    Default .22 Conversion Kit

    Looking to get a .22 conversion kit for my AR. Anyone have any recommendations on one.

    Thanks.

    If you're looking to be able to swap back and forth, the CMMG kit is great. Works reliably and is very easy to change back and forth.

    It's just a drop in bolt and .22lr AR magazines. They have them in Colorado compliant versions as well.

    Have you thought about just getting an MP 15-22? The cost difference is negligible when you look at the benefits of a dedicated one.

    That's also a great option.

    FYI...I linked to the manufacturer's website. You can usually get the conversion kit for around $190 at internet vendors like Primary Arms or Cheaper Than Dirt (where I got mine).

    Thanks, that's the product I was looking at, just wasn't sure on its reliability and wondering if anyone had any first hand knowledge. I also so the other link you posted. Thanks for the feedback.

    That's actually an option I had not considered as I didn't realize the option was so inexpensive.

    I've enjoyed mine. Keeps me from having to clean the barrel free of lead in my regular AR after a shooting session. Functions well. Very lightweight. Good trainer for the cost and good for introducing people to ARs without the high cost of ammo. I have two. It's the only gun I've liked well enough to buy it in duplicate.

    Are you required to use only lead or can you copper in the conversion kit? My other hang up is that I own a Walther P22 and my wife owns a Sig Mosquito. I believe both like a little better ammo with Copper plated rounds. My 10-22 will shoot anything of course. I just prefer to buy bulk in one kind of .22

    I'm unsure about the CMMG ones. But either way you would want to clean after use in a regular AR.

    I have used a variety in one of the 15-22 to check function, but in general I use the Aguila copper plated stuff.

    Just checked Target sports on ammo, out of curiosity on the current ammo situation. Everything except .22 is in stock.
