CMMG 22LR conversion or dedicated upper/rifle

Does CMMG make a pistol length upper?

Keep in mind that if you build a RIMFIRE, AR-15 Style .22lr PISTOL that you will be REQUIRED to use a bullet button.

I mean that if you go check the flow charts you'll find a BB is required for rimfire AR-15 style pistols, but is not required for rimfire rifles of the type.

I keep pointing this out because I keep seeing pictures of and people at local ranges who are not paying attention to the flow charts.

Does anyone have any experience with the Colt .22lr? I would rather stay away from the polymer types such as the S&W simply because I like the heavier feel of metal in my hands. Still considering the CMMG dedicated upper, just curious as to people's experience with the Colt.

My friend has the Colt M4 version. As soon as he got it we took it to the range and put 200 rounds of CCI Mini mags thru it and it shot every one of them just fine. We didn't do a field strip, lube or anything prior. We went from the store straight to the range.

Handgun AW laws apply to rimfire. You can't have a handgun with a detachable magazine that is outside of the pistol grip(AR, AK, Tec-9, etc.) no matter what caliber it is, period.

Yes, the Ruger charger is an assault weapon in California if you don't have some sort of magazine lock on it.
