| For a Ruger 10/22 and MP15/22, what would be a great can to utilize for both? Secondarily, would you recommend getting a stamp and having the barrel on each cut? |

Quoted: Ya, cmmg .22 upper. I would configure it to be the general shape and size of my primary rifle. YMMV Quoted: Quoted: Sparrow. Yes. Perferably I'd get a dedicated .22 upper over the S&W, but not a bad option. Ya, cmmg .22 upper. I would configure it to be the general shape and size of my primary rifle. YMMV |

Quoted: Spectre II, especially if you're going to cut them down. My ~16.5" M&P 15-22 barrel now fits conveniently in my hand. http://i751.photobucket.com/albums/xx151/thegreghorton/Mobile%20Uploads/7952205D-61BA-409B-ACB0-4313622C311F_zps0loy5baz.jpg Not sure you'd cut a 10/22 barrel that short, but the 15-22 now has a barrel about the same length as my M&P 22. Spectre has less FRP in a pistol length barrel. |

Quoted:
BW, did you just cut down the original handguard or get a new one? Cut mine down...cause it was free. I figured I could see how I liked it, and would have the option to change it out later. Have to buy the adapter and new handguard. All I needed was a saw and a piece of sandpaper. There are a couple pics here. |

Would any modifications be required for my current lower? Quoted:

Check out the 4" AR15-22LR upper from TACCOM; silly quiet with bulk ammo using a can. (And it is soooo... cute!)
Or a CMMG with a 4" - 4.5" barrel. It will work well on a regular AR lower. You will need either a SBR stamp or reconvert it back into pistol mode to be legal for a barrel under 16" long. You may need to buy an extra hammer and modify it to a flat hammer style and use a lighter hammer spring (JP yellow spring?) to get .22LR to run right in the AR or not. Black Dog AR-22 magazines with the steel lips (check out a site sponsor with 44 in the name) I'm trying to decide whether to use the carbine or mid-length YHM lightweight rail/handguard; and they make a pistol length lightweight handguard also. The 10/22 I would just buy one with a threaded 16" barrel or buy something like the Thompson Machine 10/22 integral suppressed barrel. Spectre II Sparrow Essence Kodiak TL Element2 (better for short barrels-pistol length) who else am I forgetting; lot of good .22 cans out there |
