I'm sure you know it but why not just get a dedicated upper in .22 lr and just swap uppers on your M4 when you want to shoot. I've heard good things about the Spikes Tactical uppers. Just a thought.

Buy a conversion kit for your M4.

The problem I have with those things is do they help wear out your M4?? I mean I bought mine for a reason and I can see where you end up using the same gun and getting to know it better but is it the same?? NO. A 22 long rifle will never be the same shot as a 5.56 military round. If it was then I would buy one but to wear out my M4 with something that is not the same does not work with me.

Besides any excuse to buy a new rifle is a good excuse.

Wildcat, the whole topic was saving on ammo cost.


I like mine to train the wife and other family members with the actual weapon they would use in a SHTF situation while not costing an arm and a leg for ammo. Practice, Practice, Practice.

Plus, I don't like to shoot all of my SHTF 223 stash.

But I do agree with you on one thing, use every excuse you can to buy more weapons.
