I really like the M&P 15-22 mags, I also use the ARCatch22 on each magazine which makes them seat very well. Highly recommend.
I used to have a McFadden Ultimate Cliploader that worked good ((sold it with some other 22 I used to have (no clue what though)). Didn't know about the McFadden Lightnin' Grip Loader, for sure getting that next month or in April (+ 3 adapters I'll need for it). Emailed McFadden to make sure that their M&P 15-22 mags work with the ARCatch22 adapters on each magazine or not. Either way still getting it for my regular AR22 mags and my M&P22 Compact mags.
I have really liked CMMG parts and as a company they stood behind their 22lr conversion when a part broke on my previous build (part was 5-7 years old or so). They were very nice to work with, so I look to them first for barrels... then decide from there.
I first started doing Paintball in 1992 or so and Tippman was a good bet to go with back then. Good to hear they also make AR22's.
Well and that 9mm Gatling Gun !!
