Sorry, but to consider it for anything other than small game and paper punching is ignorant by my view.
This is the danger that the 15-22 and like guns has brought to the public. Just because it *looks* like an assault rifle doesn't mean anything, but it seems people are getting mixed impressions and ideas. The 15-22 is not an AR. It is a semi-automatic .22lr rifle and while different in form, in function it is not different than a 10/22 or a 702 plinkster. Are people having these conversations about the mossberg plinkster? Thinking of using it to end a hostage crisis? certainly not. But because the 15-22 looks the way it does, by all means lets consider it (sarcasm).
Get real people. The 15-22 is a plinking rifle, and if outfitted right can work as a hunting rifle for small game/vermin, or as a tactical trainer - key word being *trainer*, NOT *tactical*.
This is a stupid conversation, and I'm out.
