Went to a friends farm to go look for feral pigs but we were told just before we left that there weren't any on the farm. Fortunately the steel and 15-22, along with a bucket of ammo had been lobbed into the car as well, cos shooting is fun. The two 8y/os got to lob some lead as well but the...

I'm busy with our (NON USA) process of cutting the barrel on my 15-22. I want to make it a Mk18 style gun so looking at 10.5-10.3" length. Is there any drawback to doing this? The idea is to get my suppressor as close to flush mounted with the hand guard as possible.

I'm lusting after the new handguard. Our exchange rate (nominally R15: $1) and the import costs (roughly 24:1 sometimes as high as 40:1) and our licensing system (have to show need, limited numbers allowed, 6 month waiting) means I'm more or less stuck with my original 15-22. However I have...

We can get Remington Cyclones locally at a really good price, how do 15-22's like them in general? Mine loves Rem sub sonics. Should I grab some Cyclones or give them a miss? KBK

So I went to the range today with a selection of .22 brands, weights, velocity and styles. The gun shot OK and obviously like some brands more than others. It likes HV and sub sonics the most. Hmmm. It also likes running suppressed more than not. I've never been a good shot, give me a shotgun...

Took the family shooting today. 15-22 with NC Star SRT scope, Remington Sub Sonic and Geco Std velocity, NC Star bipod, 27 degrees Celsius, hardly any wind. UPG-16 grip and SOCOM style Airsoft stock, 45 degrees offset irons, but not used. Home made (legal) suppressor, washer/spacer with 3...

I purchased the 15-22 as a cheaper alternative to center fire rifles. We didn't quite go through the madness you guys did with the ammo supply recently, but then we don't have your restrictions either, I've purchased almost 4500 rounds of Norinco 7.62x39mm in the last month. You guys can't even...

I've had issues with the 6x scope and the Aimpoint I've got. I can't get the dot/cross hairs and the holes to meet. On paper at 25m I'm about 6" low on POI, and even if I max out the elevation on either the scope or the Aimpoint I can't get any closer than that. This may be a really Duh...

Call Tacticool.22, mainly. I got a GoPro Hero 3 for my birthday from my DW, and I want to run it on my 15/22 for some 3-gun footage. I'll be adding to my camera collection over some time so I have a couple of points of view. I was wondering how gun footage will look, so I bubbah'd a picitiny...

I've recently put a genuine Aimpoint in a La Rue riser on my 15-22 but have not had time to zero it. Took it to the range today to do so. After 3 groups of 3 I was on target at 25m and settled in to punch the center out of the zero target. There were some kids around, so with their father's...

I went looking for all the threads on here a while ago asking about putting an A2 style stock on the 15-22 and everyone saying it can't be done, but I could not find them. Things are about to get easier. Magpul fixed stock for carbine length buffer tubes. Not released yet, and not an A2...

I got hauled over the coals by a "senior range officer" at my local club today. Rocked up to shoot at the 75m "Rifles and shotgun" range to find they'd set up an IDPA clinic for swingers and turners. The 150m rifle range is a no go because they don't like young punks with their semi auto rifles...

I've moved some goodies around and want to try a "fixed" front sight now. The problem is my 10 o'clock light gets in the way of the thumb screw on the original sight. Will there be any issues if I put it on backwards with the thumb screw on the right side of the gun? KBK

In this country we have to go through a process very much like the SBR or suppressor process in the 'States just to own the firearm. Once we do we can suppress and SBR it without any hinderance. So I applied for my paperwork two months ago, being told the average wait is around 1 month. I went...

I'm going to leave it to the professionals to get the job done properly, but I want to make sure everything gets done quickly and efficiently with as little time wasted as possible. If you either thread the standard 16" barrel, or chop it down to around 11.5" (done in accordance to all...

We have a division for .22 LR in our shooting competitions. One problem is running a .22 LR rifle with shot timers. There isn't always enough noise to trip the timer. Anyone have any suggestions as to what can be done to enhance the report of a .22? KBK
