"Slide Fire" on the 15-22?

Aceman,
couldn't agree with you more, full auto fire has its place and that is primarily on the battlefield. I wish you best of luck,it sounds like your close to or retiring from LE, I appreciate that you devoted your life to the great cause of upholding the laws of your state. I only wish there was a way to turn Ca around so that it would be more gun friendly. I have shot a number of matches at the range outside Sacramento but no longer travel over to those matches due to the unfriendly nature of Ca. gun laws. Good luck with your transition, and no offense taken just a friendly debate.
 
10-4 1fly2th, must of been the Best of the West, which Concord PD took first place last year or the year before (getting old can't remember). Yea, done a lot of tactical training and enjoy that very much. May start to get back into competitive shooting, but not sure if I really want to do that. Gonna go back to re-loading 5.56, to help off set the cost of that ammo. Went to the CPD range today to do a full test on my M&P, it shot so well will all sorts of ammo, even the Remington (only 1 FTE). This Mini AR was a blast to shoot. Looking forward to your reviews.. Keepem in the X ring..
 
Slide fire will work on 22lr

The slide fire stock will work. It's true the recoil is a huge factor but I went shooting the other day and a guy at the range had one on his m&p 15 22.

I asked him how he got it to work and he said he put a 2-3lb trigger in it.

It worked flawlessly with a 50rd drum mag. Not a single jam :)
 
There are a couple threads here on it

Slide fire + M&P 15-22 + Timney Trigger = FULL RETARDATION:eek:


:D

Works great... full mag dumps at will........ Funnest toy i have....
 
ok i noticed alot of guys on here saying that the slidefire stock will not work on the 15-22..... WRONG!!!! try it before you speak. i have it mounted on my m&p 15-22 and it works flawlessly! a little polishing on the trigger group, a lighter trigger and hammer spring and boom your good to go. just remember get the trigger pull below 3.5 lbs and youll be fine. 100,000+ rounds a couple triggers and hammers later and still loving it!

thats because the original thread is over a year old. if you read the latest responses, people have talked about them working in more recent discussions.

Years ago I saw a little electric motor thing that went in the trigger guard and all you did was mash a little button and and you had controlled auto fire on any weapon with out stock adapters and such....Wonder what happened to the things?.......For the 3 or 4 hundred dollar slippy slide stocks why not get a smith to convert your shooter to select fire and pay the $200 tax??????

Because it is only legal to buy or possess full auto that was manufactured and registered before 1986. Because of the small # of guns that fall into the legal category a M16 for example goes for between 5 & 6 grand. The good news is the stamp is only $200.

That adaptor did not make anything full auto any more than the SlideFire does or the little crank that's popular on the Ruger 10/22. It was still one trigger pull, one shot. It just did it very fast - exactly like the SlideFire. Why it disappeared, I don't know.

He wanted to know why not just go out and get a full auto and I was addressing the realities $$$$$$$$ of that route.
The slidefire is a bit overpriced for what it is IMHO but compared to owning a real full auto....I guess its a bargain?

I agree with you on that. Something I haven't seen is years was a full-auto .22 LR on the Thompson pattern. It was made by Auto-Ordance (if I remember correctly) in the mid-70s and was aimed at the LE community. A generous supporter of our local Sheriff's department bought three of them for the department. They were a ball to shoot (a few of us non-LE people had friends that let us shoot them) and it was amazing how much damage a .22 could do at 450 rounds/minute to a solid 8" cinder block - a two inch hole all the way through it in about 15 seconds. Unfortunately, the Sheriff was afraid of publicity so they were never actually used for anything but playing at the range. I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE ONE OF THOSE!!!

The American 180? Had a 180 round drum mounted on top. Ya that would be a cool gun to own. If memory serves me correctly they were targeted for prison guard use?

Yup, that's it. Boy, it was fun to shoot.
 
Just an interesting note about Connecticut's AWB ...

Full auto is perfectly legal here, but NOT select fire - full auto or nothing.

If memory serves correct, that was the akins or atkins, something like that, accelerator. It did exactly that, accelerate the rate of trigger pull. When you made one rotation of the crank, it pulled the trigger multiple times so it wasn't truly one pull by you. The slidefire is legal because your finger is what's actually hitting the trigger, it's just inertia and your opposing forward force that makes you pull it very rapidly.

Ok, so I shouldn't drink and reply to forums lol. The crank wheel was something completely different.They approved the accelerator because there was a prototype shipped to the batf and it malfunctioned during testing so all they had their decision based on was what they could conclude in theory by inspecting it. After it was approved, one of the employees that was involved in testing thought it was such a great idea that he went out and spent the around a thousand bucks for one. After he used it, he suggested to his supervisor they re-evaluate it. Upon re-evaluating a functional product, they determined it not to be legal. They used a bunch of loopholes here and there but what they finally decided was it was the two springs in the stock that aided in it being a machinegun. So they actually outlawed the springs from the stocks, that's why they only confiscated officially the springs from Bill Akins. They just told everyone else on his customer list that they had to turn over the entire stock, so they did. Last I heard Bill Akins was trying to bring the Accelerator back to market legally though. I'd have to look more into it that one
 
And for the record, the crank thing is called the BMF Activator. I think it's solely for the 10/22's tho. You can find them on gunbroker for like 20 bucks.
