Im going to build up a 22 soon.
So explain to me how we get away with out a buffer tube on a setup like that?

Also... if you want to run a Sb15 brace... are you free to put on a buffer tube?
Is the bolt and spring different.. whats the scoop!

Thanks

.22LR adapters like the CMMG aren't gas driven, just self-contained blowback. They replace entire AR bolt carrier group.  Can use with dedicated .22lr barrel or with 5.56 barrel, same adapter, just front of it different.

For .22lr barrel:


For 5.56 barrel front end of adapter is changed to this:

Nothing has ever been ruled unlawful on the ass end of a pistol except a stock. You don't even need buffer/spring in the tube.

I assume OP is using a threaded plug that has QD attachment in the buffer tube channel on that lower, he can elaborate. Nifty little heater there btw, k5hep!

OS explained it well - that is a Spile's receiver plug with a QD sling swivel... As for the buffer tube it is not needed on a blowback 22lr AR. You could use one if you wanted to use a Sig brace...
