I think a dedicated upper is the way to go honestly put as far as drop in units what do you guys prefer? I have a Spikes and Cmmg. Don't hear good things about Ciener. Like Cmmg mags slightly better than Black Dogs.
How does the Spikes work for ya??
I've got an actual Ciener kit that's worked like a champ for about 10k rounds. I keep meaning to take it down to MAS and have him polish the rails and everything up. I'm running the Black Dog mags in mine with no problems there either.
The Spikes has a chrome finish and also comes with O rings which the Cmmg does not. However for some reason the Cmmg seems a little heaver duty. Both work fine though I had to cut a few coils off the recoil spring on the Spikes.
I am just posting to tag this thread. I am looking at Spikes and Black Dog Machine (Tactical Solutions). Comments??? I am leaning toward the Black Dog and keeping an eye out for a good deal on a lower and eventually putting together a dedicated .22LR AR.
Got an original colt for mine. Came with the gun new. Works just great for short range 22 plinking.
Have you tried the Colt with any other mags then the Colt mag that came with it? I am looking for a nice used one to put with my H-bar shooter.
Nope............just always used colt mags with the weapon. Both the 22 and the 5.56
