Ultimate AR-15/.22" Conversion Giveaway

I didn't know it would come in pieces.

I think they meant it to come in pieces, but I think there was a logistical problem.  Anyway, I have all the necessary pieces to shoot it, so I will try to on Monday after work, assuming the roads are not washed away.  The only thing I am missing is the laser grip, but it should arrive soon.  I will be sure to write back either with a range report or with a tow truck order, to get the car out of the river, late Monday evening.

Here's to hoping for the former.

A flooded car and tow truck bill are a small inconvenience to keep us happy.

[deamonpi]

Phew, no flooded car or tow truck bill.

This thing is fun,  It shoots great, the trigger doesn't seem to be mushy, but what do I know.  I only had one FTF, but with 22 ammo that's really good.  Accuracy is good, 50 yd zero, shooter's accuracy needs work though.  This thing will be a great training tool.  The scope works really well and is easy to adjust.  This thing works so well I'm at a loss of what to say.  Anyway here's some porn.





Any questions please ask.

Thanks demonpi. I'm glad you've enjoyed OUR gun. Seriously, I would like to hear a little about your travails in putting it toghther and bore sighting etc. I know a lot of us are considering an AR kit pacakage, with a barrel from here, a lower receiver from there etc. If you're not an expert, so much the better. Neither are we. Some real world advice is always good. Once again I wish you th joy of he gun.

I don't know any thing about bore sighting, all I did was aim for X, shoot, aim for X, adjust crosshairs to impact location, and voila...zeroed.  Thankfully I had the 12 power scope so its easy to see where I hit.  Otherwise I'd have been zeroing for a while.

Nice..............................finally.

If you get bored with it, just send it my way. I'll even pay the shipping.

And right there you answered one of my big questions about the rail system. If it was good enough you could slide on a scope and get on paper without boresighting it, I'm relieved.
Thanks
FQ13 who thinks we need more non-expert to non-expert advice here so that those of us who are just muddling through can learn and help each other.

I got the trick from Tom Gresham, but yeah, the first shot was on paper, and only about 2 MOA off, vertical and windage.  Now the windage may have been off more because I had about a 15 MPH crosswind.  A flag would have been stretched straight out.
