Well after using my CMMG .22 adaptor in my AR-15 for some time, I decided that I might as well make a dedicated .22 upper with some of the parts that I had laying around. Figured I would enjoy something with the correct twist rate, as well as not having to worry about fowling up my gas system.
Of course once I had a dedicated upper, I decided might as well add a lower and have another AR!
Here is my AR-22, any feedback appreciated! Will probably run it with the scope more than the cheap-o irons, but I had an amazon gift certificate so I decided to put it to use! Sorry for the crappy cell phone photos.
Parts List
Total= $392.25 w/ DROS
Started off as a bunch of parts...

And final result.


With the cheap-o irons.

With its big brother.
