The Chiappa LA322 T.D. Bandit Bootleg is a distinctive, compact .22 LR lever-action firearm combining Old West styling with a convenient takedown design. Its 12-inch steel barrel, abbreviated magazine tube, and genuine wood bird’s-head pistol grip create the unmistakable appearance of a cut-down frontier lever gun.
The takedown action allows the firearm to separate into two major components for compact storage, transportation, and easier cleaning. A short buckhorn rear sight, traditional exposed hammer, and single trigger provide a familiar lever-action shooting experience. Its lightweight alloy receiver and compact 20-inch overall length keep the Bandit Bootleg exceptionally portable, while the tubular magazine provides a 9-round capacity.
Finished in black with contrasting wood furniture, this unusual LA322 variant makes an excellent choice for recreational shooting, collecting, and anyone seeking a highly compact rimfire lever action.
