I wanted to build a dedicated 22 Long Rifle AR for some time. Sure, I could have bought a conversion bolt, but I wanted an actual .22 caliber barrel with the correct twist rate, not a .223 barrel with a super fast twist rate. I also wanted it to look like a "stock" rifle. I'm not much into all the whistle and bells. I wanted the receiver marked 22LR, not MULTI. It might just be me, but I didn't want some uninformed cop thinking this is capable of shooting .223 or 5.56 since there is no bullet button on it. Along those lines is why I did not use the standard front push pin, but instead used a KNS screw type pin.
The upper is a Tactical Solutions M4 22LR upper. I removed the A3 upper receiver and replaced it with an A2 receiver. I wanted adjustable sights... The lower is a Tactical Machining pre-anodized 80% that I milled myself. DPMS lower parts kit. The markings are from Ident Marking Services (they do great work). I specifically left the "S" of the end of my marking so it would read "Tactical Solution." I wanted it close to the name of the upper, "Tactical Solutions," but not exactly the same.
MagPul MOE+ grip. The MOE+ is the rubberized version. A Visine eye drop bottle fits perfectly inside. I have CLP in it. The 22LR bolt likes to be well lubed.
Stock is a Calvary Arms A1 size stock. Note there is no buffer or spring in there. Its not needed on a 22LR.
Let me know what you think.
