Copped one for my hk mr556 a4 11 inch so i can afford to shoot it
Longjumping_Item_722@reddit
So any reason to not use this with super duper safe safeties? Would I need a different buffer weight?
TheMoves@reddit
The .22 conversion completely incompatible with super safeties, the bolt carrier doesn't actually even move into the buffer tube, all the action is internal to the BCG
100konmywristlifesux@reddit
incorrect, it can be done with a sear trip, mine's one of the most fun guns i own
TheMoves@reddit
Oh shit, do you have to print the trip or are people selling them?
100konmywristlifesux@reddit
the printed ones came first, borebuddy and deez nutz have aluminum ones
dberto@reddit
CMMG started selling them as well. https://cmmg.com/auto-sear-trip-kit-22lr-ar-conversion

I’ve been researching this and about to buy. Did you get everything from cmmg?
100konmywristlifesux@reddit
cmmg barrel/bolt/collar, borebuddy trip kit/bolt weight, 3d printed charging handle insert/bolt buffer (neither really necessary)
which bolt weight you need depends on your barrel length and suppressor, the shorter the barrel the less weight you need and the harder it'll be to get running
Early-Series-2055@reddit
Did single fire stay the same? I was going to start out with the bore buddy and cmmg bolt and three mag kit and see how it works in a 16” 5.56 PSA upper. I’ll probably need to buy a barrel I guess.
Psychological-Drive4@reddit
The BB bolt has all the upgrades you will end up doing anyway
100konmywristlifesux@reddit
yeah it stays the same. you don't need a new barrel, just swap the collar for the adapter (comes with p/n 22BA651 that you're probably looking at)
BobbyFuckingB@reddit
Colt vs CMMG conversion?
Footlover734@reddit
CMMG has better mag compatibility. Significantly. Very few aftermarket ar22 mags will work with the Colt, and OEM were impossible to find about a year ago. Almost everything will work with CMMG kit.
secksyman6667@reddit
the oem mags for the cmmg absolutely blow. can never get them to run more than 5 rounds without jamming. drums on the other hand run all 50 no problem
DeadbeatPillow1@reddit
Not my experience. Although I have an older model. Maybe the newer ones suck.
Psychological-Drive4@reddit
they do, Kriss mags are the best
SacraficeMyGoat@reddit
According to borebuddy, the newer Colt kits are just rebranded CMMG.
cyclorphan@reddit
CMMG is the standard, including for using the BoreBuddy trip with an FRT.
MezzanineMan@reddit
CMMG has awesome customer service and warranty. Replaced my broken .22 firing pin (after thousands of rounds) within a week, with no questions asked. All I provided was just a picture; was really impressed.
TheMoves@reddit
I think the CMMG is preferred, Fast Ammo has them for $139, idk if they do tax or shipping
Electronic-Tea-3912@reddit
Fast ammos shipping prices always make me skip
JustBman@reddit
Went up to $149.99
Royal-Recognition416@reddit
Frt compatibility?
Powerful_Wishbone25@reddit
These can be made to work. It is a finicky platform. Some folks seem to get it to work first try, others throw the kitchen sink at it to no avail.
I’m going to sound like a boomer, but there is a Facebook group for super safety frt 22lr that is probably the best resource around.
TheMoves@reddit
Sounds good, doesn't work
91xela@reddit
I have this and through it in a cheap PSA upper, works like a charm.
HeughJanus@reddit
those mags are absolute dogshit btw. if anyone remembers there was a gundeals post about those exact mags a few years ago for $8 a piece. the follower constantly jams inside the body and just makes your bullets rattle inside and fall out if you turn it over. about the quality you would expect from czolt
