    Hi, I've come across this forum before but had never registered. Some background, I'm originally from northern PA and grew up hunting and shooting but haven't really done any hunting since moving to MD 19 years ago. I still get to shoot a few times a year when I travel back to PA. I've been a Lifetime NRA member for more than 2 decades. We've only started purchasing our own firearms in the last few years though.

    Anyway, I'm looking at purchasing or building an AR. I'm currently looking at either the Ruger AR556 Model 8511 or building something myself utilizing Apone's sticky on the subject. I'd also like to either get a 22 conversion or perhaps a Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22. If I just get a conversion then I can utilize whatever sights etc that I have on the AR with the 22. It'd certainly be a more affordable way to shoot my AR.

    Welcome from Marriottsville. Either get a dedicated .22 upper, or buy a 15-22. Conversion kits will otherwise mess up your otherwise perfect AR system.
