Besides the Magpul stuff, anybody notice anything different?

Your hand guard is shortened.

haha, yep. Not too much to it, I think it looks better too. I'd take it just a littttttle bit slower with the dremel tool if I had it to do over. I was using the dremel to remove material so I could put the thingy in that goes in the end of the hand rail. But oh well, it looks pretty good. I'm going to get the barrel threaded one day soon so I can put a flash hider on it.

what type of ammo do you have loaded? it looks like black casings

It's Centurion ammo. And that's the bullet on them, the casings are brass.

It is a mighty fine looking rifle. The muzzle is plain and your front sight is backwards. There is an adapter for the muzzle. The shorter quad rail does look nice. Way to start a trend vitamin3d.
The two tone looks a lot better than I imagined it would.
What is the black thing on the grip?

 

[evoduer]

Your front site is also backwards.

Haha yeah my front sight is backwards, I didn't even realize that. I like the two tone as well. That black piece on the grip is where a pressure switch for a laser goes

 

[tacticool22]

I saw the backwards sight right away because I did that myself, once. There is even phtographic evidence. Oh well, to err is human

UTG 5 pos. vertical grip, carry handle and mount-nc star 4x scope, bike tubes over the pistol grip and vertical grip. If you can cut them cleanly, and find the right size, a bike tube works perfectly for some applications. Funny thing, the tactical team guys around here have been asking me about getting tubes now for the grips on their carbines.

 

[fanocool]

"Bike Tubes" as in Bicycle tire inner tubes? Do tell more please

Also more about the carry handle !

Also meant to say I love this thread but I forgot

My two favorite rimfires

Heres a few shots of my favorite rimfires! Actually the walther is considerably more stealthy when suppressed! only a small click! even though all you hear from either is the action cycling!!

Just got it yesterday.
Vortex Strike Fire
Magpul BUIS
UTG Covers
UTG Fore Grip

Serial #: DTM****
Blue Star Stamp

Wanting to do the trigger mod, but think I will put 1k rounds through it first. I'm worried about having to warranty it.

Found out quickly astigmatism and red dots don't mix. It's not the optic. Hopefully I can use it, if not I might have a good deal on a brand new Vortex.

Will be one to two weeks before I can shoot it, God permitting. Will post a detailed range report.

Well I have had mine for a while, searched through this thread just now and realized that I did not post a picture!

I finally got mine to fire without any FTE. When I first got the rifle it would jam on nearly every shot I took, especially with CCI Mini Mags.

I took it out today after tweaking the ejector and no problems whatsoever!!!

I was using the iron peep sights, I was able to hit a 2" diameter swinging target from 25 yards out 95% of the time!

Extremely accurate and I'm glad I did not pay extra for those crappy Colt imported rifles.

I wanted to leave it more stock than anything. Instead of getting some ladders/rail covers I decided to go with a little nub for a front grip. Smallest one I could find over at Brownells.

It's hollow so I loaded it up with .22lr bullets for those "just in case" moments.

Stage 4 almost complete.

UTG Carry Handle Version 6 matches the rifle's finish well. Rear sight aperture is identical height to S&W factory rear sight. Colt 4x scope clone fits perfect and no movement. See-thru works great for holosight.

What brand is your carry handle? Looks great!

The S&W 15-22 is the first firearm I have ever purchased. It was a Xmas gift to me and my boys. My dad used to take me out target shooting and I really enjoyed it so I wanted to do the same for my kids.
We had a blast this weekend. We went through about 500 rounds and several unsuspecting cans of soda!

sprocketeer has discovered what makes life really worth while. I enjoyed the photos of your boys very much. My daughter and I used to go out shooting just like that when she was young. Maybe it is time to do it again. Thanks for the inspiration.

first day at range

Only mod so far is Tasco Pro-Point red dot scope. Looking for hand rail covers to soften up feel.

Looks like good family fun.
