    Spikes .22LR Conversion?

    Been looking at getting one of those Spikes Tactical Uppers.
    My question whether it is possible to effectively suppress this rifle with the 16" barrel?

    We have built several of them and everyone of them we had to hand file (blend) the feed ramp and polish the chamber in order to get them to run well.

    Yep. I have a buddy who has one. He finally got it running like a champ, but it took some effort.

    Interesting you say that because I was wondering if ST was doing all the work we were doing in order to make them run well. Apparently they are not.
