Franklin Armory and Angstadt Arms have teamed up to create the F22-V. It takes the Franklin Armory F22 and incorporates the Vanquish 22 integral suppressor barrel from Angstadt Arms. Keep reading for all the details about the various models.


Franklin Armory @ TFB:


The new F22-V keeps the features the original is known for, like the enhanced firing pin and extended magazine release, but adds the Vanquish 22 suppressed barrel assemply. This suppressor design has no baffles. The ported design of the barrel vents away propellant gases, which drops most ammunition to subsonic velocities.


 

There are two options for trigger mechanisms. The Franlin Binary system, which fires on both the pull and the release, and the standard Ruger BX trigger. Other 10/22-style triggers are compatible as well. I had the opportunity to shoot the F22-V SBR with a binary trigger at Industry Day At The Range, and it was a blast. You could certainly go through a large amount of .22 LR ammo in an afternoon with one of these.


Franlin Armory offers three versions: a pistol, a rifle, and an SBR. The pistol version features a folding SB Tactical FS1913 brace and SB22 chassis and 12-inch Vanquish 22 barrel. The SBR model utilizes a Magpul MOE X-22 stock and 12-inch Vanquish 22 barrel. The rifle model couples the MOE X-22 stock with an 18-inch Vanquish barrel.


Pricing:

F22-V SBR: $1249, $1399 with binary trigger

F22-V Pistol: $1499, $1649 with binary trigger

F22-V Rifle: $1249, $1399 with binary trigger




Angstadt Arms also had a new rimfire suppressor. The Reticent 22 is a 3D-printed titanium suppressor that is extremely light. It pairs nicely with Ruger rimfire pistols, as shown below. Also note the picture with a pen shown for scale; this is a tiny can! Look for more details on this one soon.





Franklin Armory, one of America's leading manufacturers of innovative firearms and accessories, is pleased to announce it has partnered with Angstadt Arms to offer integrally suppressed models of Franklin Armory's popular F22™ series. The new F22-V™ pistols, rifles, and SBRs feature Vanquish 22 integrally suppressed barrels from Angstadt Arms, providing an impressive combination of accuracy and whisper-quiet performance. Attendees of the 2026 SHOT Show Industry Day at the Range will have an opportunity to test fire Franklin Armory's new F22-V firearms at bay SR-38.

Franklin Armory F22s are the only 22 long rifle pistols and rifles optimized for the patented Binary Firing System®. The new F22-V can be configured with either a Binary® trigger or a traditional semiautomatic factory Ruger® 10/22® BX-Trigger®. Each F22 pistol and rifle features a machined receiver made from 7075 aluminum and an enhanced firing pin system for better ignition. All F22s come with a 10rd Factory Ruger® Magazine.
