    DeAR22 and use the stock upper, or do like I did and print a BCA upper (already notched for 22LR side charger) and drop it on your favorite lower. Files are sailing on both of those - you will want the rail version since the 22lr bolt doesn’t really need a buffer tube (unless you just want to have a buffer tube mounted brace/stock). Oh, and I also ended up making a modified proto-barrel using carbon tube and .375mm .22LR sleeve from Chaszel. I can send you the STL’s if you want - even made a jig to get the extractor filed down easily :)

    I will warn you up front - that 22LR from BCA is heavy for a 22. If I had to do it again I’d just use their bolt or make one (working on that jig now too hehe) and print/build anything else.

    Another fun build is anything 10/22 related. You can even print a 10/20 bolt and add some additional weight to her so she can cycle std CCI (1050fps) rounds all day long. Plus the 10/22 just fuckin’ rocks for plinking.








  • Yeah I’m going to slap the can on my Anschutz 22 and see how it compares to this short barrel. This ammo should have been fairly quiet just by virtue of it being a subsonic round but we’ll play around a bit. I think I have some std CCI around here somewhere I can compare with just for giggles.

    How do you like the baby barret build? It’s still on my radar… after like 3 other builds to finish lol. I’ve had this damn Urutau build kit on my desk for months :|
