Good points about cleaning and looking at the extractor. You may want to get new mags, if the ones that came with it are old, as they do wear. I put a Volquartsen extractor and firing pin (It is beefier), and since I use it in competition, I run CCI MINI Mags, usually the high velocity ones...

I had 6 of the 25 rounders, shooting about 500 rounds a month for Steel Challenge. Used CCI MiniMags only. over time, I was having some of the mags where the follower would get stuck about half way. Read (I don't recall where) that they can warp at times. I switched to 10 rounders, which are...

Mostly good experience with them. Prices are very good. Delivery time is reasonable (not as good as Amazon, but not real slow). Only negative experience I had, which was partly my fault is that I ordered a Holoson optic, when they were offering 15% off promotion. By the time it arrived, the...

Nice! I've seen similar kinds of blocks that people have used on other 22LR rifles. With the mod I did, mine is fine now, but this may be something to ask for as a gift for XMas.

I have a Liberty Safe with electronic lock and chanced the combo on purchase. I don't recall Liberty mentioning any master code (if they do have one, it should be something that you can disable). However, the big question I have is "how did the government know he had a safe (or a Liberty Safe...

I use my exclusively for Steel Challenge matches, and I clean it after every match (about 200-300 rounds). I run a bore snake through about three times and then clean the bolt and area around the breechface. I use CCI mini-mags (high velocity), which are very reliable.

I've used the one that came with it for quite a while with no problems. I bought another chamber flag that has a ring and 3/4"x3" or so red flag on it, so that it was easy to grab. However, the nylon part that fits into the chamber is almost 1/2" wide and almost the same width as the opening...

I was at a Steel Challenge match this weekend, doing very well with my transition to using optics this year. Well, at the end of my third stage, I inserted my chamber flag (a pretty large one made of nylon - fills the width of the opening), and released the bolt. I usually try to hold the...

Thanks for the link!

Anyone know where I can find a parts diagram for the M&P 15-22 rifle? I'd like to have something on hand, in case I do any disassembly/reassembly and end up with a spare part that I forgot to install. :) Also, I'd like to build up a kit of spare parts, in case I get a failure during...

Got one in November, and absolutely love it. I use it for Steel Challenge competitions and have been really enjoying it. No mods yet, just running with iron sights.

I had some issues with ammo (even high velocity), so I try to use CCI Mini-mags for matches, and then practice with other brands. I'm hoping it will break in and eat anything, like some other folks have seen. Finding mags are hit or miss. I have had luck with JoeBobOutfitters.com, which seem to...

That really great for you. It’s nice when one has confidence on the ammo. Did you have that performance from the get go, after a break in, or after the trigger swap?

It doesn’t really “bother” me, but is noticeable, when I try to hold and then release until reset. Different than two others I have tried. CCI mini mags work well so far - trying to use those for matches. Had a few double feeds and stove pipes with CCI standard velocity per 100 or so. Aguila...

Great info!
