M&P 15-22 Picture Thread

[mr2r6]

This is my first post this is a great site and thanks for all the info. I set out originally to buy an M&P 15-22, but ended up with a Mossberg tactical 22. The Mossberg was a great gun, super accurate and reliable unlike most reviews. Shot well over 1000 rounds through it will only 2-3 miss feeds. I ended up selling it for more than I had in it too. I will say that the M&P is a better built gun. The Mossberg magazine was really wobbly and breaking it down to clean was a pain in the butt. The M&P I purchased had the full 10 round magazine. I live in SC so I took a long screw driver and hammer and knocked out the limit pin. Now the magazine holds 25 rounds. The only mod as of now is Knights grips. I plan on mounting my Olight m21, foregrip, scope, laser and getting a few extra magazines and maybe a sling.

Here is my new toy. The Black MOE Edition



So Far I have mounted the Red Dot I had in the Safe, Ordered 3 more Mags from 44mag.com, ordered a tactical bag from Midway and did the Crayon trick. Trying to sneek away today after a meeting to put some rounds through it.

What are yall using to wipe away the extra paint/crayon after doing the color fill?

I plan on using paint, but need to know what is safe for the polymer.

Thanks.

Crayon - a rag with WD-40 on it.
Acrylic paint - rag damp with water.
Oil based paint - rag with paint thinner.

Personally, I would NOT use oil-based paint on the 15-22. I originally used crayon, but then removed it and used acrylic hobby paint.

Just to keep the pic thread flowing, I added a magpul 1/4" cheek riser, and a tacticool22 ambi charging handle, also I painted it semi flat black so it color matched better, and made a few cuts in it for better grip....

I think next week I'm gonna add the magpul .70 butt pad, this effin toy is a money pit....lol... But I really wanna get the Sightmark Ultra shot reflex sight....

Be gentle she's shy. I have had this gem for over a year now. I know I'd get an AR-15 in the future and wanted to use this as a test platform and everyone that shoots needs a .22lr.

nail polish, any color of the rainbow you want, remove with non acetone remover, perfect.

Dude i've got a Schmidt and Bender 1.1-4x24 PMIII Short Dot on a LaRue QD mount on mine right now!!!! $2600 worth of glass and mount! it is just on there for S&G's until an older EOtech 512 comes in for it. The S&B is for a dedicated 6.8 that i'm working on so i had to have some place to put it! makes the gun about 5 more pounds heavier!

New to the forum as well as the m&p15-22. Just purchased today. 3 xtra mags and a redfield revolution 3-9x40 scope. Waiting on a burris pepr mount for it. Bought so much the pawnshop guy threw me a truglo red/green dot to play around with. Love the weapon so far. Have yet to shoot it, but i cant wait. I also havea grip/bipod combo on the way as well. Whatcha think? Glad to be here on the forum, thanks, Nick.

Paint Job in Progress.. 75% complete

I'll post up another pic once I mount some other parts. I also have 1 more pass to do in a medium brown with another stencil.

Ok, I said I was gonna wait till next week, but I couldnt wait.... So I got the magpul .70 butt pad, rsa, ms3 sling, battle arms ambi safety selector, and utg bipod at the Middletown gun show today....

Also, I just thru the safety selector in there..... It is a bit smaller tho, but if your not constantly switching it, I don't see any problem with it being so close..... I did polish the backings of the levers with fitz, just incase when I do move them, at least they will slide easier on the polymer....

I guess let me know what you people think?,

As you can see I use my Flickr account, so once I upload the pics from my phone to the computer, I goto Flickr, see which pics I wanna show , click on it, then above it it says share, click that, And I use the bbcode, choose what size you want the pic to be seen, then copy and paste it here....

Paint fun. Thanks Krylon!

I'm super happy with how it turned out. So long as you prep well, it's hard to mess up.
