Looking at building a 22LR "Commando" style pistol with A2 upper, FSB, and green triangle handguards (or maybe a magpul handguard or chopped rail around the FSB)

Opinion on Model 1 Sales 11.5" barrel?

Are these compatible with most 22 bolts and mags?

Don't know about that upper, but do know that I have read a lot of negative stuff about Model 1 sales.  Some positive as well so it may be a crap shoot.

10-4, seems to be the consensus. I'm converting an upper and other parts I already have into a .22 LR since I've got quite a bit of it on hand.

The barrels don't get a good rap... leaning towards a 16" CMMG kit, and having it shortened in the future into a "commando" type build I guess

I called and asked if they had any .22 upper in stock and they said they were completely sold out (surprise.) - not sure about barrels though.

That's what I did for my second .22

FWIW, several years ago when Spike's Tactical first announced bringing their ST-22 uppers to market,  I pre-orderd one.

The M4 style 22LR barrel that came installed on that upper is marked "M1S 22LR".

It's plenty accurate and still running strong.

I would not recommend them.

I'd go CMMG/RTB (same parts). Keep an eye on the EE, there was a 16" fairly recently (now sold).

Just had a bad dealing with them. Paid 155 for an upper and they send me an email saying it's now 215 if I want it. Moving on to others for parts. Right to bear arms sells rebranded cmmg 22lr barrel and bcgs
