Is there any other life after a 15-22 purchase? Actually I think this gun may be the male Barbie doll. Its not in the firearm, its in the accessories. Can you imagine a 15-22 with no quad rail? No place to bolt on a do dad? Horrors!! Anybody have any fresh websites for tactical stuff? I need a laser fix.

It's a big boy's toy! You can leave the weapon alone or have fun changing, adding, coloring, and painting to your hearts content. Cheaper to shoot then it bigger brother. I have mine set up to match my RRA Elite Operator.
Love to watch the jaws drop when the 15-22 out shoots the 5.56 guns in a tactical shoot! The laughter stops and then the "can I try your 22" starts.
Aim small,

Believe it or not I like the 15--22 just the way it came from the factory only thing I did is put a fore-end handle on it and a scope.

Hmmm, boys there. You have to touch to the soul of mp15-22. Recently I worked for my friends gun and assembled adjustable Jard, polished firing pin, polished recoil spring rod, filed extractor to only touch case (not press).........and wow, it worked fine in -15C , even with slow velocity ammo. Jard hammer spring is not so strong than original, so had a good reason to touch my gun and friends gun.
Wonderfull if gun dont work.....having then a good reason to fix it......

Mine is NOT a male barbie doll. It's a GI JOE( that fires real boolits!) for those of us over 50, but not grown up yet.

The wife's scrapbooking obsession is infinitely greater (in cost and scope) than my gun obsession. . .

Amen to that. I at least get to make some money from this obsession. Thanks to everybody who has supported this business venture. I can not do it without you.

Barbie Doll
I'm sorry, had to many daughters. Certainly, it's a GI Joe. I meant GI Joe. No gender issues here. GI Joe forever.

Now that I think about it, the amount my parents spent on dinosaurs, GI Joes, TransFormers, He-Man, and the like probably well exceeds the amount I've paid for firearms.
Thanks, Ma & Pa.
