TX22 Rate Reducer

Elevate your Taurus TX22 from a standard rimfire to a precision-tuned machine. This isn't just a cosmetic upgrade—it is a functional performance component engineered to stabilize slide velocity and improve the overall "feel" of your handgun.

By adding strategic reciprocating mass to the rear of the slide, these backplates optimize the cycling rhythm, making your TX22 feel more like a full-sized centerfire pistol while maintaining the legendary reliability of the platform.

Premium Materials & Engineering

We didn’t settle for standard hardware-grade materials. This backplate is built to survive the high-volume shooting the TX22 was made for:

• 303 Stainless Steel: Chosen for its superior strength-to-weight ratio and excellent corrosion resistance.

• Passivated to AMS2700: Treated to rigorous Aerospace Standards to ensure the surface is chemically inert, preventing rust and oxidation even in humid or harsh environments.

• Precision Annealed: Heat-treated to relieve internal stresses, ensuring the part remains dimensionally stable and won't become brittle over thousands of rounds.

• Glass-Blasted Finish: A sleek, non-reflective matte finish that provides a professional look while reducing glare and hiding wear.

Performance Benefits

• Reduced Slide Velocity: The added weight helps manage the "snappiness" of high-velocity rounds, keeping the slide in battery longer for better pressure management.

• Cleaner Suppression: When running a suppressor, the extra mass helps counteract the increased backpressure, reducing "gas-to-face" and keeping the action cleaner.

• Enhanced Reliability: Helps eliminate "bolt bounce," ensuring the slide fully seats the next round for more consistent ignition and feeding.

• Improved Balance: Adds a slight rearward weight bias that many shooters find helps with faster sight recovery and more neutral handling.
