.22lr AR upper

[seadoodr.]

So who makes a decent, reliable .22 upper you can slap on a standard lower for some low cost plinking? What are you running and how do you like it?

I have 2 Chiappa uppers and never had a problem with them. Keep them lubed like a regular upper and it will last a very long time. Accuracy and reliability are both very good. One has a poly lower so it's very light and suitable for the grand kids to shoot.

I vote for CMMG dedicated 22lr uppers fed via blackdog machine mags and drums.

The Chiappa's use Blackdog mags and drums too.

Chiappa on my Cav Arms lower is a perfect match very accurate and lightweight . No problems with bulk .22 ammo either feeds everything I put in it .

I have a DPMS .22 upper. It is aluminum and steel. It uses Black Dog mags. So, far it is 100% reliable with high velocity and standard velocity ammo. It is far more accurate than I expected. The finish is a perfect match for my lower. I have also heard good things about the CMMG unit. I got my DPMS .22 upper from MidwayUSA. With my birthday discount, it was a good deal. I had to get on the waiting list, because these units sell out quickly. Midway notified me when one was available. Here is a link to the one I have: DPMS AR-15 AP4 A3 Flat-Top Conversion Upper Assembly 22 Long Rifle 1

+3 for CMMG. I've got a rifle length PRI CF forearm on mine. Currently it has the Millet DMS glass on in. I've shot it using both the grey CMMG and Blackdog magazines. I prefer the Blackdog ones. Just make sure to check the feed lips, they crack if you're over aggressive.

I have a Chiappa upper also, and am very pleased with it. I bought it a couple of years ago for $275 and have shot a couple of thousand rounds threw it with no problems and it is very accurate. I put Magpul furniture on it and it looks great.
