target practice won't slow down to much - it will just be more plinking with 22 lr. Thank God for buying those federal bulk packs back when they were around $10 for 550.

It seems everywhere I've looked is just about sold out of 22 LR. The Gander Mountain in Lansing, MI has 900 round plastic ammo cans of cci stingers and they also have some of the choot 'em swamp edition 375 round boxes of 22 lr mini mags still in stock as of yesterday afternoon - but my thoughts are those are still in stock because they aren't in the same area as where the rest of the 22 LR should be. They also had cci plastic cans of 17hmr. So for those looking, check out the endcaps or other displays and you might find what you're looking for.

Hey 4th, remember me wanting to build a shortie AR after Christmas? Bad timing on my part,LOL! I was able to secure a complete lower from Simply Tactical here in town. Its on its way. But as far as the rest of the parts go I'm pretty much SOL. If anybodys got a 10-11" bbl for sale let me know. If not I'll take your advise and sit back with a beer and watch the show.

if i was really hurting for a barrel right now i would check over at sportsmans guide they had some 16" barrels for $89 --you can probably get a discount code and get at least another $10 off. (if they got any left--they did last time i looked)

then it is hacksaw, re-crown and tap threads to your length.

there are a few barrels left at M&A parts --but man their pricy-- like $250--

there are still a few parts around --even the little things from oddball vendors are running out this time.


you might get a LMT from matt D tactical -- upper for retail (about $475) expensive for a bare upper but very high quality part.

looks like they only got 16" and 14.5" left and a few goober expensive piston jobs--

the irony is an expensive tier one as the mall-ninjas say at its inflated retail price is NOW THE the "deal"-- man has the world turned upside down--LOL!

I had considered the hacksaw method, may have to go that route.

they keep the cheap stuff hid -- this is what i would get00 you'll likely have to open up the gas port --
