Benelli MR1 or CMMG M4LEP22?

[pennys dad]

So, I have been saving up to buy the CMMG complete rifle 22lr.
Then I went to Turners today and saw the Benelli MR1

I want both but cant have both so which one. As for what kind of shooting both will be plinkers and Appleseeders.

oh man, i just HAD to click on this thread... couldnt leave well enough alone...

you owe me $1300, mister!

i want one of those benellis, bad.... how many payments can i miss before the bank takes my house?

I wanted one - but after reflection I think a SU-16CA is a better value and more accurate.

I will go with Benelli MR1, you can use per ban mag on it.

I ordered one a year ago and now they're on sale at Turners?
I would WAY rather have a gun that takes my 30 round pre-ban AR15 mags and was made by Benelli than a SUCK-16. How can you say they're more accurate? They're made out of the metal you wrap fish in.

Agree

that Beneli MR1 is hideous, IMO.

Go with the .22lr

[pennys dad]

Ya but its getting great reviews, but I do want the 22lr

I like the styling. It's like a combination of a Benelli M4 and an ACR.

$1500 for a .22 I would either get an Anschutz or super pimp out a 10/22
that Benelli looks like it just crawled out of a swamp

[JamminJ]

Tough choice, both are very nice but voted for the .22.

My thinking is thus: Since money is an issue the .22 will get a lot more use. Also, the Benelli rifles just hit the streets so their prices are probably as high as they ever will be. If you still have the itch, the price may be better by the time you've save enough.

Good luck either way!

The MR1 is so very ugly. Like worse than Kel Tec ugly.
