Have two CMMG uppers with stainless Bolts. Both are 100% dependable and trouble free. One does have a Taccom ULW barrel on it, the other the standard CMMG barrel. Like the Taccom barrel alot.
Though I have no Taccom stuff other than their barrel,pressure plug and firing pin, I prefer the stainless bolts from CMMG. Just prefer the stainless over a coated bolt assembly. I think you would be happy with the CMMG. |

I went with a Chiappa upper assembly @ ~$200 just to get both a barrel and bolt for future suppressed use. It runs flawlessly, but I did do some polishing and clean up on the bolt before first shooting it. I plan on replacing the upper with a regular stripped one (no forward assist) for a lot less than a specialized stripped upper...

Quoted:
TACCOM is out of their stripped 22RF Upper. I am highly considering the CMMG Mk4, 2LR/Mk9. Is there anything else out there I should consider? My upper build has the following: 1. Beyer 7.5" barrel 2. TACCOM BCG 3. CMMG collar 4. Silencerco Sparrow SS suppressor 5. MI 10.5 handguard Your upper is very similar to mine, with the exception that I have the 4.5" beyer barrel and the CMMG stainless bolt with collar. With my setup, I've never had a problem out of it |

Will uppers with the ejection port dust cover function normally? Will the dust cover pop open when the bolt cycles?

I didn't like the CMMG upper as it is just a standard AR15 upper with a plastic deflector installed on the ejection port. I went with a Sun Devil slicksided upper with no FA or useless brass deflector, but you can install the shorter ejection port door and deflector.

Aero Precision has uppers w/o forward assist. I bought a couple for 22 builds.

If not using a Taccom upper, I just use a mil spec upper.
I like using the forged mil spec because I never know when that .22 might turn into another caliber. I like options

Just my opinion, but I would get just a standard Cerro Forged stripped upper. That's what I run on my 4.5" .22.
Just the ease of finding them, low price, and you can use that upper for any caliber if you want to switch later. Just me tho haha. Plus if you really wanted to, you could have a forward assist adapter. ETA: Quoted:

Just read your post. Looks like we said the same thing hehe. |

Smoking deal for that AIM Anderson upper. I haven't assembled, but they look fine (the 2 I got).

Personally, I wouldn't be able to handle the big void behind the bcg using that Anderson upper. I suppose it's not too bad if you're using a collar?
I like a milspec upper with the CMMG ejection port cover. Slick side does look nice though. |

Just a further note. We removed the CMMG short door and deflector right away when we received them. Have no problems running without the deflector.
As said, I would just buy the lowest priced standard upper receiver you can find. I would have bought one of the aim ones just to have around, but looks like they are gone now. |

What does the CMMG short door and deflector do exactly? Is that specifically for .22LR? |

Ask me, I know. It also, keeps the area behind the bolt sealed off a little better. It is not specifically for the .22LR. It also works great on 9mm uppers. |
