The transformation of my M&P 15-22

Looks awesome.

I put a CTR on mine, and I liked the overall look. The one thing that I didn't like..... When collapsed, the CTR (all) does not match the profile of the lower. It hangs way down to the profile of the tear-drop ring on an AR15. The S&W factory stock has a profile that matches it's one piece lower/tube design.

Before & After. :D

I sneaked out and went to the range this evening.

The 15-22 was throughly cleaned and ready since last week. I brought 3 mags of Federal Lightnings, 3 mags of Mini Mags, and 50 rounds of Rem. Thunderbolt. ;)

The rifle performed flawlessly. :D

Only one mulfunction, a Thunderbolt stuck/crushed vertically in the magazine lips and failed to get in the chamber. :p
Other than that, no problem of any kind.

The Walmart's Lightnings were surprisingly good. Not as good as the Mini Mag, but definitely get along well with my 15-22, much better than the Golden Bullet. :p
Thunderbolts were ok as well, but they weren't very consistant. Some of rounds sounded very weak. I don't have much confident using it. So no more Thunderbolt for the next time.

So, I have a conclusion that I will be using only CCI's Mini Mags, CCI's Stingers and Federal Lightning ammos for my 15-22 from now on.

I really had a blast tonight and the rifle's really fun to shoot. Can't wait until the next time. :D
 
After reading the posts about failures, I too am sticking with either Federal bulk or CCI. I will probably shoot the CCI mostly because even though they cost more, they are still substantially cheaper than any brand I shoot through my other AR-15 in .223 cal.
 
I had never seen those index clips before. Way toooo cool for so many applications. Thanks for posting.
 
A new range report from this morning shoot.....

250 rds of Mini-mags, rapid fire and non rapid fire, "zero" malfunction. :cool:

Me, my friend and my son, we all had a blast today. Especially my friend he's gonna get one. ;)

Always good to hear zero malfunctions, regardless of which weapon (s) used.

Maybe S&W should come up with a referral program on their products. A free mag or two per referral that makes a firearm purchase would work for me. :D
 
Looks good. Man, that's alot of $$ invested in a .22.

And they told the buyers of the S&W Model 41 the exact same thing. And a few years down the road they more than tripled in price. Buy it cuz they are cool and you like them. If you are looking for a bargain buy a 10/22.
