Demi-human
maybe likes firearms a little bit…
Unable to control myself any longer I have given into my whims and bought a slick sided 22/9mm AR upper receiver, a rimfire bolt group and barrel collar, a couple of magazines then ordered a barrel from Beyer Barrels.
These things can be found at Righttobeararms.com. I have used before and found the parts to be of a descent enough deal for me. So, I relented. I know I’ll feel better not thinking about it, and I’ll stop skewing the numbers on visits to the site.
I haven’t seen a rimfire barrel for sale for some time. Like I say, I’ve been shopping for awhile. So I happened across an old thread here and saw Beyer’s name mentioned, so I thought I’d call him up.
Little did I know, I would be talking directly to Clint himself! I caught him at a late lunch, yet he still answered. He took my order as he microwaved something. We even had a great conversation afterwards, just about stuff. Great sense of humor! It was probably half an hour when I heard another desk phone ring and we said adios.
He tried to talk me into a hot pink one, but I resisted. Just regular black, for now. And in a 7.5” 1/16.
I got what I wanted but I get too chatty and wasted my chance at talking to a guru seriously.
(Not wasted, I know he had a good conversation too.)
But, I still have questions I couldn’t find answers to and what better place to ask them than here!
And don’t let me overwhelm you, I ask a lot of questions, you can answer just one if you want.
So without further ado, and in no particular order,
How will I be attaching the barrel collar to the chamber liner?
Is the return spring in the buffer tube enough support for the conversion bolt?
Does the conversion bolt stay in the upper when it’s open?
I only wanted an upper, because I always seem to build the same lower so I’ll just use it on my pistol receiver is that feasible with this upper?
Should it have its own lower?
Will the bolt catch still work?
Would a binary trigger work with these?
My intention is to use this suppressed, are the bolt kits tunable?
And especially, are there any speed loaders for this type of magazine?
Anything to look out for while assembling the upper?
Has anyone used a 1/9 twist barrel?
That might do it for now. I know I’ll think up something else…
