“Stay at home husband”😂😂😂😂😂 Great review mate, becoming the UK’s GT
Haha, cheers. Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻
always good to see more options in the UK 22lr area. A few years ago we was quite limited, and before that everyone was using modified 1022's.
Would be good to see a review of the l119 from cotswold classic arms as I have heard good things about them and they are similar price range like the SF-15 you also reviewed.
thanks again!
100% agree, more options and more competition in the market is good for us 👍🏻
Nice to see a good rifle 🇬🇧 made
100%
Awesome review - many thanks for turning out quality content like this, especially here in the UK. I'm leaning heavily towards this one at the moment, very much like the idea of sticking a .223 upper on to run as a straight pull.
Thanks! That’s the beauty of running a ‘milspec’ rifle over something like a smith or other dedicated 22
Vey nice, looks well made.
Yup, was a decent runner too.
Good review - looking forward to more - cheers
Cheers. More to come
Great review Bob - thank you.
Thanks. Glad you liked it 👍🏻
Great review as ever ! much appreciated! Keep them coming! 👍
Cheers. Will do 😉
got one with a reddot/3xmag/magpul stock AND it rocks :D
🙌🏻
Great Review Cheers Bob👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Can you do a video of cleaning and dismantling the gun?
I no longer have this one in, but it’s pretty much the same as any other AR15 using the CMMG 22lr bolt. There’ll be plenty of videos out there if you need 👍🏻
Looks the business mate
It was a decent performer. They’ve made a few changes since this initial version was released, I hear good things
@@Range23 sure looks it mate
Nice vid bro just wondering is the lower receiver compatible 223 uppers? Thanks 😎
Thanks. I’ve tried a couple of different uppers on it and they are tight but they do fit.
Another bang on “tip to butt” review👍🏻
Did you manage to get your hands on a Tippman yet for review?
bro, I want to ask a question, please answer, I want the process of submitting to have a martial weapon, but in my country, the law regulates that every civilian who meets the requirements can only have 2 guns and that's set in sharp ammunition cal 22, 25, 32, 12 ga shotgun, and 9mm rubber ammunition, now what I want to ask is whether there are factory-made long-barreled guns that use call 32, because my plan is to submit a 942m Taurus revolver for concealed carry, and a long barrel cal 32 for at home
If only they did a 22 WMR option
We can dream
I’ve a few of their moderators (which he doesn’t appear to advertise on his site atm) so I may have to pop over to the shop. If it’s still in the same place and have a chat.
@@aileronsintowind6835 I’ve got one of their ARMOUR mods and it’s a nice little can. Easy to clean and does a good job for its size.
@@Range23 nice dude, I’ve a couple of DUCIS OB mods.
But a 22WMR AR platform.. 😋 Santa better get his toy making arse back in the gun shed 😂🤣
any word on a 12.5 incher?
Calibre can do that.
@@davidkiddle4741 awesome!!
How hard is it to get approved to buy one of these in the uk
Very
@@turbod15 that’s what I figured. If I have 20 minutes later I might go down to the bass pro and buy one lol.
@@waimeagavin808 yeah, there’s a lot of hoops to jump through and background checks etc. to get your ticket. You also need to have ‘good reason’ to have a firearm here: sports shooting, hunting etc.
Jun join a firing range/gun club. Yearly fee about £150 but it's not exactly difficult.
Perhaps I missed it in, but are C I calling this a match grade barrel 🤔 if so how does it shape up against the Lantac. Do CI give upgraded barrel as a purchase option.
Regards
I believe these are standard CMMG barrels used by CI.
Lantac chamber the barrels themselves using a 22 benz chambering, it’s a nice touch, but to be honest, unless you’re going to be shooting precision groups with match grade ammo you won’t see any difference.
@Range23 thanks for replying
If you personally was spending your own money for a comp gun, which way you going?
@@pinotosca1213 honestly, I don’t think there’s anything between them. The CI gun is slightly lighter weight than the Lantac due to the rail, but that’s about it. It will come down to personal preference
Good industry answer lol 😆
@@pinotosca1213 😂
This is legal in the UK???
Yes, as long as you’ve got a Firearms Certificate it is
It's probably very hard to get one anyways
@@Tac_Eagle there’s a lot of hoops to jump through, and it can take a while but it’s definitely worth pursuing if your interested in getting into shooting 👍🏻
@@Range23 just to say im into 7 months waiting for my home visit so fingers crossed i say AND dont give up :D
@@Spikey1968Hi mate, just wondering how your homecheck went? What does it consist of just checking you have gunsafe & ammo safe?
how did it compare to the lantac?
They’re both milspec 22s using the same bolt/barrel, so no difference in performance there.
The M22 was the lighter build, so I’d say it’s more competition focused than the Lantac. But they’re both good rifles, it will come down to personal preference.
This or the Lantac?
There’re both good rifles and similarly priced. It’s down to personal preference really.
Kriss is Mil spec.... You stated it isn't..
Some parts of it are, but not all of them.
@Range 23 Kriss Defiiance is mil spec. Upper, Lower, butt stock, trigger, barrel and foregrip. So what part isn't?
@@camelmoove187the lower receiver isn’t fully mil-spec, the rear portion (where the buffer tube threads in) is solid.
Also, the buffer tube’s internal measurements are far too small and it’s open ended at the rear.
@Range 23 lower is milspec. Buffer tube may be solid, but it is milspec.
@@camelmoove187The lower has a solid machined/forged piece across where you would slide in your buffer and spring (as in you literally cannot use it with a standard AR 5.56 upper that uses a buffer) and it also has a different mag catch, so no, it isn’t ‘mil-spec’, because the US Military did not spec that. It may be otherwise close to mil-spec, or have mil-spec features, but it is not ‘mil-spec’.
➕Great review. Do you or anyone know if the forward assist and buffer work like the Tippmann Arms M4 .22, also I would really like to see a comparison Vid.
The gun does come with a buffer and spring but the CMMG 22lr bolt doesn’t use it.
You can also get inserts that allow the forward assist to be useable
@@Range23so if I bought one in the us I could easily convert to .223/556
@@waimeagavin808 realistically you’d have to swap the upper out for a 223 one. Whilst this is an ‘AR’, it’s got a dedicated 22lr barrel in it and no gas system.
@@Range23 oh I see. How much is the upper on its own as I’m looking for a .22 setup to save money at the range.
@@waimeagavin808 not sure for just the upper, be worth contacting Calibre Innovations directly. I think they’ve added a few options to the line up now too 👍🏻
what range do you shoot at mate?
I’m a member of NCB near Grimsby but I mainly shoot on private land
@@Range23 ah nice mate, I’m from hull myself thought you sounded close. Wanting to get into fac shooting but no idea where to start
@@BritGamingchanel cool. First thing to do is to join a club, it’s good to meet other people, try out different firearms etc. and also gives you ‘good reason’ for your FAC. There’s a few knocking about, brandesburton has one, and there’s also North Cotes near Grimsby, both worth checking out if you haven’t already 👍🏻
How much are they
*promosm*
1k of cheap 22 ammo no stoppages...really.
That’s not uncommon with a decent gun. My BoreBuddy tuned CMMG AR runs amazingly, it’s gone about 3k without an issue in the past. The only stoppages it has these days are rounds with no primer giving it a ‘click no bang’
