Old TV decided to no longer want to turn on; the fix on it is prob 20 dollar part with 200 dollar repair bill (if I am lucky).

TV died, bought nice stand for new TV, got the crud - toast for about 6 days...then it rained, and rained....I was about to pickup a nice 58" TV to replace my old Sony one....then I eyeballed a nice 50" TV that had a fantastic display.

For over $200 dollars less

The new TV stand I think; well - it is my new TV stand; just not sure if I will use that with the new TV.

I'm a tv hoarder. I have enough that I have spares for some stupid reason. I have one that no "professional" will fix, but we're gonna send it. ($1800 TV with 1 led in the backlight out).
Gonna drink some beers and attack it like a true redneck, with fishing line.

My bird even has her own tv

I want to put together a 22LR ar, was planning to use this kit, plus build an upper with an actual 22LR barrel... is this a good plan? Any suggestions on a cheap decent barrel for the purpose?
Or should I just use a standard ar barrel?

Found 2500+ rounds of .22LR the wife had stashed in her CONEX. She needed something to shoot it up with:

I've never looked for .22 barrels for an AR to be honest. I don't have any advice for you.

I got this for my wife because she built and 80% poly receiver and just wanted this to play around with. I have a dedicated CMMG upper on an AR lower that works just great.

If it were me, right now, I'd probably just buy a new S&W .22 rifle or something similar. Palmetto has the S&W .22 rifle w/3 mags and a case for $419 right now...assuming you're still in TX.

Green mtn barrels.

I used a standard ( 1:12) AR bbl, that was cut down and repurposed in to a 6" 22 pistol.

I tried the standard AR barrel but the accuracy was not good. Fine if you just want to throw bullets in the targets direction and kick up dust.
I used it for Scouting bit was frustrating for the Scouts when they could not hit the targets consistently.
I did find a AR-22 barrel with a 1/12 twist rate and included the feed ramp adapter.
What a difference that made!!! I was shooting rounds into the same hole at 50 yards and hit after hit on 6 inch plates at 100 yards.
I would build the dedicated upper. To me it was worth it.

Definitely what I was looking for... Did that still use the CMMG BCG/Mags, or some other setup?

[TEAMRICO]

CMMG BCG and mags but he barrel will need the collar replacement the replaces the .223 shaped casing.
The better the ammo the better the performance.

Finally, after all these years, I was able to get one my bucket list guns, an MP5. Also picked up a couple others as well. Hot rod 43x and a Canik Rival.

I just did a thing I've been waiting months for. Got myself a brand spankin' new Chevy Colorado. Been a long time since I've owned a pickup.

Sweet. I've been drooling on a new Tacoma for a while. Very close to saying f it and pulling the trigger.
