations.

Background

Volquartsen Firearms was founded by Tom Volquartsen in 1974 in Carroll, Iowa, and built its reputation accurizing the Ruger 10/22 and Ruger Mark-series rimfires into match-grade competition platforms. The company is widely regarded as the benchmark for premium rimfire performance.
