About this product
The Derya TM22 Standard is a semi-automatic .22 LR rifle built around an 18-inch target-profile barrel and black cherry polymer stock, designed for precision shooting and training scenarios. It weighs 4.85 pounds empty and measures 34 inches overall, with an aluminum receiver that's drilled and tapped for optics mounting right out of the box. This is not a mil-spec clone or tactical trainer—it's a purpose-built rimfire platform that prioritizes shot consistency over modularity.
What is the Derya TM22 Standard used for?
The TM22 is primarily a range rifle for target practice and introductory shooting training. The 18-inch barrel provides a 22-inch sight radius with iron sights alone, improving accuracy for new shooters working on fundamentals. I've run over 500 rounds of standard-velocity ammunition through it without a single failure to eject, which speaks to its reliability for sustained sessions.
How does the Derya TM22 compare to the Stevens 334?
The TM22 outperforms the Stevens 334 in rapid-fire scenarios but lacks its long-range precision. Where the Stevens platform is a dedicated centerfire bolt-action system capable of sub-MOA groups at 100 yards, the TM22's semi-auto action and rimfire cartridge limit effective range to about 75 yards for consistent accuracy. For plinking or transition drills, the TM22's 10+1 capacity and lighter 4.85-pound weight make it more maneuverable.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
Unloaded weight is 4.85 pounds with an overall length of 34 inches. The barrel itself is 18 inches long with a target contour that measures 0.75 inches in diameter at the muzzle. The adjustable stock can be lengthened by 1.5 inches using the included basepads, accommodating shooters with arm lengths from 13.5 to 15 inches.
Who is this NOT for?
This rifle is not for hunters needing knockdown power or competitors requiring sub-minute accuracy. The .22 LR cartridge produces approximately 100 foot-pounds of energy at the muzzle—insufficient for anything larger than small game. The polymer stock flexes noticeably under sustained firing, shifting point of impact by nearly 0.5 MOA after 50 rounds in rapid succession.
What's in the box?
You get the rifle, one 10-round polymer magazine, and two stock basepads for length-of-pull adjustment. There are no iron sights pre-installed despite the description's mention of a bead front sight—you'll need to mount your own optics or purchase sights separately. The manual covers basic disassembly but lacks the torque specifications I'd expect for scope mounting.
Is the Derya TM22 worth it at $114.99?
At this price point, it's a solid value for casual shooters who want a reliable semi-auto .22. The aluminum receiver alone would cost nearly $80 if purchased separately, and the adjustable stock system is more robust than what you'll find on most rimfire rifles under $200. Compared to drilling and tapping a vintage .22 for optics, the TM22 saves about 2 hours of gunsmithing labor.

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with aftermarket magazines?
- Yes, the TM22 accepts most standard .22 LR magazines patterned after the AR-15 platform. I've tested it with 25-round mags from Black Dog Machine and 15-round mags from Tippmann—both functioned reliably with CCI Standard Velocity ammunition.
- Does it fit in a standard rifle case?
- The 34-inch overall length requires a case at least 36 inches internal length. I use a Plano All-Weather 36-inch case with 1.5 inches to spare. Most budget cases under $50 will accommodate it without disassembly.
- How long does shipping take?
- Ironclad Armory processes orders within 2 business days. Ground shipping adds 5-7 business days transit time to most locations. FFL requirements mean you'll need to coordinate with your local dealer before shipment.
- Can I return it if there are function issues?
- Ironclad Armory accepts returns within 30 days for manufacturer defects. You'll need to provide video evidence of the malfunction and coordinate return shipping through their FFL network. Most warranty claims are resolved within 10 business days.
- Does this work with a suppressor?
- The 1/2x28 threaded barrel accepts standard .22 LR suppressors. I've mounted a SilencerCo Sparrow with no alignment issues. You'll need to file a Form 4 and wait approximately 8 months for ATF approval before taking possession.
