ATI Omni 22 AR

[Offroad65]

Does anyone have experience with these? I went to Turners today and saw one on sale, says you can swap the upper for a 5.56 as the lower is marked "multi cal." It's $450 and the CMMG 22 uppers, and others like it I have seen usually run for more than that. Polymer upper and lower, but still looks cool. I have the Mossberg Tactical 22 but this seems more practical.

Any thoughts?

I think the upper is from Chiappa which has mixed reviews. It should have real AR parts but plastic. The Mossberg does not use real AR parts. The M&P 15-22 would be the closest thing to it.

""Memorial day""
IMHO
Save your money.
Buy a CMMG dedicated upper

Or buy an upper from TACCOM... There is a 3-4 week wait right now I think, but they are amazing.

I am not a fan of polymer lowers used for .223/5.56. How ever my dad owns a smith and wesson mp15-22 that I used to take to the range all the time untill .22lr became expensive to buy. If used for a .22lr it works great, if reliable it should be a great gun espcially if it takes the black dog and cmmg magazines.

The ATI Omni .22LR AR has a STANAG magwell and uses standard .22LR conversion magazines (Black Dog, CMMG, Ceiner, etc).

someone on ar15.com forum did a decent review of one...enough to make me pass on it. you may want to search on their forum over there

Ouch....

Chiappa isn't known for quality of any kind.

Their .22 M1-Carbine is a fine looking rifle but I just don't think the quality is there.

i have 2 chiappa uppers and both work great and are accurate.

only mod i had to do was remove bolt catch as i was hanging up bolt on 22 upper


paid 300 for first one at costa mesa and 245 for 2nd one from century(cia)
