My new .22 AR w/ first day report

[j10fighter]

i So i dont know if i should file down the inside on the lower or the magazine?

When I got my CMMG .22 AR, I also found the magazine to be really tight. Then I did a research on Calgun and found that I needed to sand down two protruding points on the lower side of the magazine. After I sanded them off, the magazine slides out perfectly smooth.

How much does this weigh, I am thinking this build with a pencil barrel, no fsb, and a mid length trx-e with front magpul front sight would be super light, probably turn into my girlfriends gun. With a 6'' SBR and light can it would be amazing. Kudo's on the polymer receivers, good idea

For the guys that have conversion kits and later decide to build a dedicated upper, there are kits available from CMMG minus the bolt. So you are able to use your existing bolt to save some cash.

it weighs just under 6lbs with a magazine in it but not loaded.

Wow, i really think my girlfriend would want one like this but maybe a aluminum lined barrel from tactical solutions.

Might bring it to four pounds

so i just got my primary arms micro green dot in today and i took her out and tried to sight her in....i was happy with the looks of the green dot but it didnt hold zero at all....very sad because i read a lot of good reviews on that sight for the price, I will call them tomorrow and see what they say, hopefully i just got a bad one and they fix the issue.

The complete upper is 2lbs 14 oz. Its a thin rifled steel liner, with a aluminum wrap. I bet a sbr of this would be the beez kneez.

Sucks to hear about the primary arms, I heard they were good ****. Will you be adding a 3x magnifier to this combo when the red dot is worked out

only thing i can say bad about the chiappa is it does not like winchester super-X ammo

wow only 2lbs that crazy, but at the 650 price tag that is more than my whole rifle cost lol so its a little rich for my blood, college student you know...

And ya i read a lot of good things about primary arms, i was really surprised and disappointed that it didn't work, but hopefully i get taken care of.

well i got a hold of primary arms today, Geoff was real nice and is shipping a new one out to me today and he said if im not happy with this one he has no problem giving me a refund. So im very pleased with the customer service and hopefully this next microdot works great!
