I have one, if you want to develop a modifying addiction it's the gateway drug of AR style rifles. Enjoy!

If you don't mind me asking, where did you get it from?

I'd also like to know where you got it from, how much it was, what model it is etc.

I'm looking for a gun to replace the SIG522 I sold, and the primary requirement is reliability even after firing 500 rounds through a moderator without being cleaned.

Does anyone have pictures of the bolt face and the barrel/feed ramp area of a 15-22?

There were plenty at the Northern Shooting Show at the weekend. IIRC Cheshire Gun Room and EMRR had them there.

I've fired well over 800rds before cleaning it with no issues at all, however only about 200 of those were with a moderator attached. I have also fitted a Voltquartson (spelling) extractor to mine which gives more positive ejection (nothing wrong with the factory one but as this is a competition gun I want it as good as it can be).

If no one provides the photos i'll try to remember to do them tonight :good:
