I just called S&W and they will be released within the next 2-4 weeks.

It would NOT be FID-legal, as it is sold in "free states" by the mfr with 25 rd mags.

The above is in accordance with the latest info provided in the MA Firearms Law Update by Chief Ron Glidden back in May.

Sorry.

 

[Jay G]

Hmmm. $499 MSRP. Means it should (theoretically) hit stores at, what, between $400 - $450 or so?

Yeah, I think my plans for a 10/22 just changed...

 

[Mike-Mike]

I wish we could convert preban mags for it??

...and I can already feel my wallet getting lighter.

 

[Mikey]

What a great first gun for a kid too, pretty cool idea from S&W.

 

[glide]

Anyone know if the sig 522 has a polymer upper/lower?

I'm still trying to decide which of these I want for a .22

 

[stinx]

if they could mod that thing to take 10/22 mags ID buy one. I must have at least 30 preban mags for that little rifle.

I just got an e-mail from the S&W 1852 club that said the version for those in free America will be out in August. Those of us who are under an oppressive regime in Ma. and elsewhere will have to wait till Oct. according to the e-mail.

It's a rifle, right? Why would you have to wait for it to be sold by MA dealers to buy it?

You don't, but you would have to swap out the collapsible stock and fire single-shot until you could get a ten round mag.

i forsee a massave mark up. just watch,

we managed to get 5 of these, they are back-ordered through Fall 2010. we are working with our distributor to acquire more. ACT NOW.​

i would be surprised IF they list for less than $750.

Yeah, well, supply, demand, that old song and dance. I'd rather get a preban AR first, but that's just me.

yup. same here.

edit:

got the e-mail from the 1812 club today too.

The M&P15 rifle line has expanded to now include the new M&P15-22. Chambered in .22LR, the M&P15-22 rifle is built with high strength polymer upper and lower receivers. This creates a reduced weight rifle that retains the looks and operating features of the standard M&P15 rifle. The M&P15-22 will be available in August 2009 and the fixed-stock Compliant model October 2009. Order now from your favorite local dealer!

 

[second]

Well its almost October.................

 

[iefstath]

i picked up both the colt licensed dedicated .22 and this s&w dedicated .22, they were both pieces of SH*@... Both went back into the boxes and my dealer sent both back to the distributors. Maybe I just got extra lucky with 2 total pieces of SH*@ but now Im holding out for the sig 522.

 

[exo]

Any idea on the street price? If it sold for anything close to MSRP I'd rather spend the money on a dedicated upper.

Holy crap. I think my thoughts on a new .22 rifle may have very well changed.

 

[dixidawg]

And Ruger just announced this little gem.

 

[ChevyGuy91]

There was a guy at the labor day Appleseed in Pelham that had a S&W .22 AR. It looked kind of cool, and the right up I read in this months issue of shooting made it out to be a pretty good training rifle. I think I want one, if there were .22 tactical training courses or match's, but as for Appleseed's, I will stick with my 10/22's.

My $.02

That video makes me want one

I have to admit, I got a tingle up my leg watching that.....

best part about the ruger is that it takes the regular ruger 10/22 mags, which is pretty awesome

Looks to me like Ruger made a deal with this company:

Ya but too bad it has to be bastardized to be allowed behind enemy lines. Pinned stock and barrel that's hack sawed.

 

[PaulD]

The SR22 is cool but there are plenty of other options to make a 10/22 tacticool. Fulton Armory makes a nice setup.

 

[icyclefar]

If you've got a preban 10/22 and you buy the Nordic Components kit, you can have all the goodies.
