May I also reccomend this, if you are looking for a high capacity .22.
It's a Kel-Tec SU22. Comes with a 27 round mag. They also now make ten round mags, and you can fit two in the stock. The first pic is the weapon out of the box. Second is with the added accessories, B.S.A. 40mm red dot $50, collapsible vertical grip $20, and flash hider (for looks) $8.00. Just a consideration, I paid $390 out the door, and the cheapest 15-22 I have seen around my area is $499. It has fired every ammo I have put through it. Except Remington Golden Bullet. This round, has caused a lot of problems in a lot of semi auto rifles from what I have read. Also CCI likes to put a lot of wax on their rounds. The wax causes the mag follower to gum up. Sometimes, you can find some without a ton of wax or you can clean it off.

The M&P-15/22 makes a LOT more sense to me than the Colt/Umarex mutt. I like the fact that real AR stock bodies, pistol grips and trigger groups will fit without modification. I'm not wild about the all-plastic construction, specifically the upper and the molded-in receiver extension, but I'm not aware of widespread reports of structural issues, either. Pat Rogers has been abusing a couple of them in his classes and has given them good marks. I still have no desire to own one.

My wifes uncle has one and it is nice...I like my GSG a little better though.
I got mine from Bob at PSS for $430 OTD at the 1500, and around the Indy area I have seen them for very close to $400 w/out tax. Keep in mind that factory 26 rd Kel-tec mags cost nearly double what factory SW MP15-22 26 rd mags cost. It also costs $130 bucks to add an AR type collapsable stock to the Keltec.
My son wants a 22 rifle and honestly, the Ruger 10/22 does not do anything for me, but these tactical version get me excited about buying one.
I liek the fact that it is light weight and has an adjustable stock because the gun can "grow" with my son, as he grows. But I am open to suggestions

Do you have an AR? Just buy a CMMG conversion (.22lr) kit for it and mags. You now have 2 rifles in one! Works for me. Plus, you don't have to change scope settings on the AR to shoot .22lr out of it. Just a thought.
I have found that I love to shoot .22lr just as much as anything lately.

No but I like the way you think!
A buddy of mine has 3 and he wants me to buy one, what does the conversion cost?
Here is a sale for $180, if you spend $200 on this site you get free shipping. To me, it's an excuse to get a couple more CMMG mags with the kit!
CMMG drop in .22 conversion kit
I've spent too much money on that site. Always a right order, always the best prices. SOMETIMES, Aimsurplus has a little better prices on ammo... sometimes.
Buy a complete AR and this kit. You now have two rifles. You can pimp out the AR and use the same scope settings, sight settings for the .22lr out to about about 70 ish yards (depending on variables) dead on. The rounds travel about the same.
Esrice on this site has a CMMG kit review in the rifle thread I think on it.
Heck, you could shoot mine if you are close enough to drive and meet me at the range.
If you're willing to spend $$$ for a 'real' AR get it and the conversion for 22lr. Yes it will be twice as expensive BUT you will be able to shoot 223 and 22lr and have a real AR.
I am not (or at least not yet) convinced of these 22lr AR clones

I was just trying to give options. Personaly I like the fact you can fit, extra mags in the stock. Also I do not care about having, a colapsable stock. So the 15-22 mags are around $15? Because the Kel-Tec mags can be had for $30. Not bad for a high cap mag.
I just bought an M&P 15-22 last week. Walked into the local shop to kill some time. Walked out with the 15-22 and a new Buckmark. I've put about 500 rounds through it so far with no problems. It's a fun little gun.
I bought an extra mag for the 15-22 for $19.

Gonna get one of these for my son's birthday in March, my wife said that she would shoot a .22 rifle or pistol but no 9mm or .40, .45 pistols,,,,
so this will serve three purposes, the son and wife can shoot it and I can play too!
A Fore Grip and a Red Dot will trick it out,,,,,it was pointed out to me that the 15-22 now come with threaded barrels which I prefer,,, thanks
then I can begin to save and shop for my August birthday,, AR style!
If anyone sees a good deal before March 12th, drop me a PM

The new M&P-15/22s have a 1/2"-28 threaded muzzle with a real (not fake) A2 flash hider. I believe S&W still manufactures the naked-muzzle version for states still suffering under an "assault weapons" ban.
So I have the one with a flash hider I purchased from Bradis not too long ago.
I asked and he wasn't sure but said he didn't think it was threaded. Is this threaded under the flash hider? (ie. can I take it off and add a suppressor if I decide to go that route?)
