Hopefully this a sign that other mfgs will get into 22wmr. I like the round as I have a pistol and lever gun. Just cant bite on BCA as Ive heard of too many issues. Buddy and I built budget ARs - he went with BCA, I went with PSA (back before they really took off). The BCA was major turd, wouldnt run.

Very cool. I have a Romeo 5 on the pistol upper and a Sniper 4-16x44 on the rifle upper. It's the same combo I am using on the .223 and .224 versions. I really wish they were all side chargers, surely do like that versus the rear chargers.

I felt that way about Taurus striker fired pistols, had two PT-111's that had the same issue of not running and have heard many stories of others having the same issue. My favorite handgun is a Taurus though....a 942 in .22 WMR...it's a blast to shoot.

I have heard of zero issues with either one of these products and I did a search on them before buying. Really glad I did.

FedEx delivered my third (2nd pistol-length) upper today, and it appears to be just as well done as the other two.

To me, these really seem to be a great-value option in the AR world.

Awesome. Can't tell you how much fun these ARs are in that round, but then again, I don't need to! grin

Took my youngest grandson to the range this morning, and he really liked shooting the short WMR uppers on one of my SBR lowers. This second pistol upper works and shoots as well as the first, so now I am three for three! smile ani

I just ordered the 16” side charging one. They came out with a normal charging handle version as well and it’s on sale for $325.

BTW if you have id.me you can get 5% off.

I love the side chargers. Just got a new mount for my scope and finished the 16" target rifle. I have the exact same setup on the .224 Valkyrie AR so I can train with the 22 mag.

Nicely done!

I'm good with the side chargers too.

Mine showed up yesterday about 30 minutes after I had left to go to the range.

If they made at least a 20 round magazine I would be in. I have an M&P 15-22 and a Tippmann M4-22 Elite. Both have 25 round magazines and that isn't enough. Too much fun double tapping and finishing with a short mag dump.

Decided on keeping the rifle and letting the pistol upper go. Listed in the classifieds if anyone is interested. Going to build another AR rifle in another caliber instead.

Noticed they have a 20" stainless steel barreled upper now. I could see getting one at some point down the line.

I am about to change the handguard on mine to match my other ARs. Going with the Atlas 1. I also mounted a Sig Romeo 5 on it and sold the scope.

Well dang, the Atlas 1 will not fit the BCA upper. Going to have to save it for another build.

I modified an Atlas S1 handguard to fit my 16" and got another AERO lower to round out the matched set. Of course the BCA upper is not Aero, nor will a standard handguard for an AR-15 fit it, until it met my Dremel. Dropped a few ounces and now all three of my ARs have the same handguard.
