From another forum:

Quote:
It is a complete gun, the upper/lower are incompatible with any other weapon.

The stock, grip, and even trigger group can be replaced with any standard AR15/M4 part. With the exception of the rail system (the Smith comes with an integral quad rail) you can set up the gun more or less identical to your work/fighting gun. The magazines are designed dimensionally to fit in normal M4 mag pouches.

Smith is guessing they'll sell fifty thousand in the first twelve months of production. Street price is expected to be $450.

As I understand it, the topic of this thread is the 'Colt/Umarex M4 Carbine' and the quote above is referencing another product entirely, that being the Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22. Does anyone know if there are plans to make the S&W available for sale here in Canada? From the information I have read, it is superior to the Umarex product.

Thank you.

6-groove rifled barrels with rifling extending 350 mm

only the first 13 3/4" of the barrels are rifled???

 

[ruel_CZ]

[notsorichguy]

OOOOO!!!! I think I'll have to get one!!

Just saw in a thread that Wolverine will have them in June. Non-restricted.

 

[Greaves024]

So would these be a good rifle to learn how to assemble/dissassemble C7's/8's ?

We have been advised that these will be arriving in June, non-restricted, price to be confirmed. Watch this space for more details.

I hope its safe to link since it's a sponsor.

They better be cheap. And they better stay non-restricted for at least two more years.. that way I can buy one.

 

[CZ85Combat]

They better be cheap. .

Don't hold your breath

These things will sell very fast, even if close to 1k $

 

[P12]

The S&W 15-22 looks good too, I think I would go with that, and it costs $500 USD. If they end up costing between $600 - $700 CD, thats still cheaper than buying a 10-22 and makeing it look like an AR.

An 8.5" Grizzly for a 16" barrel or a 12.5" Grizzly for a 20" barrel under that would make it perfect IMO.

If its reliable I may pick one up and a Grizzly.

I can just imagine using this thing to hunt some rabbits, lol! I hope it stays non restricted.

 

[P of PDent]

We have also ordered these guns along with numerous other dealers. We hope for the best (delivery...non-restricted) but always expect the worst. Phil.

 

[TheGamerXxX]

Is it me or do the mags in those look freakishly long? (im guessing 27rds?)

I want a .22 in non-restricted (AR or the GSG5) that I got to start considering moving down south of the border lol

[Soli]

They look ridiculously long indeed, but I'll be damned if that'll become an impediment to me purchasing one!

 

[Mercury0_0]

They hold 30rds that's why. Rimfire goodness!

 

[misfire]

I want one!!! And a couple of extra magazines......
