Given the choice between "HK" Umarex and S&W, S&W 15-22 all the way.
S&W 15-22 has a proprietary lower, uses S&W mags only; 10 or 25rd. Plinker Tactical made 35rd mags & BlackDog makes a 50rd drum.
IMO the S&W 15-22 is the most reliable 22LR on the market. It takes most standard AR triggers (Geissele, Larue, Hiperfire all work), has LRBHO, Radian makes safety/CH, regular AR furniture fits. This opinion is based on 9 years coaching a junior SASP Team and using 10 S&W 15-22s, now 10 Tippman M4-22s, shooting 60,000rds of 22lr a year.
For those who say the 15-22 feels like a cheap plastic toy gun, yes... but if you're teaching kids to shoot, the light weight is a huge bonus. And if you look at most Steel Challenge, Rimfire Challenge adult competitors, they're paying $$$ to get rimfires under 4#, so the light weight is a bonus there too.
If you want the most accurate 22LR AR upper, get a JP. If you want a matched-weight training clone, get an AR22 upper. But for $399 brand new, the 15-22 is a great deal.
