My son wants a AR22. What is the general thoughts on this rifle. Does it cycle good? I don’t know anything about these as I have never owned any. Is one brand better than another?
Is it Ammo specific or will it cycle most anything?Buy an M&P 15-22 and be done with it.
Would you buy it again knowing what you know nowIt’s a .22. It’s a crapshoot, like any other .22.
My M&P 15-22 doesn’t care for Mini-Mags. My buddy’s loves ‘em.
Seconded.Buy an M&P 15-22 and be done with it.
Pretty much. S&W says stay away from thunderbolt, so of course I had to try it. They're right, it sucked. So there are ammo's it won't care for, but it's not a prevalent thing.Is it Ammo specific or will it cycle most anything?
Yes. It's a great little gun and a favorite with all ages. Perfect for training newbies on black rifles.Would you buy it again knowing what you know now
Agreed, LGS has a couple FA posties that run very well, mags are slick too.If you can find one ... and it is worth the search ... a Tippmann M4-22. They have an aluminum upper and lower not polymer so they have a real feel of a centerfire rifle and their components are 95% interchangeable with centerfires.
and wait for the recall that is coming. That boltface issue is gonna have to be addressed.Buy an M&P 15-22 and be done with it.
