So really in the past week I have been comparing the SR-22 to the M&P 15-22.
Both seem to be quality guns and I am pretty sure that I will end up with one or the other. I have not shot either and have not handled the SR-22 since I am pretty sure it has not actually hit the streets yet.
SR-22
Advantages
-Uses 10/22 mags which are cheap and availible
-10/22 action
Disads
-No open sights
-No rails
-some controls are not the same as the AR and instead are 10/22 controls
M&P 15-22
Advantages
-Rails
-Factory equipped with open sights
-Larger mags out of the box
-AR controls
Disadvantages
-Proprietary magazine
I didn't cover price because we don't know what the real street price of the SR-22 will look like but chances are they will be close.
If you can think of more comparison please do. For right now my choice is going to be the M&P 15-22 but I think that really comes down to it having open sights.
