I was thinking more about the zombie rabbits. Why waste the big ammo on those little buggers?

Nice for plinking if you are into rapid fire mode.
Me, I prefer a good bolt action, heavy barrel .22 LR's for accuracy and low a fire rate.....for rabbits.

I have the SD version with the telescoping stock and a red dot. Excellent little plinker. My wife and I have fired thousands of rounds through it and haven't had the first problem. Love it.

Thanks, that's the stuff I am looking for. Not much negative on the internet either.

They are very cool. Heavy as a real MP5. If you get one with the fake suppressor, read up on them and make sure it's the right one. The BATF recently ruled that one version was illegal because it could too easily be converted into a functional suppressor.

Mine fell into that category, ATI recalled the part though and shipped me the new ATF compliant one free of charge. Piss on the ATF, they really have nothing better to do than pick on small companies for a BS claim of being able to modify the end shroud...

< $400 depending on how well you shop around. It's the accessories that get you. But then again, all my hobbies seem to work out that way.

I was at our local range a couple of weeks ago plinking the .22 metal targets with my M&P-15/22. A dude at the range had one of these and we'd race each other to see who could knock down the most targets. These things are a blast. Get one. Get two. You know you want it.
They get pretty good reviews on every gun forum I check out.

OK went to the Armory at lunch to fondle it. It felt good! Man I walked out of that shop in awe of what can be had for $1500 or so. They had a fully decked out M4 that was freaking SWEET. Mini Uzi, MP5, HK91-92, AK74, AK47.
With the demonstation of the "bullet button" my faith in owning "assault" weapons in Kalifornia has been renewed.
Our only true limitation is no mags over 10 rounds now.

Very nice, what scope is that? I was looking at several optics options and it seems since its a 22 LR one would not have to go with super high dollar optics. I found a decent looking halographic for around $100.

I just received my lower parts kit and A2 buttstock kit in the mail yesterday. Going to spend part of the weekend building that lower. Hope to save enough next month for the upper.

It is a Bushnell Trophy red dot scope. I've also had good luck with Barska halo sights on .22s
