Re: 22 LR AR choice
I have a tac sol upper for a little over three years now and it is way too much fun especially suppressed, any lower will do, the SW is awesome also and a bit lighter.

Re: 22 LR AR choice
I have a couple CMMG uppers and they have been very reliable. I had one of them cut down to 4.5” and it is still very reliable with and without a suppressor.

Anyone know of any reputable places to order these from other than from Nordic directly? On their website every model has been out of stock for weeks.

Re: 22 LR AR choice
the S&W mp 15 22 is great! i had a early model that was picky on ammo and smith and wesson replaced the entire gun and the new one will eat any ammo you give it, the bolt catch and mag release and safety are all in the same place as a regular ar! i put a trigger in it and its my daughters gun and she grew up on it and loved it, i love it too and now she has moved on to the 223 ar and its all the same except the ammo. very good teaching tool and a blast to shoot all day long and only spend 20$ doing it. I bring it every time i go to the range when its hot. i will shoot 5 rounds from my 308 and shoot the M&P while the 308 cools for its next 5 rounds! love it!

Thanks for the replies. I looked at the TAC SOL and Nordic sites and they are out of stock and more expensive that the CMMG. I like the S&W but it is too light; I'd like to replicate the feel of my carbine. Unless some one can tell me a down side to the CMMG I believe I will go that direction. Thanks again.

Re: 22 LR AR choice
i'd go with the CMMG. they have great customer service. i've experienced it first hand. i now have several of their other products. i love my 20" upper from them.

Re: 22 LR AR choice
User "Redtazdog", no doubt. He will make you a custom barrel and match your CMMG bolt to the barrel to essentially get rid of that play which is the root of many malfunctions. I had him build me a 4.5" upper (keeps bulk ammo subsonic for suppressor use) and it is FAR better than any other .22 AR option I've had (Colt dedicated, Spike's .22 upper, 2 CMMG conversions).

CMMG makes a little adapter for this. GREAT for public ranges when they call cold and you need to lock the bolt back. it dropped right in for my CMMG upper, but there's some fitting for my Spike's kit.
