so I did it, i bought it...now i have to mod it!! lol guys i would like some advice. I have the base mp 15/22 not moe version. I would like it to have the colors like the photo bellow. (grabbed from photo section in this forum) where should i buy those parts? stock, grip, etc..



also can is that a silencer? will that fit my standard 15/22 or will i need to have my barrel threaded?
I would also like to put a scope for target practice from 25-50 yards. what scope do you guys recommend?

thanks in advance, supper newbie here

You can find all the mods online at places like Primary Arms, Midway, CDNN, ect. I prefer a red dot on my 15-22 for shooting those distances. I have a Vortex Strikefire ll. The sky the limit on how you can trick it out. For the silencer there's steps in order to obtain one. Forms, $200 tax stamp, and a waiting period assuming your state allows them there. For the silencer treading on I'll let someone else with more experience answer that question. Welcome to the madness of the 15-22.

I suggest you take a little time & read, at a minimum, the current threads. You then will better understand what you have purchased & then can ask more directed questions. There is a wealth of info here.

Yes, the 15-22 can accept a suppressor and the barrel must be threaded (some of the current threads discuss this). A fake suppressor can be clamped on an unthreaded barrel.

Hi and welcome to the madness.

Most the parts you seem to like above look like magpul gear so should be easy enough to source if you look in US.

The "Can" looks to be a barrel shroud not a Sound moderator.

Looks like a kineti-tech though I could be wrong on that.

Hope that was useful.

Rob.

The color is called 'flat dark earth', or FDE. Search 'fde pistol grip', 'fde mil spec stock' and 'fde rail covers'.

If your barrel does NOT have a flash suppressor, then your barrel is NOT THREADED. A 22lr suppressor needs to have a threaded barrel.

If your barrel needs threading, Adco is recommended.

As bishop stated, getting a suppressor is not hard, but there are legal vagaries associated, along with a waiting period. Search 'NFA <your state>' for more information. There are also 'fake suppressors' that will give you the look without the suppression.

Lastly, if you DO have a flash hider, you will need to remove it to put the suppressor on. Removal of the flash hider requires that the BARREL be clamped, NOT the quad rail or any other portion of the gun! You will cause irreparable damage to your firearm if you do NOT clamp the barrel.

Awesome, thanks for the info guys.

You will find a wealth of stuff fits in the 15-22 and being stateside, it should come pretty cheap...not like here in the UK, as with everything beware of cheap stuff...it is cheap for a reason, that's not to say a bargain cannot be had, but when I got a 'trijicon rmr' mini red dot from china for £30, I didn't expect it to be anything like the $500 version, which it isn't, but it is not a primary optic and can hit a tin can at 50 yards so im not complaining.

The saying on here goes, 'buy cheap pay twice!' and it is one to adhere to. Although I think my 'evil black rifle' should stay that way I don't have any other colour, other than the tacticrayola, but I have heard that buying FDE equipment from various brands can give a slight mismatch in the actual colours, so if you have even slight OCD about that kind of thing, probably best to buy the same brand FDE or ask those who have tricked theirs out in FDE for advice.

Welcome to your new addiction.....I have said it before and I will say it again....the best addition I have made...has to be the BAD lever (or SBR) for me it is the one mod that really improves the function of the gun.

Have fun

The stock, grip and rail covers appear to be Magpul made in FDE...don't know what optic that is...

I've always suggested shooting the snot out of a new gun before you modify it. That way you have some idea exactly what you want with spending money on stuff that you will end up removing later.

I think the thing i like the most is the shroud, so I went and bought the kenitech shroud my next part is probably the scope. So i've shot a gun a lot and the iron sight serves its purpose but i think i would like to shoot this gun with a scope at 25-100 yards. I read into the scopes on these guns and a lot of people are suggesting the simmons 3-9x/32 which is affordable. I don't mind the simmons scope but is there a similar scope in quality and price that isn't as large and has more similar lines with the gun? any suggestions would be appreciated.

Search the forum, there is a lot of info here. You can also check Amazon and Ebay for items also. Extra magazines and ammo. Us Californians cannot have supressors.
