You don't need a bullet button when you have a dedicated .22 upper. It is considered a rimfire weapon. BUT if you decided to swap out the upper for a center fire one, you'll need the BB.

Also, using a high cap 22lr magazine makes it an assault rifle. 10 rounders only.

Edit:: mixed up my rules. Just ignore my post.

Really now? With a post count of 700, I think you should know better. I have a feeling you mistyped that.

You do not need a bullet button for rimfire firearms.

Wrong... If you LEGALLY own a high cap .22LR magazines you may use them.

i have the Spikes Tactical .22lr, ST-22, a dedicated .22lr AR; it is marked "22lr" on the lowers.

when i purchased it, i also purchased a BB and a 5.56 upper to go along with it...

you get the best of two worlds.
