Remember to list your optic and mount used with the pic, otherwise it's another 15-22 pic thread.

Now using this...like this better...
Which riser are you using? And is it able o use the irons as well? Or is that a carry handle?

I'm currently running a Barska holographic sight on my 15-22. I chose to go with the holo type red-dot so I can get a better overall field of view. It's mounted on the top rail with no adapters or risers. Once I got it dialed it, it's pretty accurate for the price. I just started shooting a rifle after a couple of months with pistols, so I'm working on my technique. At 75 feet, I can manage 2" groups without a rest or bipod.
Picked it up at Big 5. Tag said $54.99, but it was on sale in addition to an e-mail couple. Before tax, it was $34.99.

MP15-22 forum; optics & info pertinent to the thread:
ACOG TA44SR-10 1.5X Red Circle/dot. ADM AD B2 mount. Used LaRue LT-105 mounts initially but didn't like single pressure point on the plastic upper (they're fine for metal uppers). Liked the AD B2 mounts wider clamp style better for the MP22's.
ACOG TA33G-H 3X Green Horseshoe. ADM AD B2 mount.

Where can we get more specs on the gun?

Nikon P-22 2X7-32
Nikon P-series Mount
UTG .5" low rise riser
The riser is necessary not just because I like the little extra height. It is my QD system. The Nikon mount slides onto the rail. With the riser I can keep my MBUS mounted at all times and remove scope to go iron.
Note: with so many of us removing scopes and hoping to return to zero on a regular basis remember there is play in the rail slots. Proper technique calls for pushing the scope forward to take up this play. Even though .22 is low recoil that lessens the chance of recoil slippage. I prefer the large thumb screws over QD friction levers. They just feel better to me because I have more control over the pressure and placement. Yes, picky, but that's just me.
Gopher Slayer. I hate your pictures. I lived at 7000ft in the Rockies for 12 years. Now I'm back in the big city. Every time I see your rifle on that fence with Gods country in the background it KILLS me!!!

Honestly? Because you can.
The $200 isn't going to break anyone's bank, and it is fun. The gun is a little lighter and points a little better.
If you want to do things like put a real suppressor on it then you don't have 16" +4" of suppressor.
If you've got a .223 suppressor for it you can use it on other rifles, or if you get a .22 suppressor you can use it on other .22's.
EVERYONE who has a M&P 15/22 has a 16" one. If you make it shorter you can make it personal.
My personal reason is I use my 15/22 in 3 gun matches. It's easier and quicker to navigate corners and doorways with the shorter rifle than the longer one. If I had a .223 AR I'd also chop it.
You also don't lose THAT much velocity with the shorter barrels. You are generally going to want to keep it inside of 100 yards anyway, something you can do quite well with a .22 pistol with 4" barrels. Leaving it at 10"+ means you can easily do that.
Someone posted a chart a while ago about the velocities of .22 from different barrel lengths and the 10"+ were all in the same ballpark anyway.
