deni 16 Posted September 24, 2010 I was considering the M&P 15-22 but with the pricepoint of the Mossberg Tactical I think it wins! What say you? The lightweight and fast-handling Tactical .22 parallels the look and feel of today’s AR-style rifle while being built around Mossberg International’s reliable .22 autoloader. Taking cues from their proven 702 autoloader' date=' the Tactical .22 matches an 18” barrel to a quad rail forend allowing the operator to fit the rifle with lights, lasers or other tactical accessories. Two stock configurations will be offered in this series: a six-position adjustable and fixed stock. The six-position polymer stock adjusts the length of pull from 10-3/4” – 14.5” accommodating youth and smaller framed shooters up to adults. The fixed position stock has a standard 13” LOP. The Tactical .22 is integrated with an A2-style carry handle and an adjustable rear sight aligned with a front post sight. The Picatinny handle mount is included, allowing versatility in scopes and other optics while providing the clearance necessary to utilize the AR-style sights. Other features included with the Tactical .22 are sling mounts and a ten round magazine.[/quote'] Eventually want to get a big boy AR rifle but this will have to do for now. Something my girlfriend and I can both enjoy and at some point my younger brother. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shane45 807 Posted September 24, 2010 I hate to sound....negative but that just does not strike me as a quality or anywhere in the vacinity of quality item..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deni 16 Posted September 24, 2010 I hate to sound....negative but that just does not strike me as a quality or anywhere in the vacinity of quality item..... it's all good... i mean i haven't seen it in person myself but i'll save judgement for when i get to hold one. out of curiosity though what about it makes it seem of lower quality? i know you're one of the more knowledgeable persons on here regarding ARtype stuff Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shane45 807 Posted September 24, 2010 Its hard to tell from the pic but it looks all polymer to me. Not neccessarily a bad thing but all junction points look...weak(where the stock meets the reciever, barrel meets reciever. Maybe Im being way to critical ( I tend to do that) at the price point of the offering.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krdshrk 3,878 Posted September 24, 2010 You really can't tell from pics - you have to see when people first get their hands on it. CTD already has it listed.... heh. http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/69670-1.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfy 51 Posted September 24, 2010 The big advantage to the 15-22 is it is the most authentic as far as fit and function to the real AR. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
civictuner04 6 Posted September 25, 2010 This is the plinkster in a new body save yourself the money. my first gun purchase was a plinkster along with 15 mags for it. the gun has never worked right. i never had a fail to fire but i've had a ton of jams like 1 or 2 per mags. not fun if you want just a 22 and have patience i'll sell you that but cant say i didn't warn you.......

deni 16 Posted September 25, 2010 back to the drawing board then i guess i'll skip the 22 and go straight to 223/5.56- then at least i can post with the men in the AR Discussion forums... but really- the pricepoint is really attractive but I will wait and see what initial reviews are. 1/10 jams might be a headache but 1/100 is certainly tolerable so we'll see!

civictuner04 6 Posted September 25, 2010 you could even do a cheap ar build it would be under $600 or piece on together, then get a 22 kit for it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vladtepes 1,060 Posted September 25, 2010 i guess i'll skip the 22 and go straight to 223/5.56- then at least i can post with the men in the AR Discussion forums... That's what I would do.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris327 30 Posted September 29, 2010 anyone know if dicks is carrying this as they do normally carry mossberg products at reasonable prices? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dave545 15 Posted September 29, 2010 not that i have seen, also your GF can more than likely handle a 5.56/ .223 they have barely any recoil, ahh the glorified .22 i love it, just think of the .22 lr with a huge bang and a lot more accuracy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dave545 15 Posted September 30, 2010 also i have the 15-22 and AMAZING, so much more accurate than any conversion kit for a standard AR Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
