A .22LR AR-15 platform that is reliable is a novel idea ! Tired of magazine problems and "one flavor" ammo AR conversions I would gladly dish out $500 for something that would work with whatever bulk pack ammo I can happen to find. Yet a classic K-22 or .41 Mag with the H-Hole on the side would just not seem quite right. Hide it unde the grip, get rid of it and provide a cable lock like others do or I'll just pass and buy a vintage version when the opportunity arises.

It was love at first press... much better then the Colt IMO. As soon as they release them with a threaded barrel I'll pick one up. The only complaint I have with the new S&W and Colt AR-22s is that the magizines are proprietary. Neither will work in the others gun and I know the Colt won't work with a Colt .22 Conversion (WTF is up with THAT!?!). The SW Mag may work but I haven't had a chance to try it out. If I can get my AR and the .22 conversion back from Tiffany I'll check it out. Mas,
