WHY? are 10 round magazines for M&P 15-22 so hard to find?

[cjt50]

.............................. Finally, it's my understanding that people who own both AR22s prefer the Tippman, weight of the Tippman closer to an AR15 and the mags having a large aftermarket (I think that the CMMGs will fit it). Anyone have a different opinion?

Just a heads up; the Tippmann will only work with Tippmann mags. They have had their supply problems as well. It is an industry wide issue.

I don't see a problem with an MP, Tippmann or any other similar
AR type being a bench gun.

For example, ON TH RIGHT I shot this Tippmann M4 Elete rifle with factory flip sights,on a bench, using a bipod and rear bag at 30 yds. I shot 5 rounds with CCI tactial and 5 rounds with CCI quiet.

Then I put a scope on it and shot one 5 round group with CCI quiet on a bench using a bi pod and rear bag at 30 yards.

Purchased several shorties about 3-4 yrs back. Little demand is likely the primary reason and hopefully a healthy dose of firearm unfriendly states boycott the remainder.

Here is a link to GunMag Warehouse. They have them in stock. I just bought some for my rifle. They also have the 10 rounders in the 25 round magazine length I guess for folks in restricted states that want to have a full size mag look. I'm in Texas and can have the 25 rounders but like others have said, I only load 10 at a time and don't always want that long mag hanging down when I shoot.
I don't post much here but I do as Greg G on other sites such as Jan Still's Luger site.
