It looks and even mostly feels like the 9mm Scorpion. The rimfire Scorpion takes after the rifle-length carbine design of the Scorpion. It is a full-sized rifle and has the look and controls of a standard rifle.<\/p>\n<p>The rimfire Scorpion is a bit lighter than the 9mm version. Both are blowback-operated firearms, and the .22 LR needs a much lighter bolt than the 9mm model.
