Busy week, dedicated .22LR complete.

[ac130usnsr]

Dedicated .22LR. Most of the parts were crap I had around from early poor buying decisions or things taken off friends guns when I fixed/upgraded them.

Needless to say, I used a lot of stuff on this build that I wouldn't even consider using on anything other than a .22LR.

*Bought new for this build, all others out of the junk box.

- CMMG .22LR Barrel*
- Armalite Clamp-on FSB*
- CMMG .22LR Bolt*
- PSA Upper Receiver*
- DPMS Stripped Lower Receiver
- DPMS LPK
- DPMS Charging Handle
- Unknown Delta Ring Pack, Barrel Nut and End Cap
- Commercial Receiver Extension
- Commercial M4 Stock
- Fab Defense Carry Handle
- UTG Pro Rail (U.S. Made)
- No name VFG
- Boonie-Packer Better Mag S&W .22LR Magazine Adapter*

I like the way it came out, it handles well and has the same weight/feel of a 5.56.

The Better Mag adapter is excellent. Mags insert perfectly without having to mess around with them and drop free when released. The function of the bolt catch is the same as a standard AR (just a shorter pull on the charging handle).

A quick trip to a sand pit near the house proved successful, only 2 mags, but function was perfect with no FTF/FTE.

Looking forward to getting lots of cheap trigger time.

I really like that mag well adapter, I had no idea it existed. I really like the M&P magazines, the ability to compress the follower from the sides is a huge plus for me.

I went ahead and ordered one and two of the magazines. Hopefully it does not suck.

Good looking 22lr sir!

I use the armalite clamp on FSB and my only gripe is how the finish is completely different from the CMMG barrel's finish. Other than that it's great and does what its supposed to.

I've got a friend looking at a dedicated .22 AR - gonna have to show him this and tell him to check out that Better Mag.
