      The Archangel is a plastic POS. You couldn't PAY ME to install it on one of my guns.

      The Nordic is a very nicely machined all-metal kit that allows you to use standard AR furniture.

      Do it right, do it once, get the Nordic.

        plastic vs metal
        cheap(er) vs kinda pricey

        better feel with the nordic and you can use your favorite rail with the nordic kit and your favorite stock.

        Nordic AR22 Official "Post Your Pictures" Thread There are quite a few Nordic threads around and I would really like to see a common point for folks to post pics of their completed projects. It's still fine to start your own seperate "This is My Nordic Gun Build" thread, but it would be really...

        cruise this thread. it should put your mind to rest.

          and if you shop @ the
          Private Firearm Parts & Accessories Sales
          you can gather AR components.


          I had a Archangel and sold it.
          I now have a Nordic and love it.

            Ok, sounds like the Nordic is taking it so far. Any leads on a site to buy it?

                  There are two great 10-22 conversion kits worth owning and they are heavy duty metal affairs -- no plastic -- 1) the fungun 10-22 Thompson kit --




                  and the Nordic kit - which Ruger liked enough to put on the guns they brand "SR-22"



                  Either one of these kits (depending on whether you want new tactical or OLD SCHOOL tactical) will make you VERY happy...

                    So I can use it with a 16" bull barrel, my choice of stock and grip and still be CA compliant. Can I put any rails on it? Does the kit just drop in?

                          Nordic vs. archangel

                          So glad I came across this site. Been thinking about the Archangel. Nordic looks sweet, has some good reviews from members.
