Miniaturized Stinger: Introducing the New Volquartsen Mini Scorpion
Luke Cuenco 11.07.23
The highly popular and higher-end Volquartsen Firearms Scorpion just got a whole lot handier to use with a suppressor with the introduction of the new Volquartsen Mini Scorpion. The smaller package still features the same 1911 grip angle and the bus is now paired with a 3″ threaded barrel upper that only measures 8″ in overall length and also features an integral Picatinny rail.

Miniaturized Stinger: Introducing the New Volquartsen Mini Scorpion
Volquartsen Firearms, an industry leader in precision rimfire firearms manufacturing, adds to their pistol lineup with the new Mini Scorpion 22 LR.
Volquartsen’s most compact Scorpion package features an overall length of approximately 8″ and weighs only 1 lb. 12 oz. The 3″ Scorpion LLV has been combined with the Volquartsen lightweight VF Target Frame in the 1911 grip angle to create a very lightweight and extremely accurate 22 LR.
The 3″ Scorpion LLV upper features a stainless steel barrel (with stainless steel, laser-hardened breech) housed in an aluminum shroud. This design provides match-grade accuracy in a lightweight package. The barrel is threaded 1/2 x 28, making it the perfect suppressor host. An integral Picatinny rail on top is standard.
The Volquartsen Competition Bolt with DLC Coating ensures smooth operation and function. This bolt is a must when shooting suppressed.
The 3″ Scorpion LLV upper will also be available as a standalone product which is compatible with the Ruger® MK II and MK III pistols.
“Shooting rimfires suppressed is more popular now than ever and the Mini Scorpion provides the perfect suppressor host. Its 3″ barrel length allows for a lightweight, compact pistol even with the suppressor installed”, commented Volquartsen President Scott Volquartsen.
The new Volquartsen Mini Scorpion is going to retail for $1,481.50 and comes from the factory virtually decked out for competition shooting or just for use as an accurate and quiet suppressor host. For more information, you can visit http://volquartsen.com/.
