new guy
Good evening everyone. Picked up my 15-22 2 weekends ago,was on sale and got my ladies permission by buying her a pink walther p22. So far I have put 250 rounds through it and I am impressed. been lurking around looking for info since its my first ar frame. seems like you all are a good bunch with lots of knowledge to share (found some goods threads and put them to use already) first mods below and i know there are plenty more to come.
Tacticrayola
Houge pistol grip & Mako magwell grip
I spent ~30min removing material from the Mako to get it to fit perfectly, i knew i was going to have to when purchased. feels good does not interfere with the magazine at all.

Nice job. I bet you were a little nervous when removing material. Overall it looks good

thanks! removing material wasn't that bad. there was plenty of material all over so i just took my time and removed small amounts with test fits until it fit.

I thought about doing that to my M&P15-22 but I bought the magpul foregrip instead.

Gunzilla was spot-on with that "addiction" comment! There are some things in life that seem made for constant personalization and improvement: 1911 pistols, Harley motorcycles, leggy blond ladies (as I recall!) and M&P 15-22's are some of the most enjoyable. Of the items I've listed, 15-22's seem to be the least expensive to modify and possibly the hardest to screw up. You've bought one of the best platforms in the firearms world to experiment with; enjoy!

Aren't most hobbies addicting? between the guns, golf, quads, car, and keeping the lady happy i have to budget the fun money and I try to spread it around.shooting is great cause she shoots both her walther p22 and my m&p9c better than i do and doesnt mind spending couple hours at the range informing me of it. at least i got her with this one, for now anyways.
