This... is my BOOMstick! The 12-gauge double-barreled Remington. S-Mart's top of the line. You can find this in the sporting goods department. That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Retails for about $109.95. It's got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel... and a hair trigger. That's right. Shop smart. Shop S-Mart.
YES! That's what I am talking about haha!

Only native americans and indigenous aboriginal tribes should be allowed to use such a term.
Well neither the 15 or the 15-22 are ar's anymore according to the S & W website they are Modern Sporting Rifles a less scary title to the uninformed. So we have the MSR M & P 15-22 but I just call her sweet thang

when speaking to people that know what it is, i refer to it as my 15-22
when speaking to someone that may not know what it is i say its an AR-15 style 22.

Just to pick a nit ...
S&W's designation is 15-22 not 15/22.
something/22 is generally used by Ruger.
Yea after I did it I thought about it but got lazy... all fixed now though...
I call it 15-22. Pretty much everyone I know already knows that it's a Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22. It just how if you say 10/22 everyone already assumes a Ruger 10/22.
I wouldn't call it an AR15-22 because to me that is a standard AR15 with a either a dedicated 22LR barreled upper or one with a 22LR conversion kit.

On this forum, 15-22, because we all know what we are referring to.
To anyone else, it's a Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22 - exactly what S&W says it is.

That is what my Saiga Predator AK-47 was designated as when it was imported. A "Sporting Rifle!"

They are wrong, considering there's no such animal as an AR15-22. I started to use another word, but that one will suffice.

There are also some who want to buy clips for their "AR15-22"...
Personally, I think it's important to use the correct firearms terminology when discussing firearms, on a firearms forum (don't type "extractor" when you mean "ejector", etc.)
You wouldn't post on a car enthusiast website about a "supercharger" when you meant a "turbocharger", would you?

I think too many people get hung up on what it is or termonology, if you have explain do so and leave it at that.
