Suppressed m&p 15-22
I just got one, haven't shot it yet though. Does anyone have one and shoot it suppressed and if so, how does it sound?
Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22

Mine is cut to 4.5". It's good with the SS Sparrow but gasses with the Spectre II. it is fine with CCI MM and awesome with CCI SV. Love it.
If it doesn't splatter, shatter, burst or explode, it's not worth shooting.
Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
Where you would engrave that gun to SBR it?? Looks pretty cool!
Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
The engraving is below the "M&P" on the mag well but I blended it out for the photo.

Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
What type of mag is that? How many rounds will it hold?
Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
It's a custom job. I adapted a E&L plate to an 220 round American 180 drum with a S&W 10 round mag. It fires 203 rounds.
If it doesn't splatter, shatter, burst or explode, it's not worth shooting.
Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
Ive got one I did a lot of custom suppressor work on

Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
Mine sounds good with a Sparrow, and runs great on Eley Sport. Trigger needs a little more tweaking to get it to run with the Slidefire (though it will occasionally do mag dumps unsuppressed with HV ammo.)
Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
Cool, if it gasses withe Spectre "my fav supressor"
I bet it will run great with my octane, plenty of space in there. Should look pretty cool to. I just need to get the damn bird cage off the barrel.

Careful removing the FH on a M&P 15-22. You will need to clamp on to the barrel or you will destroy the upper or ejector.

That is frick'n nice. Were the pins walking on ya or just added insurance?strobro32 wrote:Mine is cut to 4.5". It's good with the SS Sparrow but gasses with the Spectre II. it is fine with CCI MM and awesome with CCI SV. Love it.
Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
Yes they were walking on me. I think the J spring was defective but the KNS M&P pins were actually designed around the the extra wide receiver unlike the OEM AR pins S&W uses.

They sure do put those things on pretty tight. I took mine off yesterday. Hope I didn't screw anything up in the process.....I just held the entire gun between my legs and used a 16 in adjustable crescent to take it off. Guess I'll find out this weekend when I shoot her with my Kodiak TL.
I've gotta stop this habit.
Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
Put the gun on something very soft and use a wrench on the flash hider .. Then by hitting the wrench in a very fast but light stroke it will losen it with out torque on your gunOJB4 wrote:strobro32 wrote:Careful removing the FH on a M&P 15-22.

Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
Got the bird cage off and added my octane and it looks pretty cool. I used a big cresent wrench to get the fh off.
Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
I took mine to the range for the first time last weekend sporting the Spectre. It ran great. Very fun to shot.
I put an aim point on and swapped out triggers for tomorrow's trip.
Regarding ammo. Given the craziness, I didn't want to dip into my case of CCI standard velocity or subsonic so i took the old box of Remington (remember the 525 rd open boxes) and about 60 percent went supersonic going thru about 200 rds. Tomorrow I will be taking the CCI SV. My son will be shooting the Remington from now on.
Also, I noticed that the SBR above has a different rail. I would love to change the stock MP one out. Anyone have experience with that?

Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
What do you mean by it gasses? Just curious. I have a 5.5" that I shoot with a Spectre II and I love it. Just wondering if it's a case of you don't know what you don't know or am I some how avoiding the "gassing" issue.strobro32 wrote:Mine is cut to 4.5".

Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
I meant that the Spectre II redirects more gas to my face than the SS Sparrow.
I notice it more while indoor shooting where there is no breeze. This may or may not be a problem with my drum. it's harder to hold my breath when I'm blasting through 200 continuous rounds.

Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
Just shot my s&p 15-22 and love it. It runs great on subs with octane. The thing runs good and sounds like a pellet gun.

Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
Sorry to bring this up from the dead, but what did you do to modify your bolt buffer? I want to chop my barrel to 4.5 inches as well but am conceited about reliability.strobro32 wrote:S&W M&P 15-22 SBR

Re: Suppressed m&p 15-22
The bolt buffer did not increase the reliability. It works well with ans without the buffer.
The buffer I made is cut from a 1/8 sheet of rubber. It fits behind the bolt and stays against the plastic bolt stop block. The bolt rails hold it in place. It's shaped like the profile of the bolt stop block. I did recently take it out as the sound reduction was not as good as I wanted.
BTW, Bazooka Brothers are now using my modification of the A&D plates for 165 and 200 round AM180 drum adapters. They are currently for sale.

Ok awesome, so you are not having reliability options running it after cutting the barrel down that short. I plan on running mine suppressed the entire time, so I figure I should have issues, since the suppressor should help make up for the lost barrel length.
I will have to check those mags out. They are wicked.
