.22 LR conversion for .223 AR ...whats good?

[FirstBMW]

I would like to get a .22 conversion kit for an AR, but do not know too much about them.

Who has one?
How does it work?
Who makes a good one?
What do they cost?
Etc

Although I have a colt 22LR conversion kit which works flawlessly, I'm considering in getting a dedicated 22LR upper.

Reason is more accuracy and less fouling of the 223 gas system.

My Colt unit also works well. Advertise, you might be able to find a used one.

Had a Colt one, the only problem with it was the 10 round mags....not big enough!

I now run a Ceiner, and it's a bit finicky when it comes to ammo selection.

22 Conversions

About a year back, Marstar had a CZ upper that looked both pretty good and pretty pricey. Does anyone have experience with that unit? Thanks.

Good question, I remember when they came out and then nothing was ever said?

I have a Colt that works perfectly. I scooped it in the original package for $150 a few years ago!

I `m just wondering, i`ve heard the Ceiner are ammo finicky, what do you have best luck with NS.

my ceiner ran best with CCI Standard. everything else ran 70% or less. don't waste your money with the walmart bulk boxes.

Remington Thunderbolt was a complete waste of effort.

Winchester T-22 seems to work VERY well with mine.

No prob.

Some of the Federal Bulk-box stuff at Walmart worked reasonably well, but I had a few stoppages in the box of 550. Probably 5-8. Not bad, but still not terribly reliable. I'm gonig to stick with the T-22.
